You think I'm cute?" He said thinkly, pulling on her hand. She was glad he couldn't see her face. "I think you're..." Beautiful. Breathtaking. Like the person in a Greek myth who makes one of the gods stop caring about being a god.

About This Quote

This quote is an example of an icebreaker, used to get to know someone at a social gathering. The speaker needs some kind of opener, and this is one of the most common. It’s also one of the most dangerous. If you haven’t already made it clear that you’re into her, then don’t risk it by saying something like this. But if you are interested in her, this will let her know that you’re willing to be more than friends with no strings attached.
