Diana Gabaldon Zitate

„Oh. It’s Fraser. James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser.“

„Cirein Croin!“

„Verschwundene sind das täglich' Brot der Journalisten.“

„Oh ja, Sassenach. Ich bin dein Meister … und du gehörst mir. Es scheint, ich kann deine Seele nicht besitzen, ohne meine eigene zu verlieren.“

„Hab keine Angst. Wir sind jetzt beide.“

„Ich will nur, dass du mich liebst. Nicht wegen dem, was ich tun kann oder wie ich aussehe oder weil ich dich liebe - nur weil ich da bin.“

„Denn wo alle Liebe ist, ist das Sprechen unnötig.“

“Does it ever stop? The wanting you?" "Even when I've just left ye. I want you so much my chest feels tight and my fingers ache with wanting to touch ye again.”

“But I talk to you as I talk to my own soul," he said, turning me to face him. He reached up and cupped my cheek, fingers light on my temple.

"And, Sassenach," he whispered, "your face is my heart.”

“Ye werena the first lass I kissed,” he said softly. “But I swear you’ll be the last.” And he bent his head to my upturned face.”

“There aren't any answers, only choices”

“We are bound, you and I, and nothing on this earth shall part me from you.”

“If I die," he whispered in the dark, "dinna follow me. The bairns will need ye. Stay for them. I can wait.”

“All I want, is for you to love me. Not because of what I can do or what I look like, or because I love you - just because I am.”

“He turned his head to look full at me, his hair fire-struck with the setting sun, face dark in silhouette. "Twenty-four years ago today, I married ye, Sassenach," he said softly. "I hope ye willna have cause yet to regret it." -Jamie Fraser”

“It has always been forever, for me, Sassenach,” he said simply.”

“For where all love is, the speaking is unnecessary”

“I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have.”

“Oh, aye, Sassenach. I am your master… and you're mine. Seems I canna possess your soul without losing my own.”

“Forgiveness is not a single act, but a matter of constant practice.”

“Do ye not understand?"he said, in near desparation. "I would lay the world at your feet, Claire-and I have nothing to give ye!"
He honestly thought it mattered.”

“Sometimes our best action result in things that are most regrettable.”

“To see the years touch ye gives me joy", he whispered, "for it means that ye live.”

“I kissed his cheek, damp and salty. I could feel his heart beating against my ribs, and wanted nothing more than to stay there forever, not moving, not making love, just breathing the same air.”

“Any piece of good music is in essence a love song.”

“No matter how ugly the manner in which a man dies, it’s only the presence of a suffering human soul that is horrifying, once gone, what is left is only an object.”

“I stood still, vision blurring, and in that moment, I heard my heart break. It was a small, clean sound, like the snapping of a flower's stem.”

“Don't be afraid. There's the two of us now.”

“Blood of my Blood," he whispered, "and bone of my bone. You carry me within ye, Claire, and ye canna leave me now, no matter what happens, You are mine, always, if ye will it or no, if ye want me or nay. Mine, and I wilna let ye go.”

“You're tearin' my guts out, Claire.”

“Where did you learn to kiss like that?” I said, a little breathless. He grinned and pulled me close again.

“I said I was a virgin, not a monk,” he said, kissing me again. “If I find I need guidance, I’ll ask.”

“You are safe," he said firmly. "You have my name and my family, my clan, and if necessary, the protection of my body as well. The man willna lay hands on ye again, while I live.”

“D'ye think I don't know?" he asked softly. "It's me that has the easy part now. For if ye feel for me as I do for you-then I'm asking you to tear out your heart and live without it.”

“You are mine, always, if ye will it or no, if ye want me or nay. Mine, and I willna let ye go”

“If it was a sin for you to choose me… then I would go to the Devil himself and bless him for tempting ye to it.”

“Oh, Claire, ye do break my heart wi' loving you.”
