“There comes a point when you just love someone. Not because they're good, or bad, or anything really. You just love them. It doesn't mean you'll be together forever. It doesn't mean you won't hurt each other. It just mean you love them. Sometimes in spite of who they are, and sometimes because of who they are. And you know that they love you, sometimes because of who you are, and sometimes in spite of it.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, Incubus Dreams

“With great power... comes great need to take a nap. Wake me up later.”
― Rick Riordan, The Last Olympian

“Some things are destined to be -- it just takes us a couple of tries
to get there.”
― J.R. Ward, Lover Mine

“I loved him, but love isn't enough. All the fairy tales, the romance novels, the soap operas; they're all lies. Love does not conquer all.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, The Lunatic Cafe
