Love is...

Tuesday 26 January 2010

I'm reading this book set in Scotland 1600 AD or thereabouts. In it husband says to wife:
“I risked my life for ye, committing theft, arson, assault and murder into the bargain. In return for which ye call me names, insult my manhood, kick me in the bollocks and claw my face. Then I beat you half to death and tell ye all the most humiliating things have ever happened to me - AND THEN YOU TELL ME YOU LOVE ME.”
He just didn’t get it did he. And not much has changed in 400 years.

I know that book! Obviously since I am now far too lazy to read, I have it as an audiobook...but I have read it several times :)

Hmmm yes. And that Jamie is mighty fine. I would travel back in time for him too :)
