[dayscrazed]

“…the lusting I suppose you’d call it…that was…too close to what I feel sometimes for you, and it…well, it doesna seem right to me. I always thought it would be a simple matter to lie with a woman. And yet…I want to fall on my face at your feet and worship you- and still I want to force ye to your knees before me, and hold ye there wi’ my hands tangled in your hair and your mouth at my service…and I want both things at the same time, Sassenach. …I want to hold you like a kitten in my shirt, mo nighean donn, and I still want to spread your thighs and plow you like a rutting bull. I dinna understand myself!”

- Jamie to Claire, Dragonfly in Amber p. 310-311

I've collected a certain amount of quotes from the books and the show and every week I'll post another quote for you to answer. Let's see who knows outlander better. 😁😉 I'll start you off with an easy one, but they may get more difficult as we go along. Just to make it more challenging and interesting. 1. “There's a difference between understandin' something with your mind and really knowing it, deep down.”

"Does it ever stop? The wanting you?" 🔥💔

From stolen glances on the battlefield to quiet moments by the hearth, theirs is a story that reminds us love isn’t perfect—it’s just unstoppable.

Jamie: Impatience is your middle name, Sassenach. Claire: Virtue was already taken.

Jamie had come to stand beside me at the window. Staring absently out at the driving rain, he said, "There was another reason. The main one."

"Reason?" I said stupidly.

"Why I married you."

"Which was?" I don't know what I expected him to say, perhaps some further revelation of his family's contorted affairs. What he did say was more of a shock, in its way.

"Because I wanted you." He turned from the window to face me. "More than I ever wanted anything in my life," he added softly.

I continued staring at him, dumbstruck. Whatever I had been expecting, it wasn't this. Seeing my openmouthed expression, he continued lightly. "When I asked my Da how ye knew which was the right woman, he told me when the time came, I'd have no doubt. And I didn't. When I woke in the dark under that tree on the road to Leoch, with you sitting on my chest, cursing me for bleeding to death, I said to myself, 'Jamie Fraser, for all ye canna see what she looks like, and for all she weighs as much as a good draft horse, this is the woman.' "

“I have lived through war and lost much. I know what's worth the fight and what is not. Honor and courage are matters of the bone. And what a man will kill for, he'll sometimes die for, too. A man's life springs from a woman's bones, and in her life is his honor Christened. For the sake of love alone would I walk through fire again.”

“It starts out the same, but then, after a moment,” he said, speaking softly, “suddenly it’s as though I’ve a living flame in my arms.” His touch grew firmer, outlining my lips and caressing the line of my jaw. “And I want only to throw myself into it and be consumed.”

Outlander, Chapter 17
