“I don't love you anymore", she whispered. "I don't love you at all." His throat closed. "It's all right, sweetheart. I love you enough for both of us.”

“He shook his head. "The next time I hear a women going on about how neurotic men are, I'm going to remember this. You tell me you like my body, and what do I say? I say, thank you. Then I tell you I like yours and what do I hear? A long lists of grievances.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“I take thee... to be my awful wedded husband” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“I finally figured out that not every crisis can be managed. As much as we want to keep ourselves safe, we can't protect ourselves from everything. If we want to embrace life, we also have to embrace chaos.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Breathing Room
“I guess we're oil and water. (Phoebe)I'd say we're more like gasoline and a blowtorch. (Dan)” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, It Had to Be You
“What are you gonna do, angel face? Stab me with your eyebrow pencil?” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“She threw up her hands. "All right. Why not?" Why not?" Sure." His arms fell to his sides. "That's it? I pour my heart out. I love you so much I've got freakin' tears in my eyes. And all I get in return is 'Why not'?" What did you expect? Am I supposed to fall all over you just because you've finally come to your senses?" Would it be too much to ask?"...He'd begun to glare at her again, his eyes growing stormier by the minute."When do you think you might be ready? To fall all over me, that is.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Breathing Room
“sometimes knowing when to give up is the real test of character...-annabelle granger” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Match Me If You Can
“If I could put my brain in her body, the world would be mine for the taking.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Match Me If You Can
“The door closed behind her (Phoebe), and the two men regarded each other for a moment. Viktor spoke first. "I must have your promise, Coach, that you won't hurt her." Dan: "I won't." Viktor: "You spoke a little too quickly for my taste. I don't quite believe you." Dan: "I'm a man of my word, and I promise I won't hurt her." He flexed his hands. "When I murder her, I'll do it real quick so she won't feel a thing." Viktor sighed. "That's exactly what I was afraid of.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, It Had to Be You
“This is America. We’re entitled to our opinions.”“Wrong. This is Texas. And my opinion is the only one that counts.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Call Me Irresistible
“Pride had kept her running when love had betrayed her.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“Did you eat my Twinkies?"She gulped. Keeping her eyes glued to the whip, she said, "Exactly what Twinkies are we talking about?""The Twinkies in the cupboard over the sink. The only Twinkies in the trailer." His fingers convulsed around the coils of leather.Oh, Lord, she thought. Flayed to death for a Twinkle."Well?""It, uh — it won't happen again, I promise you. But they didn't have any special marking on them, so there was no way I could tell they were yours." Her eyes remained riveted on the whip. "And normally I wouldn't have eaten them— I never eat junk food-—but I was hungry last night, and, well, when you think about it, you'll have to admit I did you a favor because they're clogging my arteries now instead of yours."His voice was quiet. Too quiet. In her mind she heard the howl of a rampaging Cossack baying at a Russian moon. "Don't touch my Twinkies. Ever. If you want Twinkies, buy your own.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“Nobody else can demean me. I can only demean myself” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Kiss an Angel
“Disagreements over money are the biggest cause of divorce."She waved her hand. "Absolutely no problem. Your money is our money. My money is my money." She wrote away."I should make you negotiate with Phoebe.” ― Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Match Me If You Can
