Forks must be a difficult place for you to live.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 2, p.48
Bella? Are you all right?
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.57
Trust me.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.57
No blood, no foul.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.61
Someone has to spread the good news that we survived.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.62
I saved your life – I don’t owe you anything.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.64
You think I lifted a van off you?
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.65
I hope you enjoy disappointment.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 3, p.65
It’s better if we’re not friends. Trust me.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.74
You think I regret saving your life?
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.75
Bella, it’s not my fault if you are exceptionally unobservant.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.81
Bella, you are utterly absurd.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.82
The wasting of finite resources is everyone’s business.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.83
I said it would be better if we weren’t friends, not that I didn’t want to be.
Edward Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 4, p.84
So, as discussed, I am not allowed to wish you a happy birthday, is that correct?
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.9
Be good, please.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.16
Your wish, my command.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.16
You know, I’ve never had much patience with Romeo.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.17
Mistake after mistake. Could he have destroyed his own happiness any more thoroughly?
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.17
Last spring, when you were… nearly killed… Of course I was trying to focus on finding you alive, but part of my mind was making contingency plans. Like I said, it’s not as easy for me as it is for a human.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.18
Well, I wasn’t going to live without you. But I wasn’t sure how to do it—I knew Emmett and Jasper would never help… so I was thinking maybe I would go to Italy and do something to provoke the Volturi.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.19
Anyway, you don’t irritate the Volturi. Not unless you want to die—or whatever it is we do.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.20
I’ll never put you in danger again, so it’s a moot point.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.20
Bella, the last real birthday any of us had was Emmett in 1935. Cut us a little slack, and don’t be too difficult tonight. They’re all very excited.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.23
Bella, you gave yourself a paper cut — that hardly deserves the death penalty.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.44
Don’t try to take any of this on yourself, Bella. It will only make me more disgusted with myself.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.45
Don’t be melodramatic, please.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.45
You can’t have it both ways—either you want people to ignore your birthday or you don’t. One or the other.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.45
You’re greedy tonight.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.51
You’re overestimating my self-control.
Edward Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.52
I’ll let you pay me back, if that makes you happy. If you want, I can charge you interest.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.22
There’s no hurry. I won’t let anyone hurt you. You can take all the time you need.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.25
Monsters are not a joke, Bella.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.25
You know it’s out of the question for you to be around a werewolf unprotected, Bella. And it would break the treaty if any of us cross over onto their land. Do you want us to start a war?
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.28
If we could bottle your luck, we’d have a weapon of mass destruction on our hands.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.31
I’ll never forgive myself for leaving you. Not if I live a hundred thousand years.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.33
If I’d never left, you wouldn’t feel the need to go risk your life to comfort a dog.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.33
I don’t know how to phrase this properly. It’s going to sound cruel, I suppose. But I’ve come too close to losing you in the past. I know what it feels like to think I have. I am not going to tolerate anything dangerous.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.33
Please make a conscious effort to keep yourself safe. I’ll do everything I can, but I would appreciate a little help.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.33
Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you?
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.34
You aren’t the only one who’s been trapped in this house, you know.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.49
The outside world holds no interest for me without you.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.49
In that instant when they shift from one form to the other, they don’t really even exist. The future can’t hold them…
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.63
Shut your window if you want me to stay away tonight. I’ll understand.
Edward Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.64
Bachelor parties are designed for those who are sad to see the passing of their single days. I couldn’t be more eager to have mine behind me. So there’s really no point.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 2, p.24
It’s not right! I don’t want you to have to make sacrifices for me. I want to give you things, not take things away from you. I don’t want to steal your future.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 2, p.28
I’ve been waiting a century to marry you, Miss Swan.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 2, p.28
Oh, for the love of all that’s holy!
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 2, p.28
Let me introduce you to my wife.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.54
Enjoying the party, Mrs. Cullen?
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.55
I’m not surprised Mike’s having difficulty with improper thoughts about a married woman. I am disappointed that Alice didn’t make sure you were forced to look in a mirror.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.56
Go away, Alice.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.70
You’re awfully small to be so hugely irritating.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.71
I’m nothing if not thorough.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.78
I’m sure you’d like a human minute or two… It was a long journey.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.81
Don’t take too long, Mrs. Cullen.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.81
I wouldn’t use the word beautiful. Not with you standing here in comparison.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.85
Stop acting like I’m not a monster for having agreed to this.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.88
Do not say the word fine. If you value my sanity, do not say that you are fine.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.90
Did you expect this, Bella? Were you anticipating that I would hurt you? Were you thinking it would be worse? Do you consider the experiment a success because you can walk away from it? No broken bones – that equals a victory?
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 5, p.92
High school. Or was purgatory the right word?
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.1
I’d seen the new face repeated in thought after thought from every angle. Just an ordinary human girl. The excitement over her arrival was tiresomely predictable – like flashing a shiny object at a child. Half the sheep-like males were already imagining themselves in love with her, just because she was something new to look at.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.2
It was just the same as having my name called aloud. I was glad my given name had fallen out of style lately – it had been annoying; anytime anyone thought of any Edward, my head would turn automatically…
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.2
Alice and I were good at these private conversations. It was rare that anyone caught us.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.3
Was it really necessary to experiment like this? Wouldn’t the safer path be to just admit that he might never be able to handle the thirst the way the rest of us could, and not push his limits? Why flirt with disaster?
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.3
But humans rarely walked too close. Their instincts told them what their conscious minds would never understand: we were dangerous.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.3
We had to stick together, Alice and I. It wasn’t easy, hearing voices or seeing visions of the future. Both freaks among those who were already freaks. We protected each other’s secrets.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.4
Though Rosalie and Emmett were more flagrant about their relationship, it was Alice and Jasper who knew each other’s every mood as well as their own. As if they could read minds, too – only just each other’s.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.5
It used to be nearly impossible to escape her constant, ridiculous daydreams. I’d wished, at the time, that I could explain to her exactly what would have happened if my lips, and the teeth behind them, had gotten anywhere near her. That would have silenced those annoying fantasies.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.6
I tried to block the inane chatter out of my head before the petty and the trivial could drive me mad.
Edward Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.6
Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of someone else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Preface, p.1
When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it’s not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Preface, p.1
My primary motivation behind buying a car, despite the scarcity of my funds, was that I refused to be driven around town in a car with red and blue lights on top. Nothing slows down traffic like a cop.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.5
I do a good job of blocking painful, unnecessary things from my memory.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.6
The thing, I thought to myself… it had possibilities — as a nickname, at the very least.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.7
It was nice to be alone, not to have to smile and look pleased; a relief to stare dejectedly out the window at the sheeting rain and let just a few tears escape.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.9
Sometimes I wondered if I was seeing the same things through my eyes that the rest of the world was seeing through theirs. Maybe there was a glitch in my brain.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.11
Good luck tended to avoid me.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.11
I was expected, a topic of gossip no doubt. Daughter of the Chief’s flight ex-wife, come home at last.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.13
I can do this, I lied to myself feebly. No one was going to bite me.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.14
My mother is part albino.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.16
I tried to be diplomatic, but mostly I just lied a lot.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.17
I stared because their faces, so different, so similar, were all devastatingly, inhumanly beautiful.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.19
I felt a surge of pity, and relief. Pity because, as beautiful as they were, they were outsiders, clearly not accepted. Relief that I wasn’t the only newcomer here, and certainly not the most interesting by any standard.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.22
I’d noticed that his eyes were black – coal black.
Bella Swan, Twilight, Chapter 1, p.23
I felt like I was trapped in one of those terrifying nightmares, the one where you have to run, run till your lungs burst, but you can’t make your body move fast enough.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Preface, p.1
My own life meant little to me today.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Preface, p.1
As the clock began to toll out the hour, vibrating under the soles of my sluggish feet, I knew I was too late—and I was glad something bloodthirsty waited in the wings. For in failing at this, I forfeited any desire to live.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Preface, p.2
I was ninety-nine point nine percent sure I was dreaming.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.3
I didn’t have to look to know who it was; this was a voice I would know anywhere—know, and respond to, whether I was awake or asleep… or even dead, I’d bet. The voice I’d walk through fire for—or, less dramatically, slosh every day through the cold and endless rain for. Edward.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.4
Well, Gran, you might have noticed that my boyfriend glitters. It’s just something he does in the sun. Don’t worry about it…
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.4
In that second, I wished that I was not the one exception to his mysterious talent; I usually felt grateful that I was the only person whose thoughts he couldn’t hear just as clearly as if they were spoken aloud. But now I wished he could hear me, too, so that he could hear the warning I was screaming in my head.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.5
Edward stood beside me, casting no reflection, excruciatingly lovely and forever seventeen.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.6
I couldn’t feel anything but despair until I pulled into the familiar parking lot behind Forks High School and spotted Edward leaning motionlessly against his polished silver Volvo, like a marble tribute to some forgotten pagan god of beauty.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.7
Despair momentarily vanished; wonder took its place. Even after half a year with him, I still couldn’t believe that I deserved this degree of good fortune.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.7
How many times have you been a senior?
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.9
But Edward was dead set against any future that changed me. Any future that made me like him—that made me immortal, too. An impasse, he called it.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.10
What was so great about mortality? Being a vampire didn’t look like such a terrible thing—not the way the Cullens did it, anyway.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.10
Edward and I had been together too long now to be an object of gossip anymore.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.12
It was easy to see where his inspiration came from—but Edward’s look wasn’t something that could be achieved through imitation.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.12
Attention is never a good thing, as any other accident-prone klutz would agree. No one wants a spotlight when they’re likely to fall on their face.
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.12
College was Plan B. I was still hoping for Plan A, but Edward was just so stubborn about leaving me human…
Bella Swan, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.13
Black eyes, wild with their fierce craving for my death, watched for the moment when my protector’s attention would be diverted. The moment when I would surely die.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Preface, p.1
I could imagine the frustration pulling his black eyebrows together and crumpling his forehead. If I’d been there, I might have laughed. Don’t give yourself a brain hemorrhage, Jacob, I would have told him. Just spit it out.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.4
The word boyfriend had me chewing on the inside of my cheek with a familiar tension while I stirred. It wasn’t the right word, not at all. I needed something more expressive of eternal commitment… But words like destiny and fate sounded hokey when you used them in casual conversation.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.6
My dad was not a man of many words, and the effort he had put into trying to orchestrate a sit-down dinner with me made it clear there were an uncharacteristic number of words on his mind.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.7
It worked — your cooking skills have me soft as a marshmallow.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.9
It was against the rules for normal people — human people like me and Charlie — to know about the clandestine world full of myths and monsters that existed secretly around us. I knew all about that world — and I was in no small amount of trouble as a result.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.13
With Jacob there is a… conflict. A conflict about the friendship thing, I mean. Friendship doesn’t always seem to be enough for Jake.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.14
You and Billy gossip like old women.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.14
I’m shocked, Sheriff. That’s a federal crime.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.15
I wrenched the door out of my way — ridiculously eager — and there he was, my personal miracle.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
Staring into his eyes always made me feel extraordinary — sort of like my bones were turning spongy. I was also a little lightheaded, but that could have been because I’d forgotten to keep breathing. Again.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
His touch brought with it the strangest sense of relief — as if I’d been in pain and that pain had suddenly ceased.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
The idea of being in danger from even the most deadly of humans while I was with Alice or Edward was downright hilarious.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.21
I want to be a monster, too.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.25
I think it’s something about the inevitability. How nothing can keep them apart — not her selfishness, or his evil, or even death, in the end…
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.29
It’s a bit late for me to worry about who I fall in love with. But even without the warning, I seem to have managed fairly well.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.29
His face glowed with an expression of triumph that I didn’t understand – it was the expression an angel of destruction might wear while the world burned. Beautiful and terrifying.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.730
My teeth ground together; Aro was never more dangerous than when he was gracious.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.731
I analyzed their expressions as Aro turned back to us. His face was as benign as ever, but unlike before, I sensed a strange blankness behind the façade. As if his scheming was over. Caius was clearly incensed, but his race was turned inward now; he was resigned. Marcus looked… bored; there really was no other word for it.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.739
Happiness expanded like an explosion inside me – so extreme, so violent that I wasn’t sure I’d survive it.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.741
I couldn’t speak anymore. I lifted my head and kissed him with a passion that might possibly set the forest on fire. I wouldn’t have noticed.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.741
So there are real werewolves? With the full moon and silver bullets and all that?
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.745
You had me totally convinced that we were all going to die! I’ve been a wreck for weeks.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.746
This was about my acting skills?
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.746
I know it was rough for you, too. It’s just that… well, I missed you like crazy, Alice. Don’t do that to me again.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.747
The way everyone looked at me made me uncomfortable. Even Edward. It was like I had grown a hundred feet during the course of the morning. I tried to ignore the impressed looks, mostly keeping my eyes on Nessie’s sleeping face and Jacob’s unchanged expression. I would always be just Bella to him, and that was a relief.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.747
You are fairly ideal in every way.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.751
But most significant in this tidal wave of happiness was the surest fact of all: I was with Edward. Forever.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.752
I knew it was working then, so I concentrated even harder, dredging up specific memories I’d saved for this moment, letting them flood my mind, and hopefully his as well. Some of the memories were not clear – dim human memories, seen through weak eyes and heard through weak ears: the first time I’d seen his face… the way it felt when he’d held me in the meadow… the sound of his voice through the darkness of my faltering consciousness when he’d saved me from James… his face as he waited under a canopy of flowers to marry me… every precious moment from the island… his cold hands touching our baby through my skin… And the sharp memories, perfectly recalled: his face when I’d opened my eyes to my new life, to the endless dawn of immortality… that first kiss… that first night…
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.753
Now you know. No one’s ever loved anyone as much as I love you.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.753
I’m Jacob Black. You bought my dad’s truck.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.119
I don’t think a tank could take out that old monster.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.120
You wouldn’t happen to know where I could get my hands on a master cylinder for a 1986 Volkswagen Rabbit?
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.120
Do you like scary stories?
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.123
Another legend claims that we descended from wolves — and that the wolves are our brothers still.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.124
There are stories of the cold ones as old as the wolf legends, and some much more recent. According to legend, my own great-grandfather knew some of them. He was the one who made the treaty that kept them off our land.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.124
You see, the cold ones are the natural enemies of the wolf—well, not the wolf, really, but the wolves that turn into men, like our ancestors. You would call them werewolves.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.124
There’s always a risk for humans to be around the cold ones, even if they’re civilized like this clan was. You never know when they might get too hungry to resist.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.125
You have goose bumps.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.126
I guess I just violated the treaty.
Jacob Black, Twilight, Chapter 6, p.126
Speak of the devil and the devil shall appear.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 6, p.138
If either of you set so much as one toe on my land tomorrow…
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 6, p.141
Okay, but if you’re going to get picky like that, you have to average in size, too. You’re so small, I’ll have to knock ten years off your total.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 6, p.146
Here’s to responsibility. Twice a week.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.164
I believe that… we have a date.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.168
They’re just cliff diving, Bella. Recreation. La Push doesn’t have a mall, you know.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.171
Sometimes you’re a little strange, Bella. Do you know that?
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.172
I swear, they’re like hall monitors gone bad.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.173
He looks at me like he’s waiting for something… like I’m going to join his stupid gang someday. He pays more attention to me than any of the other guys. I hate it.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.176
If this is how you’re going to react, I’ll freak out more often.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 7, p.179
Why are you apologizing for bleeding?
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 8, p.188
Bella, I think you need stitches. I’m not going to let you bleed to death
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 8, p.189
I would have figured you for a trail kind of girl.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 8, p.197
Bears don’t want to eat people. We don’t taste that good. Of course, you might be an exception. I bet you’d taste good.
Jacob Black, New Moon, Chapter 8, p.200
Sorry. I don’t have any leeches on my speed dial.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.77
Better frightened than lied to.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.81
She’s tougher than you think. And she’s been through worse.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.81
It’s his own fault if he doesn’t like the things I remember, though.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.82
I think I might have been wrong before, you know, about not being able to be friends. Maybe we could manage it, on my side of the line. Come see me.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.83
I miss you every day, Bella. It’s not the same without you.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.83
The fortune-telling bloodsucker can’t see us? Seriously? That’s excellent!
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.104
He thought you were the one person in the world with as much reason to hate the Cullens as he does. Sam feels sort of… betrayed that you would just let them back into your life like they never hurt you.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.109
They shouldn’t exist. Their existence goes against nature.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.111
What I am was born in me. It’s a part of who I am, who my family is, who we all are as a tribe — it’s the reason why we’re still here.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.111
Normal humans run away from monsters, Bella. And I never claimed to be normal. Just human.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.112
You think I should be as forgiving as you are? We can’t all be saints and martyrs.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.119
Did you seriously just stamp your foot? I thought girls only did that on TV.
Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.119
Stop blubbering, Bella. You’ll ruin your dress. It’s just me.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.58
Yeah – the party can start. The best man finally made it.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.58
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 Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.59
I’m out of practice with the whole human thing.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.60
I tell you, if I could get rid of the voices in my head, being a wolf would be about perfect.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.61
Insanity is probably easier than sharing a pack mind. Crazy people’s voices don’t send babysitters to watch them.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.61
I’m just here to be your friend. Your best friend, one last time.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.62
You’d think I’d be used to telling you goodbye by now.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.63
You’re not supposed to be the one crying, Bella.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.63
That’s my girl.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.64
I’ll kill you. I’ll kill you myself! I’ll do it now!
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.67
Life sucks, and then you die. Yeah, I should be so lucky.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Book Two Preface, p.143
Jeez, Paul, don’t you freaking have a home of your own?
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 8, p.145
Wow, I bet Leah’s really going to love to hear that you want to spend some quality time with her. It’ll just warm the cockles of her heart.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 8, p.146
Back in the day, you could count on Paul for a fight pretty much whenever. You didn’t have to hit him then – any mild insult would do. It didn’t take a lot to flip him out of control. Now, of course, when I really wanted a good snarling, ripping, break-the-trees-down match, he had to be all mellow.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 8, p.147
![]()
I’m Carlisle. This is my family, Emmett and Jasper, Rosalie, Esme and Alice, Edward and Bella.
Carlisle Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 18, p.377
Please don’t take offense, but we’d appreciate it if you’d refrain from hunting in this immediate area. We have to stay inconspicuous, you understand.
Carlisle Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 18, p.378
She’s with us.
Carlisle Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 18, p.379
I’m afraid you’re going to have to make a choice.
Carlisle Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 19, p.400
Sorry about this, Bella. We couldn’t rein Alice in.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.26
Do you want me to drive you to the hospital, or would you like me to take care of it here?
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.31
What I enjoy the very most is when my… enhanced abilities let me save someone who would otherwise have been lost. It’s pleasant knowing that, thanks to what I can do, some people’s lives are better because I exist. Even the sense of smell is a useful diagnostic tool at times.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.34
Like everything in life, I just had to decide what to do with what I was given.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.35
So I didn’t agree with my father’s particular brand of faith. But never, in the nearly four hundred years now since I was born, have I ever seen anything to make me doubt whether God exists in some form or the other. Not even the reflection in the mirror.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.36
I’m sure all this sounds a little bizarre, coming from a vampire. But I’m hoping that there is still a point to this life, even for us. It’s a long shot, I’ll admit. By all accounts, we’re damned regardless. But I hope, maybe foolishly, that we’ll get some measure of credit for trying.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.36
I look at my… son. His strength, his goodness, the brightness that shines out of him—and it only fuels that hope, that faith, more than ever. How could there not be more for one such as Edward?
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.37
If you believed as he did. Could you take away his soul?
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.37
I think, in most other ways, that I’ve done the best I could with what I had to work with. But was it right to doom the others to this life? I can’t decide.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.38
That was a hard time to pretend—there was so much work to be done, and I had no need of rest. How I hated to go back to my house, to hide in the dark and pretend to sleep while so many were dying.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.39
I’ve never been sorry that I saved Edward.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.41
Tonight is exactly the kind of thing that he fears the most. You being put in danger, because of what we are.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 2, p.42
You’ve chosen not to live without her, and that doesn’t leave me a choice.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 24, p.534
She’ll come around when she’s ready, Edward. She’s had too much to deal with today. Let her mind protect itself.
Carlisle Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 25, p.566
As soon as we’re done here, I will do what I can to help him. Sam is trying to get him to phase back to his human form. That will make treating him easier. I’ve never been to veterinarian school.
Carlisle Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 25, p.567
Bella is already a daughter to me. A beloved daughter.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 12, p.234
I’ve seen vampire venom work miracles, but there are conditions that even venom cannot overcome. Her heart is working too hard now; if it should fail… there won’t be anything for me to do.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 12, p.235
She hasn’t gone for his throat even once.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.450
I wish treating humans were this instantaneously gratifying.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 23, p.454
I always wondered where the crown jewels disappeared to after John of England pawned them in the thirteenth century. I suppose it doesn’t surprise me that the Volturi have their share.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 27, p.532
We’ve done nothing! And if we had, what could we possibly do that would bring this down on us?
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 28, p.545
Don’t get your family slaughtered for pride.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 29, p.559
We have been friends for a long time, but I would never ask you to die for me.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 34, p.656
Aro, my old friend. It’s been centuries.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 36, p.685
I have not committed the crime you are here to punish me for.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 36, p.686
Is there no hope, then?
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 37, p.723
Try to find Alistair and tell him what happened. I’d hate to think of him hiding under a rock for the next decade.
Carlisle Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.744

Edward didn’t tell you he was musical?
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 15, p.325
I hope you haven’t been showing off— it’s rude.
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 15, p.325
There are exceptions to every rule.
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 15, p.325
He’s been the odd man out for far too long; it’s hurt me to see him alone.
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 17, p.368
You’re what he wants. It will work out, somehow.
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 17, p.368
Emmett hits the hardest, but Edward runs the fastest.
Esme Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 17, p.369
You will never put me through that again.
Esme Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 22, p.496
Stop her, Edward. She’ll be unhappy if she hurts him.
Esme Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.450

Eerie, isn’t it?
Emmett Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 17, p.367
He’s no match for us, Edward. He won’t be able to touch her.
Emmett Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 18, p.383
She’s diabolical.
Emmett Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 18, p.387
You haven’t changed at all. I expected a perceptible difference, but here you are, red-faced just like always.
Emmett Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.26
I have to step out for a second. Don’t do anything funny while I’m gone.
Emmett Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.26
It doesn’t count until she’s conscious, Rose.
Emmett Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 22, p.498
I’m really glad Edward didn’t kill you. Everything’s so much more fun with you around.
Emmett Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.93
Fall down again, Bella?
Emmett Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.342
I’ll try not to break anything.
Emmett Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 18, p.394
If you don’t send Edward out, we’re coming in after him!
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 2, p.29
You’re monopolizing the bride. Let me dance with my little sister. This could be my last chance to make her blush.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.69
Nice to have toddlers guarding the fort.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 11, p.221
Did ya get in a couple of good swipes?
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.442
Aw, what a waste. And here you’re probably the one person who could take him – since he can’t get in your head to cheat – and you had a perfect excuse, too. I’ve been dying to see how he’d do without that advantage.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.442
So it’s still standing? I would’ve thought you two had knocked it to rubble by now. What were you doing last night? Discussing the national debt?
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.490
I’m sure you’ll ace your classes… apparently there’s nothing interesting for you to do at night besides study.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.491
‘Bout time somebody scored around here.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.511
I’m not even sure she’s really a vampire, let alone a newborn. She’s too tame.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 26, p.517
Oooo, scary.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 26, p.517
You gonna back down so easy, little sister? Not much wild about you, is there? I bet that cottage doesn’t have a scratch. Did Edward tell you how many houses Rose and I smashed?
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 26, p.520
Chill, Bella.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 28, p.549
I’m not going down without a fight.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 29, p.561
Hard to feel confident when you’re surrounded by horse-sized wolves.
Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.745
What is she to me? Except a menace — a danger you’ve chosen to inflict on all of us.
Rosalie Hale, Twilight, Chapter 19, p.401
I’m so very sorry, Bella. I feel wretched about every part of this, and so grateful that you were brave enough to go save my brother after what I did. Please say you’ll forgive me.
Rosalie Hale, New Moon, Chapter 22, p.497
I don’t mean that I have any aversion to you as a sister. It’s just that… this is not the life I would have chosen for myself. I wish there had been someone there to vote no for me.
Rosalie Hale, New Moon, Chapter 24, p.534
If we had happy endings, we’d all be under gravestones now.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.154
Admiration was like air to me, Bella. I was silly and shallow, but I was content.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.155
You know, my record is almost as clean as Carlisle’s. Better than Esme. A thousand times better than Edward. I’ve never tasted human blood.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.163
I did murder five humans. If you can really call them human. But I was very careful not to spill their blood — I knew I wouldn’t be able to resist that, and I didn’t want any part of them in me, you see.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.163
I don’t want Edward that way, Bella. I never did — I love him as a brother, but he’s irritated me from the first moment I heard him speak. You have to understand, though . . . I was so used to people wanting me. And Edward wasn’t the least bit interested. It frustrated me, even offended me in the beginning. But he never wanted anyone, so it didn’t bother me long. Even when we first met Tanya’s clan in Denali — all those females! — Edward never showed the slightest preference. And then he met you.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.164
Edward has always been a little strange.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.165
You already have everything. You have a whole life ahead of you — everything I want. And you’re going to just throw it away. Can’t you see that I’d trade everything I have to be you? You have the choice that I didn’t have, and you’re choosing wrong!
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.166
You don’t want to be rash about permanent things, Bella.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.167
I apologize for being such a monster. I’ll try to behave myself from now on.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.168
I know you’re frustrated that he’s keeping you locked up like this, but don’t give him too bad a time when he gets back. He loves you more than you know. It terrifies him to be away from you.
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.168
Over my pile of ashes.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 10, p.186
Where’s the flood, mutt?
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 14, p.271
About time. The chainsaw impersonation was getting a little tired.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 14, p.278
Oh, wonderful. I knew I smelled something nasty.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 15, p.292
Enjoy, mongrel.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 15, p.294
Of course there were no survivors. Giving birth in the middle of a disease-infested swamp with a medicine man smearing sloth spit across your face to drive out the evil spirits was never the safest method.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 15, p.303
You. Got. Food. In. My. Hair.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 15, p.304
I’m not going to forget this, dog.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 15, p.304
Ew. Someone put the dog out.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 16, p.323
I have killed a hundred times more often than you have, you disgusting beast. Don’t forget that.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 16, p.324
I’ll help him toss you, dog. I owe you a good kick in the gut.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.447
The more time he spends here, the less chance there is that we’ll ever get the smell out.
Rosalie Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.491

Actually, Alice says there’s going to be a real storm tonight, and Emmett wants to play ball. Are you game?
Jasper Hale, Twilight, Chapter 16, p.346
I can feel what you’re feeling now — and you are worth it.
Jasper Hale, Twilight, Chapter 19, p.404
You have nothing to worry about. You are completely safe here.
Jasper Hale, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.410
You’re worrying about all the wrong things, Bella. Trust me on this — none of us are in jeopardy. You are under too much strain as it is; don’t add to it with wholly unnecessary worries. Listen to me! Our family is strong. Our only fear is losing you.
Jasper Hale, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.410
She’s one of us now.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.285
Our venom is the only thing that leaves a scar.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.287
Before I tell you my story, you must understand that there are places in our world, Bella, where the life span of the never-aging is measured in weeks, and not centuries.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.287
If not for the Volturi, the rest of us would be quickly exposed.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.288
My instincts told me that there was danger, that the angel had meant it when she spoke of killing, but my judgment overruled my instincts. I had not been taught to fear women, but to protect them.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.294
When you live for the fight, for the blood, the relationships you form are tenuous and easily broken.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.299
In so many years of slaughter and carnage, I’d lost nearly all of my humanity. I was undeniably a nightmare, a monster of the grisliest kind.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.300
After a century of instant gratification, I found self-discipline… challenging.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.301
You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.301
We have a few advantages, dog. It will be an even fight.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.379
You truly are one frightening little monster.
Jasper Hale, Eclipse, Chapter 18, p.396
I’ve never seen a newborn do that – stop an emotion in its tracks that way. You were upset, but when you saw our concern, you reined it in, regained power over yourself. I was prepared to help, but you didn’t need it.
Jasper Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 20, p.404
I can’t understand. I can’t bear this.
Jasper Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 23, p.464
It’s just been my experience that some kinds of working relationships are better motivated by fear than by monetary gain.
Jasper Hale, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.749

You do smell nice, I never noticed before.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 15, p.323
It sounded like you were having Bella for lunch, and we came to see if you would share.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 16, p.346
That won’t help. I could smell her across the field.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 17, p.373
It’s been almost a century that Edward’s been alone. Now he’s found you. You can’t see the changes that we see, we who have been with him for so long. Do you think any of us want to look into his eyes for the next hundred years if he loses you?
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.410
Bella, how many times do we have to tell you that there’s no danger to us?
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.412
I will always tell you the truth.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.412
As predators, we have a glut of weapons in our physical arsenal — much, much more than really necessary. The strength, the speed, the acute senses, not to mention those of us like Edward, Jasper, and I, who have extra senses as well. And then, like a carnivorous flower, we are physically attractive to our prey.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.413
It’s difficult on both sides — the blood-lust on the one hand, the awful pain on the other.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.414
For everyone else, the pain of transformation is the sharpest memory they have of their human life. I remember nothing of being human.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 20, p.414
Some things are more certain than others… like the weather. People are harder. I only see the course they’re on while they’re on it. Once they change their minds — make a new decision, no matter how small — the whole future shifts.
Alice Cullen, Twilight, Chapter 22, p.435
You’re only a senior once. Might as well document the experience.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 1, p.9
I’d forgotten how exuberant you are.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.383
He was a fool to think you could survive alone. I’ve never seen anyone so prone to life-threatening idiocy.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.386
Your best friend is a werewolf?
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.387
Edward was right—you’re a magnet for danger. Weren’t you supposed to be staying out of trouble?
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.387
Leave it to you, Bella. Anyone else would be better off when the vampires left town. But you have to start hanging out with the first monsters you can find.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.387
You look like hell, Bella.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 17, p.389
Save your remorse for someone who believes it.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 18, p.415
I don’t think he ever planned to outlive you by long.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 18, p.418
We may already be too late. I saw him going to the Volturi… and asking to die.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 18, p.419
If he gives into his more theatrical tendencies… we might have time.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 18, p.419
There’s a very good chance that they will eliminate us all—though in your case it won’t be punishment so much as dinnertime.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 18, p.420
You don’t get a lot of suicidal vampires.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.431
You know what. If we’re too late for Edward, I’m going to do my damnedest to get you back to Charlie, and I don’t want any trouble from you. Do you understand that?
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.431
Honestly, I think it’s all gotten beyond ridiculous. I’m debating whether to just change you myself.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.436
You are so bizarre, even for a human.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.437
How strongly are you opposed to grand theft auto?
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.439
Trust me, Bella. If anyone sets up a roadblock, it will be behind us.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.440
Try not to trip. We don’t have time for a concussion today.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 19, p.441
Let’s behave ourselves, shall we? There are ladies present.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 20, p.455
In summary, she did jump off a cliff, but she wasn’t trying to kill herself. Bella’s all about the extreme sports these days.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 20, p.457
I think she’s having hysterics. Maybe you should slap her.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 22, p.486
Seriously, Bella! I don’t have any idea how to not kill you.
Alice Cullen, New Moon, Chapter 24, p.535
I’m offended. You’re not honestly worried about this, are you?
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.93
Haven’t you noticed yet, Bella, that Edward is just the teeniest bit prone to overreaction?
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.93
This hostage stuff is fun.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 6, p.150
Edward, if I try to do too much, things are going to start slipping through the cracks.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 9, p.202
Edward is making me do this. But I did foresee that you would be more difficult if I surprised you.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.267
Don’t be a baby about this. No tantrums.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.267
And you ducked your head, like a good Southern gentleman, and said, ‘I’m sorry, ma’am.’
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 13, p.301
You don’t get to be human again, Bella. This is a once-in-a-lifetime shot.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.311
You don’t have anything like this. For crying out loud, you only own one skirt!
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 16, p.348
If someone wants one of us, they’re going to have to go through the rest of us to get to her.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 16, p.350
I’ll warn him if your plans get any more defined. It doesn’t help anything for you to put yourself in danger. Do you think either of them would give up if you died? They’d still fight, we all would. You can’t change anything, so just be good, okay?
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 18, p.396
You worry too much, Bella. You’re going to go prematurely gray.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 19, p.423
Edward is such a grouch when he doesn’t get his way.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 19, p.423
I don’t care whose idea it was. How could you do this to me? I expect that kind of thing from Edward, but not from you. I love you like you were my own sister.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.465
You know, Edward, as a brother, you are sometimes a disappointment.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.467
Overprotective fool.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 25, p.569
Play your role first, Bella, and then you can do what you want second. Part of being a Cullen is being meticulously responsible.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.581
It might be different for you. I’ve never seen anyone go through this who’s chosen it beforehand. It should be interesting to see how that affects you.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.583
You are safe inside your mind. No one can reach you there. It’s no wonder that Aro was so curious about your future abilities.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.584
I’m sorry. I can’t really empathize. My first memory is of seeing Jasper’s face in my future; I always knew that he was where my life was headed. But I can sympathize. I’m so sorry you have to choose between two good things.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.585
Go play with Edward. I have to get to work.
Alice Cullen, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.614
Thirty seconds, please, Bella. Your patience will be rewarded.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 1, p.20
No one dressed by me ever looks like an idiot.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 1, p.20
Go to your happy place, Bella. It won’t take long.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 1, p.21
You’d think I was shoving bamboo splinters under your nails.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 1, p.21
I’ve only allotted so much time to make you stunning, Bella – you might have taken better care of my raw material.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3, p.40
You’ll be my sister officially in ten short hours… it’s about time you get over this aversion to new clothes.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3, p.40
No one will dare to call you plain when I’m through with you.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3, p.42
Deep breaths, Bella. And try to lower your heart rate. You’re going to sweat off your new face.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3, p.43
Focus, Bella. Edward is waiting for you down there.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 3, p.47
Do you want to miss your plane? I’m sure you’ll have a lovely honeymoon camped out in the airport waiting for another flight.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.70
I’ll tell her where you’re taking her, Edward. So help me, I will.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 4, p.71
She’s going to be dazzling.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 19, p.383
You promised I could be there the first time! What if you two run past something reflective?
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 20, p.401
Edward gave me grief for not getting you to a mirror before the wedding. I’m not going to be chewed out again.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 20, p.402
Her fashion sense hasn’t improved as much as her balance.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 21, p.409
Oh, give her some credit. She wasn’t going to do anything. You’d want a closer look, too.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, p.439
But look at how she’s dressed. It’s been killing me all day. That is clearly the priority.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 24, p.472
I know – I’ll play you for it. Rock, paper, scissors.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 24, p.472
She has never been set down in her entire life. She’s going to be the most spoiled half-vampire I existence.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 24, p.473
Look at you! You need me to show you how to use your closet.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.492
Yes, yes, she always looks gorgeous.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 25, p.501
Just get it off your chest, Bella.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.746
You’re just not that good an actress.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.746
I missed you, too, Bella. So forgive me, and try to be satisfied with being the superhero of the day.
Alice Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, p.747
It helps a little if you think of them as people.
Alice Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.4
I’ll miss you. No matter how short a time you’re gone.
Alice Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.27
You will do the right thing. She’s Charlie Swan’s only family. It would kill him, too.
Alice Cullen, Midnight Sun, Chapter 1, p.28

Mine is bigger.
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 27, p.538
What if they don’t like me?
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 30, p.582
But Momma, I want to help.
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 32, p.620
I love you, too, Momma. We’ll always be together.
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 35, p.675
I get to stay with you?
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 38, p.741
