They didn’t agree on much. In fact, they didn’t agree on anything. They fought all the time and challenged each other ever day. But despite their differences, they had one important thing in common. They were crazy about each other. Nicholas Sparks
Nicholas Sparks quote: "That's the thing about life. A lot of the time it isn't easy..."
That's the thing about life. A lot of the time it isn't easy at all. We just have to try to make the best of it. Nicholas Sparks
George R. R. Martin quote: "You know the best thing about heroes, Jaime? They all die..."
You know the best thing about heroes, Jaime? They all die young and leave more women for the rest of us. George R. R. Martin
He saw an idiot in a yard in a leather harness chained to a clothesline and it leaned and swayed drooling and looked out upon the alley with eyes that fed the most rudimentary brain and yet seemed possessed of news in the universe denied right forms, like perhaps the eyes of squid whose simian depths seem to harbor some horrible intelligence. All down past the hedges a gibbering and howling in a hoarse frog's voice, word perhaps of things known raw, unshaped by the constructions of a mind... Cormac McCarthy

In the vaults of our hearts and brains, danger waits. All the chambers are not lovely, light and high. There are holes in the floor of the mind, like those in a medieval dungeon floor - the stinking oubliettes, named for forgetting, bottle-shaped cells in solid rock with the trapdoor in the top. Nothing escapes from them quietly to ease us. A quake, some betrayal by our safeguards, and sparks of memory fire the noxious gases - things trapped for years fly free, ready to explode in pain and... Thomas Harris
Sylvia Plath quote: "I started adding up all the things I couldn't do. I began with..."
I started adding up all the things I couldn't do. I began with cooking. Sylvia Plath
We talk like we know what’s going on, but we don’t. We don’t know anything. We’re really young and we’re gonna screw up a lot. We’re gonna keep changing our minds and even sometimes our hearts. And through all that, the only real thing we can offer each other is forgiveness. I couldn’t do that. Or at least, I did it too late. Don’t make my mistake. Don’t let yourself be so angry you stop loving. Because one day you’ll wake up from that anger and the person you love will be gone. Kevin Williamson
And so, he knows. He wants, he needs, to do the immoral, irresponsible thing. He wants to let this boy court his own destruction. He wants to commit that cruelty. Or (kinder, gentler version) he doesn't want to reconfirm his allegiance to the realm of the sensible, all the good people who take responsibility, who go to the right and necessary parties, who sell art made of two-by-fours and carpet remnants. He wants, for at least a little while, to live in that other, darker world - Blake's... Michael Cunningham
Barbara Pym quote: "Virtue is an excellent thing and we should all strive after..."
Virtue is an excellent thing and we should all strive after it, but it can sometimes be a little depressing. Barbara Pym

Michael Ondaatje quote: "The important thing is to be able to live in a place or a..."
The important thing is to be able to live in a place or a situation where you must use your sixth sense all the time. Michael Ondaatje
These things are going to eat away at me... I rewrite the script in my head until it's 100-proof poison, and none of it helps at all. Nick Hornby
Daddy's girl. Was it a 'itty-bitty bravekins and did it suffer? Oooooo-tweet, de tweetest thing, wasn't she dest too tweet? Before her tiny fist the forces of lust and corruption rolled away; nay, the very march of destiny stopped; inevitably became inevitable, syllogism, dialectic, all rationality fell away F. Scott Fitzgerald
