Dark Visions - The Strange Power #Quotes - L.J Smith

"You don't invite the local witch to parties. No matter how beautiful she is."

"You have something inside you that won't be repressed. A hidden power that burns like a flame," he went on. "You're superior to the rest of humanity - don't ever forget that."

“By the way,” he said, turning, “everyone else had better keep out of here. After you spend so much time in lockup, you get to like your space. You get kind of territorial. I wouldn't want anybody to get hurt.” ... Gabriel gave her [Kaitlyn] a long, measuring look. Then he flashed a brilliant, unsettling smile. “You can come in any time you like”

                          

“He’d have to make sure it was just a diversion.  That kind of girl might be too interesting, might tempt you to get involved. . . And that could never happen again.” 

                                     

   

“If everybody could feel that [people’s pain] things would be different.  There wouldn’t be any murder or torture or stuff—because nobody would want to cause pain to anybody else.” 

                                      

"Good night, Gabriel.” she said 

You jerk. 

He widened his eyes. “Don't you want to stay? It's a big bed."

                                    

“If it had been a touch, it might have been pressure—not an uncomfortable pressure, but one that swept away all the pain of her headache.  Like a river rushing through her mind, clearing out everything stagnant and clotted and decayed.”  

                                 

“Why should Gabriel care about her, a girl that was involved with a guy he hated?  A girl who could only disturb him. . . A girl with hair like fire and witch eyes, his mind whispered.  A girl who hounded, badgered him . . . Who challenges you, his mind whispered.  Who could be your equal.” 

                                        

“Hi, Anna” Kaitlyn said, feeling somewhat resigned herself.

“Hi Kait.”

“Hi, Anna,” Lewis said chirpily.

“And good night, John-boy!”  Gabriel shouted from across the house.  “Shut the hell up, all of you!” 

                                       

“It would have been like losing me, like loosing my own soul,” Rob said, but it wasn’t really like him saying it to her, it was like he were simply realizing these things himself.  “And now it’s like finding my soul again.  The other half of me.”      

“I’m with you.  I belong to you.  I’m a part of you.  I will be forever.”  Kaitlyn didn’t even know which of them was speaking.  The feelings were in both of them.  “We were born for this.”
