That's certainly a problem. But that's not what I was thinking of. It's just that you are so soft, so fragile. I have to mind my actions every moment that we're together so that I don't hurt you. I could kill you quite easily, Bella, simply by accident." His voice had become just a soft murmur. He moved his icy palm to rest it against my cheek. "If I was too hasty… if for one second I wasn't paying enough attention, I could reach out, meaning to touch your face, and crush your skull by mistake. You don't realize howincredibly breakable you are. I can never, never afford to lose any kind of control when I'm with you. Stephenie Meyer
About This Quote

How can you say that I am fragile, you were the one who just crushed me. You are destroying my very worth, I don't think that I can survive you because if I do then that will be the end of me. You are killing everything inside of me, everything that was good about me is gone and now there is only darkness and pain. But what were you doing? You were rushing at me to try to kill me, but how could you be so careless? Even before I could push you away, your hand had already been raised in a killing strike.

You know very well that I am a vampire and each time we make contact it will only be a matter of time before I die from your hand. It may take many years, but you will kill me eventually.
