About this Quote

This quote by Nora Roberts is a commentary on the unrealistic expectations that are typically put on men and women in fiction. Roberts is recommending that the characters we see in romance books, or any other type of fiction, are frequently depicted as transcending to genuine men and women. This can develop an impractical standard for people to measure up to, as it is impossible to be best. Roberts is likely suggesting that we ought to appreciate the real people in our lives for who they are, rather than comparing them to the idealized characters we see in fiction. It is essential to remember that real people are flawed and that is what makes them special and special.
