Nonsense," Ophelia said stoutly. "They're happy sheep. You can tell."
"How?" Sophia demanded.
Ophelia regarded the ewes for a moment, then suddenly broke into a huge grin. "Maybe you can tell they
're happy sheep because they don't feel baaaaad. ~ Karen Hawkins
Ophelia quotes by Karen Hawkins
Miles looked so cute, squished on a couch between Will and Trevin. He was polite, too, a gentleman. A fricking sexy gentleman with the biceps of a Harvard crew rower and a smile that truly made her heart throb. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Hamlet: Lady, shall I lie in your lap? Ophelia: No, my lord. Hamlet: DId you think I meant country matters? Ophelia: I think nothing, my lord. Hamlet: That's a fair thought to lie between maids' legs. Ophelia: What is, my lord? Hamlet: Nothing. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
Now is all the time I have anything to do with, said Miss Ophelia. ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe
Ophelia quotes by Harriet Beecher Stowe
[Shakespeare realized that] Women are able to understand themselves better on a personal level and survive in the world if they dress in men's clothing, thus living underground, safe (...). The presence of women disguising themselves as men dictates that the play be a comedy; women remaining in their frocks, a tragedy. In four great tragedies -Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Othello, and King Lear- almost all the women die (...).
How much the women have to adhere to the rules and regulations of their enviroment makes a large difference. Once Rosalind [disguised as a man in As You Like It] has run away from the court, she has no institutional structures to deal with. Ophelia [in her frocks] is surrounded tightly by institutional structures of family, court, and politics; only by going mad can be get out of it all. ~ Tina Packer
Ophelia quotes by Tina Packer
If he couldn't think of anything on his own, he could quote lines from his favorite Prince song, tell her how his stomach trembled, that she had his butterflies all tied up.
But he just kissed her.
He might keep kissing her forever, not thinking about the consequences or meaning behind anything. She tasted so good and felt so warm, she filled his head to the brink, and when she shifted closer, his brain emptied, and he went spiraling ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
He had made his choice, chosen Ophelia, chosen the sweet poison and drunk it. Wanting above all to brave and kind, he had wanted, even more than that, to be loved. So it had been. So it would ever be ... ~ F Scott Fitzgerald
Ophelia quotes by F Scott Fitzgerald
Ophelia said, Isn't there even one for you?They're all adjectives, they make me feel modified (Eve Babitz) ~ Lili Anolik
Ophelia quotes by Lili Anolik
But to my mind, though I am native here, And to the manner born, it is a custom, More honored in the breach than the observance. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
I thought I was the crazy one," she continued. "I mean, who the hell falls in love in one day?"
"We the hell do. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
There is nothing to be found in human eyes, and that is their terrifying and dolorous enigma, their abominable and delusive charm. There is nothing but that which we put there ourselves. That is why honest gazes are only to be found in portraits.

The faded and weary eyes of martyrs, expressions tortured by ecstasy, imploring and suffering eyes, some resigned, others desperate... the gazes of saints, mendicants and princesses in exile, with pardoning smiles... the gazes of the possessed, the chosen and the hysterical... and sometimes of little girls, the eyes of Ophelia and Canidia, the eyes of virgins and witches... as you live in the museums, what eternal life, dolorous and intense, shines out of you! Like precious stones enshrined between the painted eyelids of masterpieces, you disturb us across time and across space, receivers of the dream which created you!

You have souls, but they are those of the artists who wished you into being, and I am delivered to despair and mortification because I have drunk the draught of poison congealed in the irises of your eyes.

The eyes of portraits ought to be plucked out. ~ Jean Lorrain
Ophelia quotes by Jean Lorrain
If I have to do battle with you a thousand times to prove my point, I'll do it.'
The queen unwisely asked, 'But to prove what point, my dear Hamlet?'
'That I loved Ophelia! Fifty thousand brothers, with all the love they can summon, would not equal my love for here. Ophelia, Ophelia. ~ John Marsden
Ophelia quotes by John Marsden
They think thee mad? I'll show thou mad, my lord. ~ Phar West Nagle
Ophelia quotes by Phar West Nagle
Abby stared at me, her fingers going all grabby like she wanted to snatch the phone and save me. No girl had ever wanted to save me before. I glanced away, because her worried expression made me want to laugh, but when I wasn't looking at her, the thought of it made me want to kiss her. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Hey," Natalie said. "You're here early."
"It's almost seven. Why are you covered in chocolate? Your clothes and your ... your face. Both your faces."
Luke looked at Natalie, really looked at her. Yep, she was smeared with chocolate like it was camo paint, transferred from his mouth to hers and back again too many times to count.
"We were ... " Natalie began. "We were just
"
"Sampling," Luke cut in. If Natalie had wanted Ivy to know, she would've come straight out with it.
Ivy crossed her arms. "Sampling?"
"Yeah, I'm interested in her ... product. So she let me, uh, try some." Wow, he couldn't have sounded kinkier if he'd tried.
"But it's all over the floor on that side of the lab. Like, all over the place. It's even on the wall. How did it get on the ceiling? You must be one sloppy eater. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
But soft you, the fair Ophelia: Ope not thy ponderous and marble jaws, But get thee to a nunnery - go! ~ Mark Twain
Ophelia quotes by Mark Twain
He feels
ennui
depression
adrift in his life. Purposeless, perhaps because
- dig a well in the Sudan and thejanjaweed come in and shoot the people anyway
- buy mosquito nets and the boys

- steals them and uses the women as slaves and
Ben is starting to be afraid that he is starting to share Chon's opinion of the human species
that people are basically
shit. ~ Don Winslow
Ophelia quotes by Don Winslow
He may have been helping me out of a pretty huge bind, but I wasn't about to trust him, despite the way he was watching me with that almost-smile, and the way one stray lock of dark hair
had fallen across his forehead, begging for my fingers to push it back then continue running through his hair. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
She lifted her chin; her head weighed fifty pounds. "You tried to poison me."
Pretty sure I succeeded in that. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Hamlet: Is this a prologue, or the posy of a ring? Ophelia: 'Tis brief, my lord. Hamlet: As woman's love. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
Too much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,
And therefore I forbid my tears. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
I took the role of Ophelia in Hamlet because she is so naive, loving, and innocent. ~ Julia Stiles
Ophelia quotes by Julia Stiles
She kissed her teenage fantasy, the popular boy she used to dream would see something special in her and love her forever. The man kissed her back. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Luke's eyes were on a government position in DC, while all Natalie wanted was help make the world a sweeter place. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
This is the best it's ever been for me, Abby," Todd murmured into my hair. "The best." He kissed my ear. Slowly. "This." He kissed it again. "I hope you understand that."
"Yes," I whispered, not really understanding anything.
Todd pulled back, leveling our faces. "Do you?" he asked intently.
Then we crashed together, like two dehydrated hikers finding an oasis in each other's mouths. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
I love hugging you," Luke said. "I love how our bodies fit when we're still ... I feel like a broken record when I say I know there are a hundred reasons why we shouldn't but Nat, I really want to kiss you. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
When down her weedy trophies and herself
Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide;
And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up:
Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes;
As one incapable of her own distress,
Or like a creature native and indued
Unto that element: but long it could not be
Till that her garments, heavy with their drink,
Pull'd the poor wretch from her melodious lay
To muddy death.
(Ophelia) ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
The way he said it, with a twinkle in his already too-twinkly blue eyes, made Aimee feel twinkly, too. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
He is dead and gone, lady, He is dead and gone; At his head a grass-green turf, At his heels a stone. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
I found a dead body in the cucumber patch,' I told them.
'How very like you,' Ophelia said, and went on preening her eyebrows. ~ Alan Bradley
Ophelia quotes by Alan Bradley
Though there're minor side effects in male adults."
"What side effect?"
She cocked an eyebrow and lowered her voice. "Spontaneous prolonged erection, big guy ... in some test subjects," she added clinically. "A lot of those early tests were done on gorillas ...
"I'm not a gorilla."
She glanced down the front of his lab coat. "Not yet. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
If we divide human attributes into "masculine" and "feminine" and strengthen only those attributes that "belong" to that sex, we cut off half of ourselves from ourselves as human beings, condemned forever to search for our other half. The world is in desperate need of multilayered human beings with the voices, stamina, and insight to break through our current calcified ways of doing things, (...) The patriarchal structures of honor, shame, violence, and might is right, do as much harm to Hamlet, Edgar, Lear, and Coriolanus as they do to Ophelia, Desdemona, Lady Macduff (...)
(...) To have feelings, intuitive flights of understanding, a desire to have knowledge of what is happening below the surface, to serve. These are often called "feminine" attributes, and it is true that many women in the plays possess them. But they also belong to Kent, Ferdinand, Florizel, Camillo, as well as the women. So they are not "feminine" attributes: they are human attributes. ~ Tina Packer
Ophelia quotes by Tina Packer
Miles jogged off, leaving her alone in the large and quiet room. Aimee stood still, waiting for her mind and heart to go back to normal, return to how she felt a week ago before seeing Miles again.
But they didn't. Or wouldn't. She put both hands over her pounding heart, exhaled, and sank into a chair. Nut-burgers. Now what? ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
In the midst of life we are in death,' said Miss Ophelia. ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe
Ophelia quotes by Harriet Beecher Stowe
First one of you to call me Yoko," Todd warned as he stepped up, "is a dead man. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
In the fifteen or so years he has known her, A.J. thinks Ismay has aged like an actress should: from Juliet to Ophelia to Gertrude to Hecate. ~ Gabrielle Zevin
Ophelia quotes by Gabrielle Zevin
She ran her hand over the dash.
"You're petting my car," Hunter said, turning the key. "I usually charge for that. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Ophelia was beating some poor underling for not knowing her arse from the sparse collection of cells between her ears. ~ Molly Harper
Ophelia quotes by Molly Harper
The world and circumstances might tear us away from those we love, but I will always have faith that love is possible. ~ Ophelia Bell
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia Bell
Her arms slid around my back and I heard the softest moan in my ear as she snuggled into my chest. Her mouth pressed to my neck, not kissing, just ... there. On me.
Dammity-damn-damn-damn. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
What should such fellows as I do crawling between heaven and earth? ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
I want you alone," he whispered, gliding a hand around her hip, "on a slow boat to China. Days together, nights ... rocking on the waves. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
The time is out of joint : O cursed spite, that ever I was born to set it right! ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
One of the most elusive things about the white shark is their, uh..." His eyes moved to hers and he held them there.
"Their what?" she asked when he didn't finish, a bit rapt by his expression.
He kept his eyes locked on her.
"Their mating."
"Mating," she repeated, feeling a flutter in her stomach at the way he was looking at her...then suddenly not looking at her.
"We don't know if individual animals spawn in a certain spot every time --- kind of like a human might go to a particular pub if she wants some action. Juan an example, mind you?
She folded her arm, feeling her cheeks heat up. "Pub Uh-huh."
Jeff leaned against the railing, his expression looking smug at her embarrassment. "For all we know, sharks are just, ya know, doing it everywhere."
"Like the Kardasians?" ....
"But who know. Maybe, if we play just the right mood music, you and I will get lucky, Sharona Blaire."
Was he talking about shark reproduction... or human?
And... was he flirting? Earlier, he'd gone cold and hostile when she'd tried to apologize. The man was a ball of contradiction. A very sexy, very nice-smelling contradiction.
"Well." She swallowed, staring in his eyes. "I'm all for getting lucky. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
That if you be honest and fair, your honesty should admit no discourse to your beauty. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
Mr Bott sits down and gestures gracefully to the board. "As you are clearly both fascinated by this text, would you like to explain the significance of Laertes in Hamlet?" He looks at Alexa. "Please go first, Miss Roberts."
"Well ... " Alexa says hesitantly. "He's Ophelia's brother, right?"
"I didn't ask for his family tree, Alexa. I want to know his literary significance as a fictional character."
Alexa looks uncomfortable. "Well then, his literary significance is in being Ophelia's brother, isn't it? So she has someone to hang out with."
"How very kind of Shakespeare to give fictional Ophelia a fictional playmate so that she doesn't get fictionally bored. Your analytical skills astound me, Alexa. Perhaps I should send you to Set Seven with Mrs White and you can spend the rest of the lesson studying Thomas the Tank Engine. I believe he has lots of buddies too. ~ Holly Smale
Ophelia quotes by Holly Smale
I think you look ... very nice. the way he said it, with a slight pause and that sexy accent, made Sharona forget all about jet lag. Instead, she was on high flirt alert. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
And you do know I'm the one who decides who I date" - she glared at Sam - "not you. If I want to drag this guy into the janitor's closet and have my way with him, that's none of your business."
"Drag me into a closet?" Hunter asked, his eyebrows up near his hairline. "Offer to buy me dinner first, then I'm all yours. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
The boys quiet until Ben looks across the table at Chon, holds his thumb and index finger a millimeter apart, and says, "We're that close to being gay."
They laugh for half an hour.
Collective dicks ~ Don Winslow
Ophelia quotes by Don Winslow
Abby was laughing and panting for breath, her eyes bright, her face beaming under the sun. She spilled across the shore at my feet, her blond hair tangled and wet, clothes stuck to her body. She was the sexiest mermaid I'd ever seen. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Rashly,
And praised be rashness for it
let us know,
Our indiscretion sometime serves us well
When our deep plots do pall, and that should learn us
There's a divinity that shapes our ends,
Rough-hew them how we will ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
In his mind's eye, though, he sees -
- Taliban
moving like scorpions across a similar landscape
his own caravan blown to shit
blood streaming from buddies
Now I'm one of them
He sights in again.
No time for
Lack of PTSD
He only hopes that
Gentle Ben
Increase-the-Peace Ben
is one of them, too, now.
Now, Ben.
Find your inner Taliban. ~ Don Winslow
Ophelia quotes by Don Winslow
OPHELIA: Still better, and worse. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
I love you, too, Ophelia. God, loving you is the cruelest, most unkind thing I can do to you, and yet I'm going to do it anyway. Do you know what that means?" I tried to look away again - I was buried under an avalanche of emotion, and I felt as though I would suffocate from it. Sully wouldn't let me hide from him, though. He ducked down, bending so our eyes were locked once more. "Loving you isn't me telling you something we both already know. It's waking up together every morning. It's making love, and arguing and fighting, and dealing with each other's shit. It's walking across hot coals for you. It's protecting you, and keeping you, and honoring you always. There's no half measure in this, okay? So you have to be fucking sure, because once we travel down this road together, there is no turning back. There is no good ol' college try. There's me, and there's you. Forever. This will change me, and it'll change you, too. It's a part of us already. Once we let it overtake us, there won't be any turning back. Is that what you want?" "Is it what you want?" I asked in a small voice. "Don't do that. Own your feelings. You don't need to know what I think before you can make up your mind. ~ Callie Hart
Ophelia quotes by Callie Hart
Mourn for Ophelia, if you like. Put ashes on your head because Cordelia was strangled. Cry out against Heaven because the daughter of Brabantio died. But don't waste your tears over Sibyl Vane. She was less real than they are. ~ Oscar Wilde
Ophelia quotes by Oscar Wilde
Everyone says to you, 'if you play Ophelia, you'll end up crazy,' but we're all somewhere on the spectrum of mental health, and I think that if you approach it that way it's not such an intimidating issue. ~ Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Ophelia quotes by Gugu Mbatha-Raw
There are indeed all sorts of men/ who visit here: those who want/ nothing but to talk or hear the soft tones/ of a woman's voice; others prefer/ simply to gaze upon me, my face/ turned from them as they touch/ only themselves. And then there are those,/ of course, whose desires I cannot commit/ to paper. ~ Natasha Trethewey
Ophelia quotes by Natasha Trethewey
But did not Shakespeare say a man can smile, and smile, and be a villain? ~ Stephen King
Ophelia quotes by Stephen King
In that moment, I understood Ophelia more than I had in half a semester of my English teacher's lectures. Whether the boy you love is mad or pretending to be mad, wanting someone you can't understand or who won't let you understand will make you go mad yourself. Waiting for his affection was a version of Chinese water torture, desperately waiting for the next drop of any sign that he might like me, unsure when it would come, if it came at all. ~ Dana Schwartz
Ophelia quotes by Dana Schwartz
I will not go so far as to say that to construct a history of thought without profound study of the mathematical ideas of successive epochs is like omitting Hamlet from the play which is named after him. That would be claiming too much. But it is certainly analogous to cutting out the part of Ophelia. This simile is singularly exact. For Ophelia is quite essential to the play, she is very charming ... and a little mad. ~ Alfred North Whitehead
Ophelia quotes by Alfred North Whitehead
His eyes showed my heart the way to his soul, and I found all that mattered lay in him, in his keeping." -- Vittoria Colonna ~ Ophelia Sikes
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia Sikes
A visitor to campus can find sweet, aromatic Properity, as well as Climbing Ophelia and those delicious Egyptian Roses, which give off the scent of cloves on rainy days, ensuring that a gardener's hands will smell sweet for hours after pruning the canes. ~ Alice Hoffman
Ophelia quotes by Alice Hoffman
She kind of accidentally bumped into his chest on the way out. Well, maybe not so accidentally. She saw his muscles through his shirt
they'd just needed a closer physical inspection. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
If we ever fall in love, it will be out of our hearts' tricks. ~ Ophelia Callens
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia Callens
And Miss Ophelia?" he asked, getting round to her at last.
"Miss Ophelia? Well, to tell you the truth, Ned, we're all rather worried about her."
Ned recoiled as if a wasp had gone up his nose. "Oh? What's the trouble? Nothing serious, I hope."
"She's gone all green," I said. "I think it's chlorosis. Dr. Darby thinks so too. ~ Alan Bradley
Ophelia quotes by Alan Bradley
Now, I did know a certain young lady of the 'romantic' generation of not so long ago who, after being mysteriously in love for several years with a certain gentleman whom she could have married at any time without the least difficulty, suddenly broke off their relationship, inventing for herself all manner of insurmountable obstacles, and one stormy night plunged from a high, precipitous cliff into a fairly deep and fast-flowing river, where she perished from her own caprice solely through her attempt to imitate Shakespeare's Ophelia, for, had the precipice, which she had long before singled out and been compulsively drawn to, been less picturesque, and had there been only a prosaically flat bank in its stead, perhaps there would have been no suicide at all. ~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Ophelia quotes by Fyodor Dostoyevsky
I

On the calm black water where the stars are sleeping
White Ophelia floats like a great lily;
Floats very slowly, lying in her long veils...
- In the far-off woods you can hear them sound the mort.

For more than a thousand years sad Ophelia
Has passed, a white phantom, down the long black river.
For more than a thousand years her sweet madness
Has murmured its ballad to the evening breeze.

The wind kisses her breasts and unfolds in a wreath
Her great veils rising and falling with the waters;
The shivering willows weep on her shoulder,
The rushes lean over her wide, dreaming brow.

The ruffled water-lilies are sighing around her;
At times she rouses, in a slumbering alder,
Some nest from which escapes a small rustle of wings;
- A mysterious anthem falls from the golden stars.

II

O pale Ophelia! beautiful as snow!
Yes child, you died, carried off by a river!
- It was the winds descending from the great mountains of Norway
That spoke to you in low voices of better freedom.

It was a breath of wind, that, twisting your great hair,
Brought strange rumors to your dreaming mind;
It was your heart listening to the song of Nature
In the groans of the tree and the sighs of the nights;

It was the voice of mad seas, the great roar,
That shattered your child's heart, too human and too soft;
It was a hands ~ Arthur Rimbaud
Ophelia quotes by Arthur Rimbaud
What I love in a woman is not what she is in and for herself, but the side of herself she turns towards me, what she is for me. I love her as character in our common love story. what wuld Hamlet be without the castle at Elsinore, without Ophelia, without all the concrete situations he goes through, what would he be without the text of his part? What would be left but an empty, dumb, illusory essence? ~ Milan Kundera
Ophelia quotes by Milan Kundera
You Jig, you amble, and you lisp. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
Hmmm, you like that," he whispered, his breath hot and intoxicating.
"I like ... everything. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Lillian Gish may be a charming person, but she is not Ophelia. She comes on stage as if she had been sent for to sew rings on the new curtains. ~ Mrs. Patrick Campbell
Ophelia quotes by Mrs. Patrick Campbell
My mother read it when she was a teenager," Henry said, picking a piece of lint off his lap. "To Kill a Mockingbird. The day she accepted my father's proposal, she gave him a copy and told him that Atticus Finch is the kind of father she wants her husband to be. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
And just like that, I've become a
romantic. I blame Bruno Mars. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Pray, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
You're head can't do a relationship and my heart can't. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
She speaks much of her father; says she hears
There's tricks i' the world; and hems, and beats her heart;
Spurns enviously at straws; speaks things in doubt,
That carry but half sense.
(Ophelia) ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
Said Hamlet to Ophelia,
I'll draw a sketch of thee.
What kind of pencil shall I use?
2B or not 2B? ~ Spike Milligan
Ophelia quotes by Spike Milligan
There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember. ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
If your heart loses the ability to trust, you'll never love again. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
She sinks. She sinks in holy sadness. Like an Ophelia in tears she sinks ~ Georges Rodenbach
Ophelia quotes by Georges Rodenbach
Ophelia was bonkers, right? And Juliet was what, a sixth-grader? ~ Rainbow Rowell
Ophelia quotes by Rainbow Rowell
I asked if you'd rather me keep my shirt on."
"No. Why?"
"Should we throw a tarp over the statue of David while we're at it? ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Some people consider the way Shakespeare was writing about Ophelia as erotomania-that she was delusional in thinking that Hamlet was in love with her. But I don't think so. ~ Jack White
Ophelia quotes by Jack White
If I kissed her now, one of two things would happen. We'd either get naked right here on the beach and probably get arrested, or I'd somehow manage to get us up the hill to my house, and then we'd get naked.
But kissing her once, then letting her go. That ... wasn't possible. I couldn't kiss her then go back to my ordinary life. I wasn't Superman.
If I was, though, the girl in my arms was more lethal to me than kryptonite. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
It's the 'aloha spirit'."
"And you already got leid."
...
"He means the flowers," Ellie said with a snort. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
It seems to me that women would make much better sailors," Miss Ophelia interjected, setting aside her cup of rosehip tea. "You men are susceptible to all sorts of magical mischief, from mermaids to sirens to rusalki to whatever else has a female form and a nice voice. I have never heard of a woman wrecking a ship over some singing seahorse! ~ Diana Parparita
Ophelia quotes by Diana Parparita
Mel," I began, staring down, "there's something I have to tell you."
"I'm listening, babe."
"I kissed Henry when we were camping."
Well, it was a six-hour kiss, but who's counting? ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
As Hamlet said to Ophelia, "God has given you one face, and you make yourself another." The battle between these two halves of identity...Who we are and who we pretend to be, is unwinnable. "Just as there are two sides to every story, there are two sides to every person. One that we reveal to the world and another we keep hidden inside. A duality governed by the balance of light and darkness, within each of us is the capacity for both good and evil. But those who are able to blur the moral dividing line hold the true power. ~ Emily Thorne
Ophelia quotes by Emily Thorne
In the grand scheme of things, we share a mutual goal, but I'm not a distraction."
He couldn't help laughing, probably loudly enough to scare a school of hammerheads.
"What?"
"Sharona Blaire." He shook his head, keeping his eyes on the smooth ocean surface. "You've been nothing but the sexiest, most desirable distraction of my life." The admission hung in the air, suspended, and for a painful moment, he regretted being so open ... trusting.
"I guess that means we have something else in common, Jeff Cruz. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Ophelia always said Franny was the Fourth of July. ~ Benjamin Alire Saenz
Ophelia quotes by Benjamin Alire Saenz
Living in L.A., you couldn't help picking up tidbits of the surf culture, almost through osmosis ... it was in the air, like vitamin D and the odd Brad Pitt sighting. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
He pointed past her shoulder. We're surrounded by neighbors. Though once I have you inside, the walls are thick. You'll have to scream really loud for anyone to hear. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
She was running out of the room as fast as she could, with the sword raised before her. She called back to her father. I'll be back soon. I've just got to save the world. ~ Karen Foxlee
Ophelia quotes by Karen Foxlee
The impulse pumping through my body was to take ahold of her again and ease her head onto my chest. Well no, my actual impulse was to tear off her purple bra with my teeth and prove she was plenty Bond girl for me. But I sensed that might be a slight overkill ... ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
If you ever shoot a great magical owl with an arrow, you should remember this, Ophelia. Everything is connected. If you touch the ground, you touch the tops of trees. If you touch the trees, you touch the wings of birds. ~ Karen Foxlee
Ophelia quotes by Karen Foxlee
One slice of key lime pie. Two forks.' I felt Todd's hand on my arm. 'You'll thank me later.' No doubt I would. ~ Ophelia London
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia London
Be patient, Ophelia.

Love,
Hamlet ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Ophelia quotes by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
We're all toys." Ophelia sat down in a huff. "Broken and misused and thrown away." Ophelia looked to him. Her eyes were big, wet, and clear like river water. In that stare her soul shone as the diamond bright sky. "May as well play for a little while. ~ Eva Natsumi
Ophelia quotes by Eva Natsumi
Love changes everything. Or is it trust? ~ Ophelia Callens
Ophelia quotes by Ophelia Callens
How is it that the clouds still hang on you? ~ William Shakespeare
Ophelia quotes by William Shakespeare
