It’s his own fault if he doesn’t like the things I remember, though. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 3, p.82

The fortune-telling bloodsucker can’t see us? Seriously? That’s excellent! Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.104

They shouldn’t exist. Their existence goes against nature. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.111

Normal humans run away from monsters, Bella. And I never claimed to be normal. Just human. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.112

Did you seriously just stamp your foot? I thought girls only did that on TV. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.119
So, did you want to hear about Sam, or did you want to scream at me some more for things that are out of my control? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.121
There are no rules that can bind you when you find your other half. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.123
It’s awful. No privacy, no secrets. Everything you’re ashamed of, laid out for everyone to see. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.125
Not bad for a prison break, eh? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.170
I forget what it’s like, not having everyone know everything all the time. Having a quiet, private place inside my head. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.174
It’s not like love at first sight, really. It’s more like… gravity moves. When you see her, suddenly it’s not the earth holding you here anymore. She does. And nothing matters more than her. And you would do anything for her, be anything for her… You become whatever she needs you to be, whether that’s a protector, or a lover, or a friend, or a brother. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.176
But I’ll never see anyone else, Bella. I only see you. Even when I close my eyes and try to see something else. Ask Quil or Embry. It drives them all crazy. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.177
All the splendor of the Taj Mahal, without the inconvenience and expense of traveling to India. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.179

What’s it like — having a werewolf for a best friend? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 10, p.222

I figured if I played nice, I’d get more time with you. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 11, p.261
Hey, it’s the least I can do — I offered eternal servitude, remember. I’m your slave for life. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.321
I’m in love with you, Bella. Bella, I love you. And I want you to pick me instead of him. I know you don’t feel that way, but I need the truth out there so that you know your options. I wouldn’t want a miscommunication to stand in our way. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.327
You can have me the way I am — bad behavior included — or not at all. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.329

Until your heart stops beating, Bella. I’ll be here — fighting. Don’t forget that you have options. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.330

Could I please have just a few seconds of your undivided attention, Miss Swan? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.373
I really am sorry. About the other day, I mean, too. I shouldn’t have kissed you like that. It was wrong. I guess… well, I guess I deluded myself into thinking you wanted me to. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.373
Well, I figured that maybe it would make you remember me once in a while. You know how it is, out of sight, out of mind. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.375
Don’t lie to me, you suck at lying. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.375
Bunch of vampires trying to kill you. The usual. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.474
I thought you were supposed to be the forgiving one, and I was the grudge-holder. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.475
Either you’re lying, or you are the stubbornest person alive. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.476
Does that mean that he’s a better kisser that I am? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.476
According to you, you’ve kissed just one person — who isn’t even really a person — in your whole life, and you’re calling it quits? How do you know that’s what you want? Shouldn’t you play the field a little? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.477
You could kiss me, for example. I don’t mind if you want to use me to experiment. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.477
Sometimes I think you like me better as a wolf. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.478

I make you nervous. But only when I’m human. When I’m a wolf, you’re more comfortable around me. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.478

Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.481
I’m not saying you don’t love him. I’m not stupid. But it’s possible to love more than one person at a time, Bella. I’ve seen it in action. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.481
It’s really not so bad. Exciting sometimes, like with this thing tomorrow. But at first it sort of felt like being drafted into a war you didn’t know existed. There was no choice, you know? And it was so final. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.484
Go fetch a space heater. I’m not a St. Bernard. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 22, p.489
I’m sure she’ll thank you for this when her toes turn black and drop off. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 22, p.490

Don’t worry about me, Bells. I’ll be fine, just like I always am. ’Sides, you think I’m going to let Seth go in my place — have all the fun and steal all the glory? Right. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 23, p.510
That should have been our first kiss. Better late than never. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 23, p.530
Dr. Fang isn’t sure how much pain medication I need, so he’s going with trial and error. Think he overdid it. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.592
I was sort of counting on his reaction. Damn it all. He’s better than I thought. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.593
He’s playing every bit as hard as I am, only he knows what he’s doing and I don’t. Don’t blame me because he’s a better manipulator than I am — I haven’t been around long enough to learn all his tricks. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.594
Don’t you think you ought to know how you feel — just so that it doesn’t take you by surprise someday when it’s too late and you’re a married vampire? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.594
Do I get points for making you cry? Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.597
I’m exactly right for you, Bella. It would have been effortless for us — comfortable, easy as breathing. I was the natural path your life would have taken… If the world was the way it was supposed to be, if there were no monsters and no magic… Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.599
He’s like a drug for you, Bella. I see that you can’t live without him now. It’s too late. But I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.599
The clouds I can handle. But I can’t fight with an eclipse. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.600
I’ll always be waiting in the wings, Bella. You’ll always have that spare option if you want it. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Chapter 26, p.602
I’d hate to shatter the dream world you live in — the one where the sun is orbiting the place where you stand — so I won’t tell you how little I care what your problem is. Go. Away. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Epilogue, p.622
If the silence in my head lasted, I would never go back. I wouldn’t be the first one to choose this form over the other. Maybe, if I ran far enough away, I would never have to hear again… I pushed my legs faster, letting Jacob Black disappear behind me. Jacob Black, Eclipse, Epilogue, p.629
