“I knew what was like to finally be seduced by the thing you hunted. Mine just happened to be a more traditional seduction. Okay, at least I was still among the living.”

“My least favorite thing was a man who had severe white-man's ass, where the jeans just bagged over the butt. I wanted something to hold on to, something to sink my teeth into. When I said I liked meat on my men I didn't just mean one thing.”

“If your life works, and you work in it, then it’s okay, whatever is happening is okay.”

“I'd made sure I knew his name. You shouldn't ask people to die for you if you don't at least know their name.”

“Accidental sex. He made it sound like I fell down, and there just happened to be an erection in the way.”

“it was more like two scared kids huddling in the dark when they knew the monster under the bed wasn't just real, but was holding a grudge.”

“I will love you always. When this red hair is white, I will still love you. When the smooth softness of youth is replaced by the delicate softness of age, I will still want to touch your skin. When your face is full of the lines of every smile you have ever smiled, of every surprise I have seen flash through your eyes, when every tear you have ever cried has left its mark upon your face,I will treasure you all the more, because I was there to see it all. I will share your life with you, Meredith, and I will love you until the last breath leaves your body or mine.”
