The love story between the hero and the heroine has to be at the center of the book. I think that's pretty true in my books. I usually write a secondary love story, with maybe nontraditional characters. Sometimes I write older characters. I'm interested in female friendships, and family relationships. So I don't write the traditional romance, where you just have the hero and the heroine's love story. I like intertwining relationships.

I'm not against accents - my husband's from Lancashire and has a rural Lancs accent. We've just got back from Scotland yesterday, and I love that Highland burr.

Penelope Keith

I love that Moana is a heroine, and I hope people take that away, and that you most certainly can be the heroine, or hero, of your own story.

I was brought home to a trailer in Highland, MI.

Dax Shepard

I like a highland friend who will stand by me not only when I am in the right, but when I am a little in the wrong.

Walter Scott

In the '80s, there was a fixed costume of a heroine, and not the physical costume, but this is what a heroine is, she is an art prop. She will look beautiful, support the hero, dance, get saved by hero. I didn't ever aim to go there.

True love, like any other strong and addicting drug, is boring — once the tale of encounter and discovery is told, kisses quickly grow stale and caresses tiresome… except, of course, to those who share the kisses, who give and take the caresses while every sound and color of the world seems to deepen and brighten around them. As with any other strong drug, true first love is really only interesting to those who have become its prisoners. And, as is true of any other strong and addicting drug, true first love is dangerous.

Stephen King

Highland has changed my entire way of working with scripts. I use it every day.

David Wain

My primary and secondary education was provided by the Highland Park Public School System.

James Cronin

When you're outside, and everything is highland, it's like nature has its own sound, and that's one of my favorite sounds.

Aurora Aksnes

Growing up in Highland Park, in high school, I had some very influential teachers: I had a math teacher who taught calculus that helped me learn to be in love with mathematics; I had a chemistry teacher who inspired us to work what was in the class and to go beyond.

John M. Grunsfeld

I'd love to do something like 'A Canterbury Tale,' because I love the English language.

Martin McDonagh

No heroine can create a hero through love of one, but she can give birth to one

Jean Paul

I thought I could make out Jamie's Highland screech, but that was likely imagination; they all sounded equally demented.

Diana Gabaldon

I still love poetic imagery. I love the idea of using surrealist speak to generate lyrical content and I love the way English can be exciting in and of itself.
