Laird Quotes

“Being yer laird gives me the responsibility to pay attention to yer needs and see they are met whether ye wish to recognize them or not. Being yer betrothed does the same thing but it also makes me want to try to please ye. Being a man? Well that just gives me the ability to appreciate how very beautiful ye are as well as the desire to spend more time in yer company.”
― Ceci Giltenan, The Pocket Watch

“The three sisters sat together, Masie in the middle, gazing at the twinkling stars. Wee Masie squeezed her eyes closed; praying hard to the gods a shooting star would magically appear. Please, if ye grant me this one wish, I promise to eat all my cabbage. She wrinkled her nose but her promise was good.”
― Victoria Zak, Beautiful Darkness: Masie

“She knew too well the heartbreak of wanting love from someone who was not capable of giving it.”
― Julie Johnstone, When A Laird Loves A Lady

“Your lairdship will do. Or God. Call me that if ye like,” I uttered against her flesh.

“—¡Ella tiene la culpa de que estés aquí y de que me estés volviendo loco! Pero no, la señorita se empeñó en que debías ser tú quien ocupara la plaza. Y ahora soy yo el que tiene que soportar verte cada día y no tocarte, oler tu perfume, embobarme con el vaivén de tus caderas, pensar en ti a cada segundo y derretirme con tus sonrisas.”
― Laura Nuño, Highlander tenías que ser

“While the estate team's defence may have been relevant to some of the Belleville properties, when applied specifically the the farms of Easterton and Westerton of Glenbanchor it was at best a gross distortion of reality, at worst duplicitous and even dishonest. Their houses were not unsafe; their farms were not too small; their land was not unsuitable for cultivation; the people did not leave of their own volition. The laird was not acting in their best interest but in the estate's, while the claim that no-one was evicted who wished to remain was a downright lie. And, as Fraser-Mackintosh laid bare, the Colonel could have stopped the evictions, but chose not to.”
― Mary Mackenzie, Glen Banchor: A Highland Glen and its People
