"Alice and Jasper aren't into show, but they have the deeper relationship. They are married, but once was enough for them."
"Secondly, he's really mostly doing this for Alice. Alice is Jasper's entire life. She is the most important thing in the universe to him, and he would do absolutely anything for her. For Jasper, there would be no limit to who or what he would destroy for Alice. Not that she wants him destroying anything. She's the light side of their relationship–she makes him laugh (and he wasn't much of a laugher before Alice). Jasper is the most "vampire-y" of the Cullens, and, while he's fond of them all, he's not bonded to them the way the rest of them are. The way Alice most definitely is. The whole high school thing really freaks him out. He's trying to get better at being around humans, but it's an uphill struggle."
"And then Alice and Jasper's is the most…mystical. They just ARE together, and have been from before they even met. They are not complete without each other–and never were. That's what makes them different from the other couples, the "never were." They were already not-whole before they met, waiting for each other."
"There isn't a house big enough in the world to hold all the clothes Alice has accumulated. She only keeps the special ones--her wedding dress, the dress she was wearing the day Jasper finally found her, etc..."

Cool quotes! I found a few-
"When i was writing the novel i saw the whole thing in my head as a movie. I really wanted to see it bought to life"
"I never considered writing at all because it's too scary. You let people see what you're thinking in kind of an unprotected form and that seems like a really big vulnerability to me. But apparently I'm supposed to be a writer, and if you have a talent that's been given to you, you're not always allowed to ignore it."
"Every day I'm waiting for someone to pull the rug out from under me and say, 'Oh, that was just a clerical mistake.' If it stopped tomorrow and no one ever read another one of my books and it was just done, I would be fine with that because it's always been more than I expected. And if I never work with a publisher again, I still get to write. I still get to do it for myself, and that's the thing that would hurt to take away, that option of getting to write my stories."
Talking about the dream, that led on to the twilight books being written.. “It's absolutely true and sounds so cheesy. I was really embarrassed about telling it at first. My publicist said, ‘It's a good story'. I'm like, ‘It sounds silly: no one is going to believe it'.” ...I already knew he was a vampire and he was sparkly and beautiful and she was just kind of ordinary and in awe of this creature. He was explaining how hard it was not to kill her and she was amazed that he wanted to be around her even if it was risking her life. When i woke up i wondered- Where would it go next? Would he kill her or would they work it out? I just thought about it until I had to make breakfast.”
