Dare It All for Love Quotes

“I cannot tell Mama, or she will tell Papa and he’ll be disappointed in me and that is worse than any other fate imaginable, even the villain’s.”
― Emma V. Leech, Dare It All for Love

“I want what I see when my parents look at each other. I want a man who will stand by me, no matter what, who will never let me down. A man who keeps his promises and honours his wife and family, a man who is proud of me for having opinions, even if he doesn’t always agree with them and never tries to silence me. I want a man who will discuss instead of arguing, who will seek my counsel before deciding on things that affect our family, who will allow me to make decisions for myself instead of telling me what I must do. Someone who will love me for who I am, the good and the bad, not just the pretty face I must present to society and the fat purse marrying me will give him. That is what I want.”
