'' He's a man who knows how to take what he wants. ''

''You know what he said to me when he proposed? 

I remember his exact words. 

He said, Claire , if all you want is happiness, say no. 

I'm not gonna give you a couple of kids and count the days until retirement. 

I promise you freedom from that. 

I promise you'll never be bored.

You know, he was the only man 

- and there were a lot of others who proposed - 

but he was the only one who understood me. 

He didn't put me on some pedestal.

 He knew that I didn't want to be adored or coddled.

 So he took my hand and put a ring on it.

 Because he knew I'd say yes.

He's a man who knows how to take what he wants.''
