Deek Quotes
Quote #1
Caught in the guaranteed unbreakable glass, the gale force winds yanked the security door open. The screen’s hydraulic failed, disintegrated into a cloud of metal and rivets, and allowed the handle to smash through the bungalow’s siding. It hurled the dandy of a man, his cry becoming the primary soloist in the choir of winds, while he sailed over front yard as graceful as a flying manatee.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #2
Though he bore no external scars on his wrists, ankles, or hands—the dog had never once touched him—Norman could have used a baggage cart to tote the emotional traveler’s trunks he lugged around with him.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #3
In the brush, not five feet away, two red orbs from the pit of Hell glowed and simmered. Lucifer himself pulled the strings of this evil puppet, coaxing Norman with blazing fingers to follow it to the dark fires of ember and soot.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #4
Silence crowded around him. Suffocating and stifling. No cars trundled up the street. No birds sang. No crickets chirped. He stood alone in the universe, and all creatures held their collective breaths in anticipation of the upcoming showdown.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #5
It looked down on him like a stone gargoyle from an ancient Transylvanian cathedral.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #6
Saundy watched as the Blue Man left her field of vision. He was her bitch now. The true and rightful hierarchy has been established, with her squarely at the top.
-Norman and the Demon
Quote #7
Nothing short of jumping up on the Elfin’s desk, wrapping her hands around the woman’s scrawny little neck, and squeezing until her itty bitty eyes popped like champagne corks could have adequately expressed Lindsey’s disapproval of the Elfin’s foreign policy opinions.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #8
Why do the stupid seem to be so drawn to me? Do I have "dolt magnet" written on my forehead or something?
-Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #9
The menacing, unrelenting olfactory phantom assaulted her anew as soon as she climbed into the driver’s seat, feeding the flames of her fury with roiling, boiling kerosene.
-Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #10
He wrapped the towel around his waist. “You must be Mrs. Newman.”
“And you must be… Ummmm…”
“Emigdio, but every calls me Dios. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Newman.” His silky smooth voice and spicy accent drizzled like melted pepper butter across her synapses.
In the distance, she heard herself mutter, “Lindsey, please. Mrs. Newman is Mic’s grandmother.”
-Dios and Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #11
“Did you run over Cindie’s Vespa?”
Lindsey smirked and fluttered her eyelashes. “Oh, was that her little scoot scoot? I thought I felt a bump. I came by your work to show you our new car, but then I changed my mind and thought I’d surprise you tonight instead. I know how much you like surprises, Stewie.” She cupped her chin and tapped her teeth. “Hmmm, might have accidentally nudged the Elfin’s trike when I was in the parking lot.”
-Stewart and Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #12
Lindsey didn't want to try and go back to when they'd felt something besides distance and animosity. She'd given up her live-free, party-hard identity and adopted a June Cleaver set of morals and ethics that fit the regimented life of kids, work, and domestic divaship.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #13
With the house secure, the old party girl raged inside the domestic goddess, lusting to take control. Lindsey let it. Asleep for decades, the untamed animal roared with a victory cry so fierce it could have been leading a thousand men on horseback into battle.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #14
Just below the surface, a raw sexual tension emanated through his fingers, in the heat of his breath, and the aroma of his body, steaming through her in a delicious torrent of carnality.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #15
I know what I want, and I'm not afraid to go after it.
-Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #16
She had several bite marks in various places on her body and, in return, she’d given him more than a few bruises. But over the last couple of weeks, Lindsey’s student had made remarkable progress.
-Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #17
She mentally patted herself on the back for taking a handsy, blundering caveman and turning him into a sexual virtuoso.
-Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #18
As the tension coiled inside her belly and her body began to quake, she flew out of her seat. Startled by the sudden movement, Stewart shot hemp milk out of his nose, and across the table. Fat white drops coated Mic’s plate and rolled down the side of his glass. A stream of cream-colored snot dribbled from Stewart’s nostrils to the front of his shirt and splattered on his tie.
-Lindsey, Dios, Stewart, and the kids at dinner, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #19
Party Girl Lindsey raised a glass of vodka to Domesticated Lindsey. The incarcerated housewife had managed to seduce a much younger man and pull the wool over her pansy husband’s eyes. Stewie could have his Congo music, goat-cheese soap, and titless mistress while the party girl sweated and moaned in their bed under the talented hands of her Peruvian protégé.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #20
Lindsey smiled at her success. “So will you take care of it?”
“Seems like a waste of time and effort, but really I’m glad you’re doing this. It’s about time you did something with your life. I don’t want you sitting around all day watching television anymore. It sets a bad example for the kids. And, to be honest, Cindie and I have been worried that all the recreational eating you’ve been doing will start catching up to you. She even has a couple of holistic weight loss books she wanted me to pass on to you. In spite of what you did to her Vespa, she only wants the best for you.”
If Lindsey could have reached through the phone and punched him, she would have given him two black eyes and a bloody nose. Dead. He just asked me to kill him. Put poison in his wine, a cobra in his briefcase, a bomb in his boxers. And I’m more than happy to oblige. I’ll put both him and his slut girlfriend into the deepest darkest hole in North America.
-Lindsey and Stewart, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #21
He longed to show the little priss just how not-gay he was by posting a video on the internet of him and Lindsey screwing in the accountant’s own bed. Dios grinned at the image of the man’s face turning red with shame, knowing he’d never be able to compete with someone so sexy and well-hung.
-Dios angry at Stewart, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #22
He glanced up and smiled. “Fruit is very tendar and needs to be handled as such.”
Her girl thermostat climbed as his smooth, melodious accent washed over her. If he continued to talk to her, she might just melt into her boots and puddle all over the floor as though her body had been made of chocolate and left out in the sun.
-Angel and Dios, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #23
She fidgeted with her slinky short dress, which rose with every step. Maybe she’d crossed the subtle line between provocative and desperate. At home, her outfit had screamed “come get me big boy,” but now it flashed like a red light on Whore St. She considered turning around and running back to her apartment where she’d shed the “two dollar hooker” garment and opt for jeans and a simple t-shirt instead. Though the tight denim would show off her I-never-quite-fully-developed-boobies and curves figure...
-Angel, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #24
Her mental conductor tapped his wand on the music stand, raised it up, and the choir of cherubs once again began singing the “Hallelujah Chorus” while a ray of pure light shone down around her deity on Earth.
-Angel arriving at Dios' apartment, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #25
After he clinked his glass with hers, she took a sip. She’d only ever had on-sale booze in a box, so the velvety richness of the elixir danced and pirouetted across her tongue and took her breath away. Zeus in a Cup. That’s what I’ve got. This beautiful, intoxicating man, liquefied himself and poured me a glass.
-Dios and Angel, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #26
A light chuckle echoed through the earpiece. “It was just a matter of time before you got yourself in trouble. It’s almost two AM, so let me guess. You’ve got a girl there, and she’s just decided that you’re boyfriend material and won’t leave you alone.”
He sucked in a sharp breath as his mind raced. Could she be spying on me? It seemed unlikely, stuff from movies, but still. “How did you know?”
“Because, you idiot, we never got to that part of your training. I told you when you decided to go out on your own that you couldn’t do it without me. And here you are calling me in the middle of the night.”
He shook his head, trying to follow her. No matter how hard he tried, Lindsey always seemed to be several steps ahead of him.
-Dios' desperate call to Lindsey, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #27
“Since you are from America, Papa will forgo the usual expectation that your family will give him cows and sheep as a dowry. Unless your momma wants to. Do you think she’d want to honor our customs? If she moved with us, it would be expected of her.” He looked off as in deep thought. “It might be easier for her to buy livestock in Peru instead of having them shipped over.”
-Dios proposes to Angel, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #28
He sat back, triumphant. “I know what you’ve been up to, Lindsey. The game is over, and you’re going to jail. You’re a madam. I’ve seen the pictures, and I think they’re disgusting. The sex you’re trafficking is men, not women, but you’re still a pimp. I’m going to be contacting the sheriff, and he’ll haul you off to prison. I’ll divorce your ass and because you’re a felon, you won’t get a dime. You’ll get a court-appointed lawyer and twenty years.” The gleam in his eyes and the jack-o-lantern smile belied his belief in his complete and utter victory. In his pathetic, puny little mind, nothing could take him down. Nothing could stop him.
She shook her head again. This would be his last moment of triumph before she crushed him like a scooter under her SUV’s wheels.
-Stewart and Lindsey: The final showdown, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #29
She’d sooner put him in the ground and spend the rest of her life in jail than beg for mercy. Lindsey let him press a few numbers before stopping him. “You may want to look at the other folder in your briefcase before you make that call.”
His thumb stopped in midair, and the smile melted, just a little, from his lips. “Huh? What file?”
She and the party animal leaned forward. “The one at the very bottom, underneath all the other crap you haul around.” The beast within her licked its chops in anticipation.
-Stewart and Lindsey: The final showdown, Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #30
When Lindsey smiled, she could practically feel the devil horns knocking her halo aside.
-Birth of an American Gigolo
Quote #31
I raise my glass to the end of that pathetic excuse of a relationship and the future ruination of a bastard and a prick. May he always stay wretched.
-Savannah, Birth of an American Gigolo
