You've always asked me to wait, as if we had time in abundance. But time is too precious, Perry. We've wasted years, when we could have been with each other. Don't you understand how much even one day of loving each other is worth? Some people are separated by distances they can never cross. All they can do is dream about each other for a lifetime, never having what they want most. How foolish, how wasteful to have love within your reach and not take it!"

You may as well reconcile yourself to it.โ Nick did not bother trying to deny it. โI was going to be so much smarter than you,โ he muttered. Sir Ross grinned. โI prefer to think that intelligence has nothing to do with it. For if a manโs intellect is measured by his ability to remain untouched by love, I would be the greatest idiot alive.

Lisa KleypasThere is nothing on earth more beautiful to me than your smile...no sound sweeter than your laughter...no pleasure greater than holding you in my arms. I realized today that I could never live without you, stubborn little hellion that you are. In this life and the next, youโre my only hope of happiness. Tell me, Lillian, dearest love...how can you have reached so far inside my heart?
