Quotes edit see section history

  • “Okay, tell me this-from a species that does the majority of thinking with it's penis-" "I resent that. I don't think with my penis more than twenty-five percent of the time." "Tell that to somebody you didn't just nail in the sleep chair.”
    Eve Dallas, Roarke
  • “You failed to inform me your schedule. Now I guess I have to cancel the hot date I lined up with the lap-dancing twins." "Ah, Lars and Sven. I've heard they're very inventive.”
    Eve Dallas, Roarke
  • “You have the finest man-candy on and off planet, and you want him looking at your face with bags and wrinkles? What are you going to do when he dumps you for a woman who takes time to maintain her face?" "Kill him."”
    Trina, Eve Dallas
  • “There was never anybody before you," she said. "I just wanted to say that. And when I did what I do, and it opened a crack in me like it did last night, there was nobody there to hold on to me. I didn't want anyone to hold on to me. Until you. And I got through and I got by, and it was okay. But I think, maybe, if I'd just kept getting through and getting by, I'd have come to a point where I couldn't do it anymore. And if I couldn't do it anymore, it'd be the end of me, Roarke." She took a steadying breath. "So when you hold on to me, you're helping me stand up one more time. And the dead, you're standing for them, too. I just wanted to say that.”
    Eve Dallas
  • “What he feels for you overwhelms him," Summerset began. "There was never anyone else. The women who came and went before you were diversions, temporary interests. He might care, because despite everything that was done to him, he's a man with a large capacity for caring. And still, there was no one before. Don't you see how he worries?”
    Summerset
  • “I was single a hell of a lot longer than I've been married. I never stooped to cyber-world." "Big deal when you're tall and thin with jungle-cat eyes and have a sexy little dent in your chin.""You coming on to me, Peabody?" "My love for you is a fearsome thing, Dallas But I've given up dating cops.”
    Eve Dallas, Delia Peabody
