Linda Evans Quotes

Romantic love is an illusion. Most of us discover this truth at the end of a love affair or else when the sweet emotions of love lead us into marriage and then turn down their flames.

There's something about wedding dresses that turn you into Cinderella a little.

I've been waiting for Prince Charming like every other little girl.

Cinderella is not only an iconic character when it comes to beauty, grace and fairytale love, but also shoes.

We all have to let go of the Prince Charming complex and realize he doesn't necessarily exist in the package we assume he'll come in.

I am 39. I am single. I am a black woman. I have too many advanced degrees. Many a news story tells me finding true love is likely a hopeless proposition. Now is the time when I need to believe in fairy tales.

The more I know of the world, the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love.

False expectations take away joy.

I have never dreamed of being a princess. I have not longed for Prince Charming. I have and do long for something resembling a happily ever after. I am supposed to be above such flights of fantasy, but I am not. I am enamored of fairy tales.

Like everybody, I too believed that couples lived happily ever after. But it only happens in books.

When I find the right person, nothing else will matter, but I'm prepared to kiss a lot of frogs.

My life has been nothing short of a fairy tale.

Why does it have to be so hard? Why can't it be a happily-ever-after ride-into-the-sunset feeling all the time?

And I kissed a lot of frogs as well, but no, I kissed a lot of frogs and now I've found my prince.

Unimaginative people are spared quite a lot. They're often much happier, because they don't go through all the variety of conceptions of the person they love.

Oh God, to think that you only fall in love once in your entire life is such a depressing thought.

There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.

Love is not blind. Romance is. Romance is the most dangerous thing. Romance is like an illusion. It shows you things, and you hear things that don't exist.

I got interested in reading very early, because a story was read to me, by Hans Christian Andersen, which was 'The Little Mermaid,' and I don't know if you remember 'The Little Mermaid,' but it's dreadfully sad. The little mermaid falls in love with this prince, but she cannot marry him because she is a mermaid.

When I was a kid, I really loved watching 'Cinderella.' It's a fantasy, and every girl knows that real life isn't always like these movies, but as a child, I just really loved the story of 'Cinderella.' I found it to be so romantic and just a beautiful movie to watch.

I'm so fortunate to be marrying the man of my dreams. I knew that I was completely in love with him and he's the love of my life, but who knew what the future held? Then he swept me off my feet and asked me to marry him.

Back when I was single and Guns were on the 'Illusions' tour, chicks were, like, left and right. They were falling over themselves. And I saw the sadness in that. The first six months of that, it's like, 'Killer! Chicks are hot. They're into me.' And then you realize they're not really into you. They're into the guy they saw on the JumboTron.

I don't believe in 'happy ever after' at all as a concept.

I'm a patient person. I can wait for my prince charming.

I've got a lot of silvers. Second seems to be something I end up being. I don't want to be the bridesmaid forever.
