“You are the most dangerous kind of female the world can ever know. You carry the seeds for your own destruction and the destruction of everyone who loves you. And a great many will love you for your beautiful face for your seductive body; but you will fail them all because you will believe they all fail you first. You are an idealist of the worst kind - the romantic idealist. Born to destroy and self destruct.”
V.C. Andrews, Fallen Hearts

“What is normal? Normal is only ordinary; mediocre. Life belongs to the rare, exceptional individual who dares to be different.”
V.C. Andrews, My Sweet Audrina

“Life is like that - twenty minutes of misery for every two seconds of joy.”
V.C. Andrews, If There Be Thorns
