Lincoln: I don't think I care what she looks like.
Rainbow Rowell

"Then it's definitely not true.

Demetri Martin
#4. I wanted to be a poet. I had a really romantic idea about what that would mean. My parents knew some poets, and I liked how they dressed and acted, but I didn't really acknowledge that I only liked reading some bits of poetry while I was peeing or something.
Lena Dunham
#6. I don't like the piano player music of the movies, the Michael Nyman, and sometimes that piano music makes me puke. It's not really romantic. It's just trying to get your Pavlovian juices flowing because it's a technique now.
Charlemagne Palestine
#7. The musician lifestyle is not easy for most people to understand. This is something I'm struggling with. When you're on tour, people think you're just having the time of your life and it's really romantic.
Sharon Van Etten
#8. I seem to be drawn to the really romantic songs.
Vonda Shepard

Richard Paul Evans
#10. I had my baby outside in a thunderstorm. It was really romantic.
Evangeline Lilly
#11. I find 'Fatal Attraction' really romantic. I really like the seduction. Almost every time I see it, I'm surprised when it goes dark. I know that's the claim to fame, but I key into how genuinely romantic it is.
Shane Carruth
#12. There's really not much in life that's as violent or traumatic as an encounter with somebody who really surprises you and opens up that strange dynamic that's involved in romantic love.

Max Thieriot
#15. 'Natural Born Killers' is really a misunderstood romantic comedy.
Woody Harrelson
#16. I will always try to be happy. I don't think people really understand the value of happiness until they know what it's like to be in that very, very dark place. It's not romantic. Not even a little.
Sarah Silverman
#17. Also, my humor is really dry-witted, Canadian humor, so some people get it and some people don't. I'd be great on "The Office." I would like to be on that show. And, I could see me doing romantic comedy films, and stuff like that.
Tinsel Korey
#18. I think that sometimes, romantic comedies have to be really broad, and that the plot of people falling in and out of love or whatever is not enough. 'Enough Said' had that stuff, but I wanted it to be fun and funny while also grounded in reality.
Nicole Holofcener
#19. What I'd really like to write is a romantic comedy. This is my favorite kind of movie. I feel almost embarrassed revealing this, because the genre has been so degraded in the past twenty years that saying you like romantic comedies is essentially an admission of mild stupidity.
Mindy Kaling
#21. I don't know if I'd want to be a Secret Service agent. In the movies, it's exciting and romantic and all that. Really, most of their job is standing in a hallway for 12 hours making sure somebody doesn't come through a doorway off of a stairwell.
Dennis Quaid
#22. She really needed to stop reading romantic suspense because now horror stories from authors like Shiloh Walker were on her mind and a little too vivid for what she needed at the moment.
Carrie Ann Ryan
#23. I like things that start depressing and dark and end up romantic, and that's what I really loved about 'King Kong.'
Petra Haden
#24. The amount of speculation surrounding my romantic life is astounding. It's strange how involved people get: invested and angry, really disappointed.
Sienna Miller
#25. Vision is a romantic thing. We have got into 'talent identification'. I am much more interested in passion - finding people who are really excited about doing something.
Sebastian Coe
#26. I think if you're going to be committed to doing anything, you really have to care about it, and I suppose that is a romantic idea.
Tony Benn
#27. I do know that I like to play characters that are sometimes a little on the outside - that's because it feels kind of romantic and sexier to me. I really think they are the people that we learn lessons from.
Willem Dafoe
#28. In terms of romantic films, all-time romantic films, I really like 'Gone With the Wind.' And I realize I sound so cliched saying that, but there's something so absolutely romantic about it.
Freida Pinto
#29. She blinked at him, mouth open. "Do you really think it's wise to insult a woman who's holdin' a needle this far away? - she held her fingers an inch apart - "From your Grand Master of Ceremonies?
Julie Ann Walker

Chet Baker
#32. I'm always trying to reach a transcendent point, a romantic point, but reach it in a really unconventional way, a really profane way. To get to that romantic, touching, heartbreaking place, but through a lot of acts of profanity.
Chuck Palahniuk
#33. Vinyl is the real deal. I've always felt like, until you buy the vinyl record, you don't really own the album. And it's not just me or a little pet thing or some kind of retro romantic thing from the past. It is still alive.
Jack White
#34. Maybe someday, I'd find someone who'd prove he really loved me. Someone who'd hold me rather than let me fall. Someone who'd never lie to me.
J.C. Reed
#35. Yeah, that went really well. What, I wasn't gentle enough for you? Were you looking for flowers and candles? You don't like to sweat? Are you really a romantic under the tough guy swagger?"
Gabriel straightened. "No, but Oz said that you are."
~Dev/Gabe
Sydney Croft
#36. I really love the idea of the poetically mad - the character that is imbued with the romantic madness. Like River from 'Firefly' or Drusilla from 'Buffy.' Someone dangerously unhinged, where you're really not sure they're going to be reliable minute-to-minute.
Holly Black
#37. Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all
Benjamin Franklin
#38. Many marriages falter, it seems to me, not because the couples are out of love, but because they have never been friends as much as lovers. They may love each other, in a vaporously romantic way, but they do not really like each other as individual personalities.
Sydney J. Harris
#39. Woody Allen is really the ultimate. I love that he believed in himself enough to do what he did. And I have that same feeling - that there's nobody that looks like me in movies, nobody would cast me as a romantic lead, but I want to do it and I feel confident that I can.
Mindy Kaling
#40. The thing you can't let go of is gravity. The reality of gravity in writing. If someone says something really mean in a sitcom, and the next wave isn't a reaction to the reality of that, you start losing relatability. In a lot of romantic comedies, they throw out the rules of life.
Michael Patrick King
#41. I didn't like the King's Cross world: it was grimy and dirty. I always envisioned myself in much more romantic and grand surroundings. I never really thought that I belonged to the working-class area at all.
Kenneth Williams
#42. People say the 'Lost Generation' in a romantic sense, but I think it was tragic. They were really lost.
Corey Stoll
#43. He looked like how Victorian Romantic poets looked just before the consumption and drug abuse really started to cut it.
Terry Pratchett
#44. And as we round the bend toward Ivy Cottage, he tugs my braid just the way he always has ever since I was six, and then he reaches down and takes my hand.
Maybe sometimes dreams really do come true.
Heather Vogel Frederick
#45. I think opera has gained a kind of glamorous appeal. It's a live performance that aligns all of the arts, and when it is represented in the media, in film in particular, it is presented as something that is really a special event, whether it's a great date or something that's just hugely romantic.
Renee Fleming
#46. V's smile didn't last long. "Don't get your romantic side fired up about me and Jane, buddy.
She's human."
Butch's jaw dropped and he pulled a bobble. "No, really? That's such a shocker! And here I thought she
was a sheep."
V shot Butch a fuck-ya stare.
J.R. Ward
#47. She was the wish of his life. He didn't know how else to say it. He didn't even know that he could really explain, just that every time he saw her he felt his bones might break under the weight of his wanting. His longing for her.
C.J. Carlyon
#48. Friendship is what really resolves and mitigates loneliness while not compromising the self in the way that love does, romantic love does.

Sarah Silverman
#52. I wouldn't treat a romantic scene any differently than any other scene. I would really say the biggest preparation was chewing gum and breath mints! For a kissing scene, it's all about the breath mints!
Alice Englert
#53. My books are love stories at core, really. But I am interested in manifestations of love beyond the traditional romantic notion. In fact, I seem not particularly inclined to write romantic love as a narrative motive or as an easy source of happiness for my characters.
Khaled Hosseini
#54. Okay, my life isn't that romantic! No one has ever sung to me or wrote a song about me. But, I have to say that it's pretty much the most romantic thing ever. So, if that were ever to really happen to me, I would be really happy about it.
Chloe Bridges
#55. Oh, how wonderfully romantic of you. Romantics are really only in love with themselves.
Miguel Syjuco
#56. With 'Attachments,' my goal was to write a really good romantic comedy. I wanted the reader to be smiling throughout.
Rainbow Rowell
#57. I am really not a girl to fall in love with. For one thing, I don't like temporary, nonprovable things, and romantic love is both temporary and nonprovable.
Nicola Yoon
#58. Sometimes I feel like a normal person. Sometimes I forget I'm on parole, that I'm not really free.
Jennifer Lane

Sara Bareilles
#61. Then, as now, there were always girls who were overlooked and ignored by gentlemen who really should have known better.

John McGahern
#63. Romantic love is mental illness. But it's a pleasurable one. It's a drug. It distorts reality, and that's the point of it. It would be impossible to fall in love with someone that you really saw.
Fran Lebowitz
#64. At the risk of sounding hopelessly romantic, love is the key element. I really love to play with different musicians who come from different cultural backgrounds.
John McLaughlin
#65. There's something really great and romantic about being poor and sleeping on couches.
Ben Affleck
#67. Then he kissed my eyelids. Kind of licked them. And if you've never had someone lick your eyelids, you should know that it's not exactly romantic and it's even a tiny bit gross, but it feels like the other person really likes you and accepts you somehow.
E. Lockhart
#68. Love is worth so much more than money. There are so many people who are filthy rich, but have nobody to genuinely love them. Unconditional love is priceless. If you have someone who really loves you for your heart, without any conditions, then you are truly one of the wealthiest people in the world.
Suzy Kassem
#69. Satan, really, is the romantic youth of Jesus re-appearing for a moment.

Rebecca Romijn
#73. Romance: That's one of the things that makes Spider-Man really unique, in terms of the comic books. There is a tender, romantic quality to it. And certainly, that's something that's always fascinated me about the cinema: good romance.

#77. I'm a complete romantic - it's why I always get married. Someone should really stop me.
Pamela Anderson
#78. I've heard stories about movies that are really maybe difficult and really dramatic and good, but they are being sold as romantic comedies. All it's going to do is just ... that's hurting the work, because that just makes it impossible for anyone to see it correctly.
Shane Carruth
#79. It's been such a deep and amazing journey for me, getting close to John Keats, and also I love Shelley and Byron. I mean, the thing about the Romantic poets is that they've got the epitaph of romantic posthumously. They all died really young, and Keats, the youngest of them all.
Jane Campion

He glanced at her. "That honest enough for you?
Suzanne Brockmann
#86. I do also think it eludes genre a bit - not in any groundbreaking way but you can't quite call it a comedy and you can't quite call it a romantic anything. It's not quite a drama either really. But it has elements of all those things.
Colin Firth
#87. Did you mean what you said before? About the dead hanging around? You really believe it?
Jennifer Walkup
