Ann’s Quotes

“A saint likes to be told what he is, but a sinner is a bit touchy.”
― Violet Winspear, Satan Took a Bride

“Do Englishmen like intellectual women?’ she asked.

‘Not if they have any sense, but they have such a high measure of tolerance that it’s likely they endure such women out of sheer gallantry. It would be like kissing a Roget’s Thesaurus!”
― Violet Winspear, Satan Took a Bride

“The cleverest women hide it and create an aura of wit and charm instead. Those who can’t wait a moment to prove how much smarter than men they are--Dios, what bores! A man might as well invite a bearded professor to lunch than a female with all her mental pencils sharpened; instead of being an amusing companion she sits for an examination, gobbling food and words and waving her hands about like a merchant in a bazaar. It is probably the Spaniard in me that dislikes the type!”
― Violet Winspear, Satan Took a Bride

“By God, it would be a pleasure to master her, to ride her to the Devil who had blessed, nay, cursed her with that tongue. Aye, and beyond him to the lowest pit of Hell where only the demons lurked, forgotten even by their unsavoury Lord!”
― Paula Marshall, The Deserted Bride

“How could you do such a thing to your husband?" Toni looked at Melisande with shocked eyes.
"Quite simply because he bored me. He agreed with everything I ever said, and not once in our four years together did he give me a bruise. He knelt to me when I wanted him to dominate me. He let me make a fool of him with a dozen men, but Luque was, on that point, a perfect Spaniard. He turned his back on me and so I stabbed him!”
― Violet Winspear, Satan Took a Bride
