I am influenced by books which dont have their eye on the endgame, but which try to be entertaining on each and every page.

In romance, there's nothing more attractive to a man than a woman who has dignity and pride in who she is.
Anything a person chases in life runs away.
When you meet someone who is truly great, he makes you believe you can be great, too. This is the kind of relationship you want, and it's the only kind of relationship worth having.
Truly powerful people don't explain why they want respect. They simply don't engage someone who doesn't give it to them.
