Love this quote when the Argeneau boys all go to find their mum without their life mates, and Margurite questions them about how unhappy they will be about it. Vincent says, "She'll have a fit, throw a tantrum, i'll grovel a bit, and we'll have make-up sex". Now ain't that just typical blokes, although it often works in our favour eh girls when they wanna get back in good books LOL! ↗

Um suggests someone interrupted before they'd begun. Um is a fifteen-year-old girl who gets hit by a taxicab in front of a mall on the way to help pick out a prom dress for a prom she isn't even going to, for God's sake. ↗

Americans different in some maybe thoughts or emphasis still have the same ideas. They want a government that lets them be free, that leaves them alone, that doesn't interrupt and interfere with every aspect of their life, that lets them go to work and keep more of what they've worked hard to have. ↗
