“A really good detective never gets married.”

“I began to get really keen, for every man at the bottom of his heart believes that he is a born detective.”

“There will never be a good time, financially, to get married, unless you're Shaq or Ray Romano. But somehow people manage. If your man is using money as an excuse not to marry you, it's your relationship that's insecure, not his bank account.”

“To foreswear romantic love forever. To never grow up, never get married. To be maiden eternally.”

“He thought I was a cop and deliberately didn't call me "officer" or "detective." I let it go. If I really had a professional title I'd have demanded it, but getting into an argument because he wouldn't call me "detective" when I wasn't one seemed counterproductive.”

“Use it all you want. Marry him. He’ll never really be yours, and you’ll never know it.Or maybe you will.”
