Bella: How could I live with myself when itโs my fault? None of you should be risking yourselves for me โ Jasper: Bella, Bella, stop. Youโre worrying all the wrong things, Bella. Trust me on this โ none of us are in jeopardyโฆ Our family is strong. Our only fear is losing you. Bella: But why should you โ Alice: Itโs been almost a century that Edwardโs been alone. Now heโs found you. You canโt see the changes that we see, we who have been with him for so long. Do you think any of us want to look into his eyes for the next hundred years if he loses you?
Stephenie MeyerAre you referring to the fact that you can't walk across a flat, stable surface without finding something to trip over?
Stephenie MeyerIt was strange and amusing...and, honestly, a bit embarrassing...to realize how much being near Bella had softened me. It seemed like no one was afraid of me any more. If Emmett found out about this, he would be laughing for the next century.
Stephenie MeyerThat actually is one of my huge challenges right now because I write best at night, no question. I can focus. You know you're not getting any phone calls, I can shut everything down, and I'm just more creative at night.
