when doing so would hurt that beloved one?
If your life was all you had to give your beloved,
how could you not give it?
If it was someone you truly loved?
---Bella p.1
We’re getting married, Charlie.
I love her more than anything in the world, more than my own life,
and – by some miracle – she loves me that way, too.
Will you give us your blessing?
---Edward p.15
You make your own kinds of mistakes,
and I’m sure you’ll have your share of regrets in life.
But commitment was never your problem, sweetie.
You have a better chance of making this work than
most forty-year-olds I know. My little middle-aged child.
Luckily, you seem to have found another old soul.
---Renée p.18
Go to your happy place, Bella.
It won’t take long.
---Alice p.21
It seemed silly that this fact – the existence of his soul –
had ever been in question, even if he was a vampire.
He had the most beautiful soul, more beautiful than
his brilliant mind or his incomparable face or his glorious body.
---Bella p.24
I’m glad I came. I didn’t think I would be.
But it’s good to see you… one more time.
Not as sad as I’d thought it would be.
---Jacob p.59
Insanity is probably easier than sharing a pack mind.
Crazy people’s voices don’t send babysitters to watch them.
---Jacob p.61
My relationship with Jacob used to be so easy.
Natural as breathing.
But since Edward had come back into my life,
it was a constant strain. Because – in Jacob’s eyes –
by choosing Edward, I was choosing a fate
that was worse than death,
or at least equivalent to it.
---Bella p.64
How did people do this –
swallow all their fears and trust someone else
so implicitly with every imperfection and fear they had –
with less than the absolute commitment that
Edward had given me?
If it weren’t Edward out there,
if I didn’t know in every cell of my body that he loved me
as much as I loved him – unconditionally and irrevocably
and, to be honest, irrationally – I’d never be able to get up off this floor.
---Bella p.83
Now you know.
No one’s ever loved anyone
as much as I love you.
---Bella p.753
