roarke - Bilingual quotes that celebrate the beauty of language, showcasing meaningful expressions in two unique perspectives.
J.D. Robb
She started to open the door, looked back at him. Whatever came before, whatever comes after, I know what love is because of you.He took her free hand. Whatever came before, whatever comes after, it's you who've shown me love changes everything. Lifts everything. Gives everything.We're going to have dinner tonight, just the two of us. No cops but me, no work. Like a date, okay?Want a date, do you?It surprised her more than him. I really do.Then it's more than okay.
J.D. Robb
Roarke winced and began the delicate task of extracting his feet from his mouth.
J.D. Robb
You won't forget me, Eve. You'll think of me, perhaps not fondly, but you'll think of me.I'm in the middle of a murder investigation. You're part of it. Sure, I'll think of you.Darling, he began, and watched with amusement as his use of the endearment knitted her brow. You'll be thinking of what I can do to you.
J.D. Robb
What are you doing?Washing your hair, he murmured and proceeded to stroke and massage the shampoo into her short, sopping cap of hair. I'm going to enjoy smelling my soap on you. His lips curved. You're a fascinating woman, Eve. Here we are, wet, naked, both of us half dead from a very memorable night, and still you watch me with very cool, very suspicious eyes.You're a suspicious character, Roarke.I think that's a compliment.
J.D. Robb
The goodie drawer of all goodie drawers. This dildo not only throbs, vibrates, expands, and comes equipped with hands-free feature, it sings a choice of five popular tunes. He crouched beside her. You couldn't have tried it out that quickly.Pervert. I turned it on to see. He's got some illegals sprinkled through here, too.
J.D. Robb
And then Roarke came to my door, and that gave me what I needed after all those years. I thank God for that, and him. But I'm telling you, and hope you already know, what you do, beyond the law of it, is needed. Sinead. Roarke stepped up, pressed a handkerchief in her hand. Ah well. Sighing now, she dabbed at tears. The world can be so dark. It's foolish to deny it, and the Irish know the dark better than some in any case. It reminds us to hold on to the light, every minute we can, and to prize it. You're a light to me. She kissed Roarke's cheeks. Don't ever forget it.
J.D. Robb
I slept in myself, didn't get up until about nine. Has anyone looked outside, checked to see if the world is still spinning on its axis? At which time, he continued dryly, I had a workout-I had soufflé, too. Then, before I came down here to enjoy one of my gifts, I worked about an hour in my office.
J.D. Robb
Is there any exceptionally beautiful woman you haven't slept with?""I'll make you a list. So, you knocked her down.
J.D. Robb
When I came in and you were sleeping, I thought: There's my soldier, exhausted from her wars. He lifted her hand, kissed her fingers. Now, I look, and I think: There's my woman, soft and lovely. Her lips curved as he undressed her. Where do you get this stuff? It just comes to me. I've only to look at you, and the world comes to me. You're my life.
J.D. Robb
But you're smarter than even he thinks he is. She paused, thought that through. If you get me.Aren't we full of compliments tonight? I'll have to bang you against the wall more often.
J.D. Robb
Roarke, you've got to know I've got some bad stuff inside. It's like a virus that sneaks around the system, pops out when your resistance is low. I'm not a good bet. - Eve Dallas I like long odds. He lifted her hand, kissed it. Why don't we see it through? Find out if we can both win. - Roarke
J.D. Robb
I'm not afraid of you, Roarke. Aren't you? He moved closer, curling his hands on the lapels of her shirt. What do you think will happen if you step over the line? Too much, she murmured.
J.D. Robb
Marriage is a freaking minefield.
J.D. Robb
You are embarrassed. She leaned over to kiss him, and while he was distracted, snatchedthe disc. That's cute. Really cute.Shut up. Give me that.I don't think so. Delighted, she danced back a step and held the disc out of reach. I betthis is very hot. Aren't you curious?No. He made a grab, but she was very quick. Eve, give me the damn thing.This is fascinating. She edged back toward the open patio doors. The sophisticated,seen-it-all Roarke is blushing.
J.D. Robb
It's always a pleasure watching you wake up, he commented. But sometimes I wonder if you want me only for my coffee.Well... She grinned at him and sipped again. I really like the food, too. And the sex isn't bad.
J.D. Robb
Neither of them knew what it was to be family, to have family, to make a family. They knew cruelty, abuse, abandonment. She wondered if that was why they had come together. They both understood what it was to have nothing, to know fear and hunger and despair- and both had remade themselves.
J.D. Robb
Might have to go to London, she murmured. Huh. Wouldn't it be a kick in the head if I really did have to be out of the country hunting a criminal mastermind when Mavis goes into labor? I, my ass. That goes to we or I'll hurt you
J.D. Robb
He took her hand, lifted it to his lips. Nothing could have pleased him more than the quick suspicion on her face. You won't forget me, Eve. You'll think of me, perhaps not fondly, but you'll think of me.I'm in the middle of a murder investigation. You're part of it. Sure, I'll think of you.Darling, he began, and watched with amusement as his use of the endearment knitted her brow. You'll be thinking of what I can do to you.
J.D. Robb
I don't want to hear from Traffic that my husband was hotdogging the skyways in his minichopper.""You won't. I bribe too well.
J.D. Robb
You're a fascinating woman, Eve. Here we are, wet, naked, both of us half dead from a very memorable night, and still you watch me with very cool, very suspicious eyes. You're a suspicious character, Roarke.
J.D. Robb
You're still carrying Africa, but it's eroding at the edges.Great. We're destroying the Dark Continent.
J.D. Robb
He wanted to heave the glasses against the wall. Break them, break everything he could reach. Beat it, rend it. He stared out the window, imagined the city in flames, consumed to ashes. And still it wasn't enough.
J.D. Robb
Don't leave me again. God. God. Don't leave me again.I didn'tPart of you did. He moved her back, and his eyes swarmed with emotion. Part of you left me, and I couldn't stand it.
J.D. Robb
Can you imagine what I wouldn't risk for you? You can't, because there's nothing. There's bloody nothing - Roarke
J.D. Robb
EVE: I have work to do.ROARKE: I know but it can wait. I have something to show you.EVE: In the bedroom? She looks Roarke up and down. I've seen it. It's nice I might take time to play with it later.ROARKE: You're to good to me.
J.D. Robb
I'm fine right here.All patience, he bent down until his face was close to hers. What you are is hoping to get drunk enough so that you can take a few punches at someone without worrying about the consequences. With me, you don't have to get drunk, you don't have to worry. You can take all the punches you want.Why?Because you have something sad in your eyes and it gets to me.
J.D. Robb
Please, Eve, these public displays of affection must stop. I have a reputation.Keep it up, ace, and I'll give you a public display of affection that'll have you limping for a week.Now I'm excited.
J.D. Robb
Assaulting an officer will earn you one to five, Roarke. That's in a cage, not cushy home detention.You're not wearing your badge. Or anything else, for that matter. He gave her a friendly nip on the chin. Be sure to put that in your report.
J.D. Robb
You need a medic, Lieutenant.In a minute. Let me ask you something.Ask away. Having nothing else, he tore part of his ripped sleeve to dab at the blood on her shoulder.Do I come charging into one of your board rooms when you're having trouble with a business deal?His eyes flicked to hers. Some of the fierceness died out of them into what was almost a smile. No, Eve, you don't. I don't know what got into me.It's okay. This once.
J.D. Robb
You tell Roarke you were tagging me for this? Or is he going to get riled up so I have to kick his ass again?Oh, is that what you were doing when you had to be carried out of the room unconscious?I like to remember it that I was just getting my second wind.

Taffy. He thinks about taffy. He thinks it would take his teeth out now, but he would eat it anyhow, if it meant eating it with her.
by Mitch Albom
All our human endeavours are like that, she reflected, and it is only because we are too ignorant to realize it, or are too forgetful to remember it, that we have the confidence to build something that is meant to last.
by Alexander McCall Smith
In fact, none of us knows how he ever managed to get his LLB in the first place. Maybe they're putting law degrees in cornflakes boxes these days.
by Alexander McCall Smith
The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.}
by Alexander McCall Smith
Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search. And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end? I shrugged. You see? He leaned back. He smiled. When you come to the end, that's where God begins.
by Mitch Albom
Small towns are like metronomes; with the slightest flick, the beat changes.
by Mitch Albom
You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
by Mitch Albom
we get so many lives between birth and death. A life to be a child. A life to come of age. A life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to test our promise, to realize our mortality-and, in some lucky cases, to do something after that realization.
by Mitch Albom
Where there's bluster, thinks Luisa, there's duplicity
by David Mitchell
I have the tendency to be nervous at the sight of trouble looming. As the danger draws near, I become less nervous. When the peril is at hand, I swell with fierceness. As I grapple with my assailant, I am without fear and fight to the finish with little thought of injury.
by Jean Sasson
