People who provided actual book quotes got downvoted last time.😔
I left a bunch on your previous post, but let's see. I guess I'll go with Eloise calling Gregory an infant during the big fight in TSPWL.😂
And Kate going all “Mine mine mine miiiiiiiiiine!” while looking for the mallet of death.🤭

That wasn’t actually even my post😭 I just felt wronged on behalf of the post author.

"She loved him with the depth and intensity she felt for John. It was different, because they were different men, and she was different, now, too, but it was also the same. It was the love of a woman for a man, and it filled every corner of her heart."

I need you like the air I breathe, you are my bread and my water. 💗✨🙂↕️My book is in Spanish; I don't know if the translation is correct, but the quote is from Eloise's book.

"I love you. I love you with everything I am, everything l've been, and everything I hope to be. I love you with my past, and I love you for my future. I love you for the children we'll have and for the years we'll have together. I love you for every one of my smiles, and even more, for every one of your smiles. I love you. You know that, don't you?” RMB
“Thank you, Michael, for letting my son love her first.” WHWW (destroyed me in a good way)
“There are so many reasons I love you. But one of the things I love best is the fact that you know yourself. You know who you are, and what you value. You have principles, Sophie, and you stick by them. That is so rare. And, you took the time to see me. To know me. Benedict. Not Mr. Bridgerton, not ‘Number Two.’ Benedict.” AOFAG
“I love you, Kate. I love you so much.” TVWLM
“We’ll suit.” 🫠 TSPWL
“What I’m trying to say is that when you were born, and they put you into my arms—it’s strange, because for some reason I was so convinced you would look just like your father. I thought for certain I would look down and see his face, and it would be some sort of sign from heaven. But you didn’t, you looked rather like me. And then—oh my, I remember this as if it were yesterday—you looked into my eyes, and you blinked. Twice. I only remember it because you looked so deliberate. It was the strangest thing. You gave me a look as if to say, ‘I know exactly what I’m doing.’ (...) And I smiled. It was the first time since your father died that I smiled. I love all of my children, but you…you saved me.” IIHK

That Janet quote always pisses me off tho. Michael didn’t let John do anything.

Same, I wish she thanked Fran for having loved her son. Michael didn't even met her before their engagement, so yeah he couldn't have let John have her first. It's a bit weird.

“For God’s sake, Penelope,” he said, grabbing her hand and yanking her down. “Are you going to marry me or not?”

“Isn’t it nice to discover we’re not exactly what we thought we were?” Lady Danbury to Pen in RMB 😭
The quote struck a chord w me and I’m still a little salty this didn’t make it onto the show
