Most romantic OUTLANDER quote?
In honor of Valentine's Day, here's a question for all of you:
What do you think is the most romantic quote from the OUTLANDER books?
For me, it's hard to pick just one, but I like this one very much:
"And when my body shall cease, my soul will still be yours. Claire--I swear by my hope of heaven, I will not be parted from you."
(From Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 16 ("The First Law of Thermodynamics"). Copyright© 1997 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.)
That's from the scene in DRUMS where Jamie and Claire discover the site of Fraser's Ridge, and they discuss the prospect of Jamie's death. (One of those scenes that always makes me cry.)
What about the rest of you? Do you have a favorite romantic quote from the books?
Yes, definitely, that's one of my favorites as well! What a wonderful line to end the book on. :-)
