“No matter how troubled a character's history, romance novels tell us, ...” — Sarah MacLean Quote

“No matter how troubled a character's history, romance novels tell us, love can be built upon it, and happily-ever-after can result. What's more, the darker the past, the brighter the future - and the better the read.”

“I never met Colleen McCullough; if I had, I probably would have cried and made a fool of myself.”

“Romance readers love a wealthy hero, and why not? There's value in a man able to hire a helicopter, a coach and six horses, or a collection of werewolves to do his bidding - and the bidding of the lucky woman on his arm.”

“I believe we can look forward to a more prosperous, more secure, and brighter future if we vote to leave the failing E.U. project.”

“We have the opportunity and the responsibility to lead our country to a better and brighter future, and I cannot wait to roll up my sleeves and get back to work.”

“Hope makes people good, a lot of the time. You hope for a brighter future, and resentment is outweighed.”
