Romance Quotes

It’s easy to get wrapped up in sharing everyday life with a partner. It’s fun to get lost in love and romance. It’s the best. But holding on to yourself while doing that is the most important thing Picture Quote #1

Before Midnight is one of the years best movies. Full to the brim with humor, heartbreak, and ravishing romance. Richard Linklater directs with ardor and artistry. Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy shine brilliantly. Heads up, Oscar. This ones a keeper Picture Quote #1

To me, Green Arrow in the past, what people loved about Oliver Queen pre-New 52 was his relationships with other heroes. Like his friendship with Green Lantern, his animosity with Hawkman, his romance with Black Canary - these are all the things that sort of defined him Picture Quote #1

I’ve been really blessed to have a lot of romance in my life. It’s like my last luxury Picture Quote #1

There are people who say they want to write novels. They think, ‘I’ll learn my craft on the romance novel.’ If you don’t love the genre, it’s going to show, and it’s not going to be a good book Picture Quote #1

I’ve had mainstream readers complain that the book is really a romance, and romance readers complain that the book isn’t a romance - with the same book! It really depends on the individual reader’s expectations going into the story, and that’s very hard to predict person to person Picture Quote #1

I was a latecomer to romance, although I did read gothics. My father used to work for the ‘Fort Worth Star-Telegram,’ and their book reviewer, author Leonard Sanders, would pass on the gothics for my dad to give to me since Leonard didn’t review gothics. I gobbled up books by Mary Stewart, Madeleine Brent, Victoria Holt and Phyllis Whitney Picture Quote #1

I’m writing my next book under a pseudonym. It will be Mark Twain’s best young adult romance Picture Quote #1

Boring heroines are, in my opinion, the most common romance mistake. We loathe hanging out with women who define themselves purely through their relationships... why would we want to read about them? Picture Quote #1

We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and - in spite of True Romance magazines - we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way Picture Quote #1

Romance goes like this: Boy gets girl. Boy loses girl. Boy gets girl again. The end. It can’t be any other way Picture Quote #1

[ I watched ] Spicoli in Fast Times, which isn’t exactly a stoner movie, or The Big Lebowski, which I think is more than a stoner movie or Brad Pitt in True Romance Picture Quote #1

Many an American jazz musician has been beguiled by the lush melodies and sumptuous rhythms of Brazilian music, but Peter Sprague has taken the romance a good deal further than most Picture Quote #1

I can trace every romance of my life back to a meal. My memories are enhanced by the tender morsels had at tables across from lovers, on blankets with friends who’d eventually become more, in banquets, barbecues, and breakfasts Picture Quote #1

In my books and in romance as a genre, there is a positive, uplifting feeling that leaves the reader with a sense of encouragement and hope for a brighter future - or a brighter present Picture Quote #1

There is no such thing as romance in our day, women have become too brilliant; nothing spoils a romance so much as a sense of humor in the woman Picture Quote #1

I love the concept of the romance that exists when people are broken. Like, the promise of a romance when you’re at the bottom. I think that’s infinitely compelling and romantic Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that writing talent has much to do with where one went to school, or the number of degrees on one’s business card, but I do get a bit bristly at the implication that romance authors couldn’t possibly be smart enough to get into an Ivy League school Picture Quote #1

There is no romance without some lying. That’s what romance is - a little bit of Vaseline on the camera lens of life Picture Quote #1

I think people underestimate the romance audience. It’s everything from career women to high school girls to elderly women. I have male readers, too, especially for the Civil War books Picture Quote #1

Romance is sort of an island right next to care. When you care about someone and you listen to them and you hear them and you can feel them and you know just what’s right, and generally it’s something that will be very unimpressive to a room of strangers Picture Quote #1

Yeah, but there’s nobody who represents romance to me like Cary Grant Picture Quote #1

Most books set in England between 1800 and 1840 have a ‘Regency’ feel. The reason that era is so useful for romance authors stems from the wide-ranging social changes that were occurring over that time, and the parallels, or echoes, those create with our time and the lives of our readers Picture Quote #1

I’ve been typed as historical fiction, historical women’s fiction, historical mystery, historical chick lit, historical romance - all for the same book Picture Quote #1

I say, ‘I write romance, women’s fiction, chick lit.’ I think it all fits very comfortably under the same umbrella. Basically, I write books for women - books about relationships: books that make you laugh and sometimes make you cry a little Picture Quote #1

If I’m desperate, I’ll read anything. But even when I can be choosy, I still have no hard-and-fast rules. I have rules about what I won’t read, rather than what I will. No science fiction, no romance, no chick lit. Although even these rules can be broken Picture Quote #1

Romance is quite an overblown word. This idea of chocolates and champagne and that’s it. There’s more to love than that. Romance is quite a soppy word. Love is much more important Picture Quote #1

There always has been a mystique and a romance about aviation, but in terms of the principles involved of satisfying your customer there’s no difference between selling airlines seats and chocolate bars Picture Quote #1

I actually worked in the general market for many years writing steamy historical romance, and I had more freedom in the Christian market than I ever did in the general market to write about any issue that I needed to write about Picture Quote #1

Had Elizabeth Bennet known how wildly Darcy’s heart beat for her, ‘Pride and Prejudice’ would barely have made it into a short story. Their torturously slow-burning romance is a classic example of how men and women still struggle to communicate the most basic of emotions Picture Quote #1
