Romance Quote by Colleen Houck — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Love is not a consequence. Love is not a choice. Love is a thirst. A need as vital to the soul as water is to the body. Love is a precious draught that not only soothes a parched throat, but it vitalizes a man. It fortifies him enough that he is willing to slay dragons for the woman who offers it. Take that draught of love from me and I will shrivel to dust. To take it from a man dying of thirst and give it to another whilst he watches is a cruelty I never thought you capable of.”

“Pulling the chair out for me, he invited me to sit.”

“I’ve been working hard to become the kind of man she needs, the kind of man she already believes me to be.”

“Is it really you this time, Kells?”

“He studied my appearance carefully. “You cut your hair.” “Yes. Do you like it?” “That depends. How long is it?” I pulled a curl down and showed him it ended just past my shoulder. He grunted, “That’s still long enough, so I like it.” “Long enough for what?” “Long enough for a man to run his hands through.”

“I want these gentle hands... and this kind smile... although I should not want such a thing.”

“You are my one and only, for all eternity.”

“My favorite color is you.”

“Love one another. Love yourself. Then love will find you whole not half.”

“I don't need the aid of a clever man to teach me how to live. I can find it out for myself.”

“You naked in my bed is even more unbelievably beautiful than I thought it would be... and trust me I've thought about it. A lot.”
