OMG, I'm so blond haha. I was reading these and count figure out any of them when they were in the books, but I thought that because it's english, I was translating it bad. But I just noticed those qoutes are from Eclipse, I thought they were of New Moon. I'm so dumb!! haha

Haha, it happens I think almost too often for me, that is why Matt calls them "Megan Moments" and they are apparently worse than blond moments! Haha!

"She was there - expecting me, naturally." He chuckled once. "She hopped down from the high stool at the counter as soon as I walked in and came directly toward me. It shocked me. I was not sure if she meant to attack. That's the only interpretation of her behavior my past had to offer. But she was smiling. And the emotions that were emanating from her were like nothing I'd ever felt before. 'You've kept me waiting a long time,' she said. (Jasper - p. 301)
"And you ducked your head, like a good Southern gentleman, and said 'I'm sorry, ma'am.'" Alice laughed at the memory. (Alice - p.301)
Jasper smiled down at her. "You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope." (Jasper - p. 301)
Alice grinned. "I was just relieved. I thought you were never going to show up." (Alice - p. 302)

Quotes from the Preface, Chapters One and Two:
Black eyes, wild with their fierce craving for my death, watched for the moment when my protector’s attention would be diverted. The moment when I would surely die. -Bella Swan
I could imagine the frustration pulling his black eyebrows together and crumpling his forehead. If I’d been there, I might have laughed. Don’t give yourself a brain hemorrhage, Jacob, I would have told him. Just spit it out. -Bella Swan
The word boyfriend had me chewing on the inside of my cheek with a familiar tension while I stirred. It wasn’t the right word, not at all. I needed something more expressive of eternal commitment… But words like destiny and fate sounded hokey when you used them in casual conversation. -Bella Swan,
There’s no law that says I can’t cook in my own house. -Charlie Swan
My dad was not a man of many words, and the effort he had put into trying to orchestrate a sit-down dinner with me made it clear there were an uncharacteristic number of words on his mind. -Bella Swan
It worked — your cooking skills have me soft as a marshmallow. -Bella Swan
So I’m thinking maybe you deserve a parole for good behavior. For a teenager, you’re amazingly non-whiney. -Charlie Swan
Bella, this is more of a request than a demand, okay? You’re free. But I’m hoping you’ll use that freedom… judiciously. -Charlie Swan
It was against the rules for normal people — human people like me and Charlie — to know about the clandestine world full of myths and monsters that existed secretly around us. I knew all about that world — and I was in no small amount of trouble as a result. -Bella Swan
With Jacob there is a… conflict. A conflict about the friendship thing, I mean. Friendship doesn’t always seem to be enough for Jake. -Bella Swan
Isn’t Edward up for a little healthy competition? -Charlie Swan
You and Billy gossip like old women. -Bella Swan
I’m shocked, Sheriff. That’s a federal crime. -Bella Swan
I wrenched the door out of my way — ridiculously eager — and there he was, my personal miracle. -Bella Swan
Staring into his eyes always made me feel extraordinary — sort of like my bones were turning spongy. I was also a little lightheaded, but that could have been because I’d forgotten to keep breathing. Again. -Bella Swan
His touch brought with it the strangest sense of relief — as if I’d been in pain and that pain had suddenly ceased. -Bella Swan
The idea of being in danger from even the most deadly of humans while I was with Alice or Edward was downright hilarious. -Bella Swan
I’ll let you pay me back, if that makes you happy. If you want, I can charge you interest. -Edward Cullen
There’s no hurry. I won’t let anyone hurt you. You can take all the time you need. -Edward Cullen
I want to be a monster, too. -Bella Swan Monsters are not a joke, Bella. -Edward Cullen
You know it’s out of the question for you to be around a werewolf unprotected, Bella. And it would break the treaty if any of us cross over onto their land. Do you want us to start a war? -Edward Cullen,
I think it’s something about the inevitability. How nothing can keep them apart — not her selfishness, or his evil, or even death, in the end… -Bella Swan
It’s a bit late for me to worry about who I fall in love with. But even without the warning, I seem to have managed fairly well. -Bella Swan
If we could bottle your luck, we’d have a weapon of mass destruction on our hands. -Edward Cullen,
My bad luck had nothing to do with it. The werewolves came back because the vampires did. -Bella Swan
I knew I must be patient with Edward. It wasn’t that he was unreasonable, it was just that he didn’t understand. He had no idea how very much I owed Jacob Black — my life many times over, and possibly my sanity, too. -Bella Swan
If Jacob hadn’t helped me… I’m not sure what you would have come home to. I owe him better than this, Edward. -Bella Swan
I’ll never forgive myself for leaving you. Not if I live a hundred thousand years. -Edward Cullen,
If I’d never left, you wouldn’t feel the need to go risk your life to comfort a dog. -Edward Cullen,
I don’t know how to phrase this properly. It’s going to sound cruel, I suppose. But I’ve come too close to losing you in the past. I know what it feels like to think I have. I am not going to tolerate anything dangerous. -Edward Cullen
Please make a conscious effort to keep yourself safe. I’ll do everything I can, but I would appreciate a little help. -Edward Cullen
Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you? -Edward Cullen
Alice was scrutinizing my boring jeans-and-a-t-shirt outfit in a way that made me self-conscious. Probably plotting another makeover. I sighed. My indifferent attitude to fashion was a constant thorn in her side. If I’d allow it, she’d love to dress me every day — perhaps several times a day — like some oversized three-dimensional paper doll. -Bella Swan
I’m sure I still have boundaries — like the continental U.S., for example. -Bella Swan
You’re really not that good a mechanic, Edward. Maybe you should have Rosalie take a look at it tonight, just so you look good if Mike decides to let you help, you know. Not that it wouldn’t be fun to watch his face if Rosalie showed up to help. -Bella Swan
If I had my way, I would spend the majority of my time kissing Edward. -Bella Swan
I knew I had about three seconds before he would sigh and slide me deftly away, saying something about how we’d risked my life enough for one afternoon. -Bella Swan
He pulled my face away from his, breaking my hold with ease — he probably didn’t even realize that I was using all my strength. -Bella Swan
I’d say I’m sorry, but I’m not. -Bella Swan
You know how I am with tools. No pain was inflicted intentionally. -Bella Swan
You aren’t the only one who’s been trapped in this house, you know. -Edward Cullen
The outside world holds no interest for me without you. -Edward Cullen
I’ll do my time without complaining when I’ve done something wrong, Dad, but I’m not going to put up with your prejudices. -Bella Swan
You’re a rotten liar, Dad. -Bella Swan
It’s not like I’m headed off to Vegas to be a showgirl or anything. I’m going to see Mom. -Bella Swan
Interceded? You threw me to the sharks! -Bella Swan
Edward and Alice playing chess was one of the funniest things I’d ever seen. They’d sat there nearly motionless, staring at the board, while Alice foresaw the moves he would make and he picked the moves she would make in return out of her head. They played most of the game in their minds; I think they’d each moved two pawns when Alice suddenly flicked her king over and surrendered. It took all of three minutes. -Bella Swan
Please tell me you are not trying to have a sex talk with me, Charlie. -Bella Swan
This was beyond the seventh circle of Hades; even worse was realizing that Edward had known this was coming. No wonder he’d seemed so smug in the car. -Bella Swan
I really wish you were not forcing me to say this out loud, Dad. Really. But… I am a… virgin, and I have no immediate plans to change that status. -Bella Swan Keep trying, Bella. I know you’ll do the right thing. You’re a good person. -Charlie Swan
I wasn’t in the mood to be alone, but I certainly wasn’t going to go back downstairs to hang out with my Dad, just in case he thought of some topic of sex education that he hadn’t touched on before; I shuddered. -Bella Swan
In that instant when they shift from one form to the other, they don’t really even exist. The future can’t hold them… -Edward Cullen
Shut your window if you want me to stay away tonight. I’ll understand. -Edward Cullen

Quotes from Chapter Three:
Renée is so much more… perceptive than Charlie in some ways. It was making me jumpy. -Bella Swan
Your mother has a very interesting mind. Almost childlike, but very insightful. She sees things differently than other people. -Edward Cullen
There’s something… strange about the way you two are together. The way he watches you — it’s so… protective. Like he’s about to throw himself in front of a bullet to save you or something. -Renée Dwyer
He’s very intense about you… and very careful. I feel like I don’t really understand your relationship. Like there’s some secret I’m missing… -Renée Dwyer
The way you move — you orient yourself around him without even thinking about it. When he moves, even a little bit, you adjust your position at the same time. Like magnets… or gravity. You’re like a… satellite, or something. -Renée Dwyer
I really missed you, Bells. The food around here sucks when you’re gone. -Charlie Swan
I knew Jake inside and out. It shouldn’t be that complicated to figure out his motivations. -Bella Swan
I think… I think he was checking. Checking to make sure. That I’m human, I mean. -Bella Swan
If I asked you to do something, would you trust me? -Edward Cullen
I’d forgotten how much this face bothered me. Though I’d gotten to know Sam pretty well before the Cullens had come back — to like him, even — I’d never been able to completely shake the resentment I felt when Jacob mimicked Sam’s expression. It was a stranger’s face. He wasn’t my Jacob when he wore it. -Bella Swan
With a sense of astonishment, I realized that Jacob looked dangerous to them. How odd. -Bella Swan
Sorry. I don’t have any leeches on my speed dial. -Jacob Black
Edward cut him off mid-sentence, and his face was abruptly frightening — truly frightening. For a second, he looked like… like a vampire. -Bella Swan
Better frightened than lied to. -Jacob Black
She’s tougher than you think. And she’s been through worse. -Jacob Black
It’s nothing, Bella. Jacob just has a good memory, that’s all. -Edward Cullen
It’s his own fault if he doesn’t like the things I remember, though. -Jacob Black
I think I might have been wrong before, you know, about not being able to be friends. Maybe we could manage it, on my side of the line. Come see me. -Jacob Black
I miss you every day, Bella. It’s not the same without you. -Jacob Black
I wasn’t about to send you off alone. With your luck, not even the black box would survive. -Edward Cullen
I’d wait till we were close enough to the ground, get a good grip on you, kick out the wall, and jump. Then I’d run you back to the scene of the accident, and we’d stumble around like the two luckiest survivors in history. -Edward Cullen
Did you see the size of that Jacob kid? I think he could take Cullen down. -Mike Newton
There’s something about Edward. He’s always so… confident. I have a feeling he can take care of himself. -Ben Cheney
