"Ism's"
 
 

Some of our Favorite quotes, from some of our favorite characters:





From Debi:
 
 

Colum to Claire....."Dougal is sometimes a Wee bit...impetuous"
**Outlander, Chapter 5, "The MacKenzie"**
 

Claire to Jamie... "Does it bother you that I'm not a virgin?"
Jamie to Claire..."Well, no, so long as it doesna bother you that I am"..."Reckon one of us should know what they're doing."
**Outlander, Chapter 13, "A Marriage is Announced"**
 

Jamie and Bonnet's conversation about Indians/Highlanders;
"Indeed" Bonnet sounded amused. "Well, from what I have heard of the
Scotch Highlanders, there is little to choose between them and the red
men for barbarous conduct."
"Nonsense," said Jamie, sounding not the least offended. "The red
savages eat the hearts of their enemies, or so I have heard. I prefer a
good dish of oatmeal parritch, myself.
**Drums of Autumn, Chapter 2, "IN WHICH WE MEET A GHOST"**
 


From Duke:

Jamie to Claire..."Lord," he said
softly.  "It's slippery as waterweed."
**Outlander,* chapter 18, p. 250 hb edition:**
 


From Sue:

Claire to herself..."I ran my
finger slowly across each line, murmuring each
man's name to myself like a prayer.  They
belonged to the cold spring night, more than I
did.  But I kept looking into the flames, letting
the dark outside come to fill the empty places
inside me.  And speaking their names as though to
summon them, I began the first steps back,
crossing the empty dark to where they waited."
**Dragonfly in Amber," chapter 1, p. 15 hb edition**
 


 

From JaniceM:

The Duke to Jamie..."Ah?" the Duke said. "And tell me , my lord, how does the sight make you feel after so many times?"
One corner of Jamie's mouth twitched as he replied, but he remained otherwise straight-faced. "Verra modest, Your Grace, " he said.
**From DIA, Chapter 22, "The Royal Stud"**
 

Jamie to Claire..."Don't be afraid, " he whispered into my hair. " There's the two of us now."
**Outlander, Chapter 15, "Revelations of the Bridal Chamber"**





From Denise:

Jamie is sending Claire back to the 20th century...

He pulled himself gently from my grasp without answering and stood back,
suddenly a figure from another time, seen in relief upon a background of
hazy hills, the life in his face a trick of the shadowing rock, as if
flattened beneath layers of paint, an artist's reminisence of forgotten
places and passions turned to dust.

I looked into his eyes, filled with pain and yearning , and he was flesh
again, real and immediate, lover, husband, man.
**From Outlander , Pg 410**





From Linda:
"All the time the ghosts flit past & through us, hiding in the future.  We
look in the mirror & see the shades of other faces looking back through the
years; we see the shape of memory, standing solid in an empty doorway.  By
blood & by choice, we make our ghosts; we haunt ourselves."
**From Drums of Autumn      Prologue**


 

From Mariane:

"ye are blood of my blood,
and Bone of my Bone.
I give you my Body,
that we two might be One.
I give you my Spirit,
'til our Life shall be Done."
**Part of the marriage vows between Jamie and Claire**
