Stephenie Meyer quotes
-
Before you, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars, points of light and reason. And then you shot across the sky, like a meteor. Suddenly, everything was on fire. There was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, nothing had changed. But my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.

Bella Swan: I glared at him. No danger? Sure. I only had a sadistic vampire trying to avenge her mate's death with my own, preferably through some slow and torturous method.

Right. No reason at all to panic.

What was it that made this human love so much more desirable to me than the love of my own kind? Was it because it was so exclusive and capricious? The sould offered love and acceptance to all. Did I crave a greater challenge? This love was tricky; it had no hard-and-fast rules- it might be given for free, as with Jamie, or earned through hard work, as with Ian, or completly and heartbreakingly inattainable, as with Jared. Or was it simply better somehow? because these humans could hate with so much fury, was the other end of the spectrum that they could love with more heart and zeal and fire?

He’s playing every bit as hard as I am, only he knows what he’s doing and I don’t. Don’t blame me because he’s a better manipulator than I am — I haven’t been around long enough to learn all his tricks.
I wondered to myself why no one else had seen him standing so far away, before he was suddenly, impossibly saving my life. With chagrin, I realized the probable cause - no one else was as aware of Edward as I always was. No one else watched him the way I did. How pitiful.
