Susan Elizabeth Phillips cytaty

strona 2

„(…) jestem sprawna na ciele i, w miarę, na umyśle (…) i sama dam sobie radę. Być może nie zawsze z klasą, ale sobie radzę i tak będzie dalej. Nie potrzebuję bohatera.”

„Próżność to nie wada, tylko powołanie.”

„Czasami bardzo potrzebujesz przyjaciela, ale nikogo nie ma w pobliżu.”

„Umiem pływać kajakiem. Na ostatnim obozie byłam odpowiedzialna za wycieczki kajakowe dla sześciolatków.
– Wszyscy przeżyli?”

„Małżeństwo zmusza wszystkich do kompromisu.”

„Jeśli gdzieś są drzwi, to jest i próg. Nawet igloo ma próg.”

„Kiedy coś jest słuszne, nie ma się czego wstydzić.”

“If you want me, you'll have to earn me. And, mister, I don't come cheap.”

“You can't do extraordinary things in the world if you're spending time criticizing others because they don't look or behave the way you think they should.”

“There's nothing sexier in a man than intelligence.”

“I love you, Daisy. I love you so much I hurt.”

“Be quiet, or I swear to God I'll take you right here”

“Make-up? What happened? You look almost female."
"Thanks. You look almost straight.”

“It runs in the family. And don't expect me to be ashamed. Yankees lock away loony relatives, but down here, we prop 'em up on parade floats and march 'em through the middle of town.”

“Life sure is easier when you're rich."
"And a natural born charmer. Don't forget that part."
"How could I?" she retorted. "It's the only thing we have in common.”

“I don't need to be fixed anymore. That job's already been done. I love you, Annabelle.

-Heath Champion”

“His fists clenched at his sides. 'Damn it! Where's your pride?'
'Pride? It's in my heart, of course.'
'You're letting me demean you!'
She smiled. 'You can't do that. I can only demean myself.”

“I sure do miss that woman. Smart. Funny. Sweet. She never gave me a moment's trouble."

"Gosh, I'm sorry about that. I knew it was boring between you two, but not that bad.”

“I never thought I'd have to give you-a former Sunday School teacher-a lecture on ethics."
"Former Sunday School teachers don't go around without their underwear."
"You show me where it says that in the Bible.”

“He wanted to shake her until every one of her chattering teeth hit the ground. "What the hell are you trying to say? Why did she choose me?"
Jodie eyed him warily. "Because she thinks you're stupid.”

“Bobby Tom: You're supposed to be my assistant, not a baby-sitter!
Gracie: One and the same.”

“Something brushed his leg, and he gazed down into the face of Pippi Tucker. The theme from Jaws raced through his head.”

“Bobby Tom told me he’s not afraid of the Chargers’ defense.”
“Bobby Tom’ll tell you he’s not afraid of nuclear war, so I wouldn’t put too much stock in his opinion.”

“In case you still haven't figured it out, he loves you. Your tiger will be back in the morning, and you can thank me anytime. Now, do I have to paint another picture for you, or do you think you can take it from here by yourself without screwing up?”

“Ironic, isn't it, what religion does to people?"
"I guess it's more ironic what people do to religion.”

“Just out of curiosity, sweetheart; did you ever talk to your doctor about givin' you some tranquilizers?”

“[Bobby Tom] finally understood Gracie's function in his life. She was God's joke on him.”

“Meg! I love you! I want to marry you!"
"That's weird," she said without stopping. "Only six weeks ago, you were telling me all about how Lucy broke your heart."
"I was wrong. Lucy broke my brain.”

“Don't mess with me, Calvin. You'll only get hurt.”

“He sounds like Jesus. Except rich and sexy.”
“Watch it, Meg. In this town joking about Jesus could get you shot. You’ve never seen so many of the faithful who’re armed.”

“You lit into me last night. You said what I did was stupid.
- That's what my head said. But my heart… My stupid heart… Her voice broke. It was singing.”

“And put me down right this minute or I'll scream bloody murder, then do the job for real!"

"I already hid all the electrical appliances, and I'm not taking a shower without locking you in the closet first.”

“Just because you’re rivals doesn’t mean you have to be enemies.”

“The question is… How did a girl like Annabelle manage to talk a man like you into joining our silly little family party?”

Annabelle smiled sweetly. “I promised he could tie me up afterward and spank me.”

“He settled his hat back into position. She was a rookie in her first big game, and he’d never let her see how close she’d come to unseating a champion”

“Chasing after a guy who’s not interested in you will rip the hell out of your self-respect. Better to face facts now because the longer you put it off, the harder it’ll be.”
