Quotes by Bethany Oetken  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“My thoughts jumbled together, but I remembered that one was not supposed to make eye contact with royalty; or was that mad wolves?”
Bethany Canaan, What Thou Need'st

“Bush put both arms round Hornblower’s shoulders and walked with dragging feet. It did not matter that his feet dragged and his legs would not function while he had this support; Hornblower was the best man in the world and Bush could announce it by singing ‘For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow’ while lurching along the alleyway.”
C.S. Forester, Lieutenant Hornblower

“They were setting off on an adventure, and Hornblower was only too conscious that it was his own fault.”
C. S. Forester

“It was not a conspiratorial wink, nor did Hornblower attempt the hopeless task of trying to pretend he stuffed hot greasy sausages into his pockets every day of his life; the wink simply dared the old gentleman to comment on or even think of the remarkable act.”
C. S. Forester Hornblower and the Atropos

“Happy is the bride the sun shines on.”
C. S. Forester Hornblower and the Hotspur

“Hornblower bowed to Lady This and Lady That, to Lord Somebody and to Sir John Somebody-else. Bold eyes and bare arms, exquisite clothes and blue Garter-ribbons, were all the impressions Hornblower received.”
C.S. Forester, Flying Colours
