Life Lessons Quote by Lisa Kleypas — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Cat doesn’t have to work. She’s a woman of independent means. I settled enough money on her to allow her the freedom to do anything she wished. She went to boarding school for four years, and stayed to teach for another two. Eventually she came to me and said she’d accepted a position as a governess for the Hathaway family. I believe you were in France with Win at the time. Cat went for the interview, Cam and Amelia liked her, Beatrix and Poppy clearly needed her, and no one seemed inclined to question her lack of experience.”

“You deserve someone better than me. Someone young and idealistic…someone who can experience things for the first time along with you. I'm not always kind, and I have more faults than I'd care to name. All I can promise is that I'll want you until my last breath.”

“And then to Leo’s surprise, Catherine smiled at him. A sweet, natural, brilliant smile, the first she had ever given him. Leo felt his chest tighten, and he went hot all over, as if some euphoric drug had gone straight to his nervous system.”

“I didn't want to give you the one last part of myself that I couldn't take back. And then you were gone... And I realized it was already yours. It had been since the beginning. Except that I hadn't told you. It drove me mad, the thought that you would never know.”

“I've missed you, Sebastian.”

“Os homens irão deixar-te, a tua beleza irá desaparecer, os teus filhos irão crescer e partir e tudo o que pensaste ser a tua vida irá azedar; a única coisa com que podes contar é contigo mesma e com o teu talento.”

“Evaluate your steps. If you have not achieved the goals you set for yourself in the past five years, it is time to take stock of your plans, and prepare for success.”

“Some battles are lost not because people lack the necessary tools for victory, but because they do not know how to use them effectively.”

“Even in the fiercest battles the Butterflies and Bee's still kiss the flowers.”

“Pray for a territory marked with victory. Prayer is essential if you want to achieve victory locally or globally.”

“Everything changed after you left... It changed just as you wished, and just as quickly as you gave everything up — as if everything was trying to prove to you that you were never truly needed.”
