The bottom line is that we never fall for the person we're supposed to. Jodi Picoult
He was now beginning to wonder whether the jigsaw was the correct metaphor for relationships between me and women after all. It didn't take account of the sheer stubbornness of human beings, their determination to affix themselves to another even if they didn't fit. They didn't care about jutting off at weird angles, and they didn't care about phone booths and Mary, Queen of Scots. They were motivated not by seamless and sensible matching, but by eyes, mouths, smiles, minds, breasts and... Nick Hornby

At the bottom of all patriotism there is war: that is why I am no patriot. Jules Renard
As there is one Face above all worlds merely to see which is irrevocable joy, so at the bottom of all worlds that face is waiting whose sight alone is the misery from which none who beholds it can recover. C. S. Lewis
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we would expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind pitiless indifference. Charles Darwin
Bob Dylan quote: "You been down to the bottom with a bad man, babe. But you're..."
You been down to the bottom with a bad man, babe. But you're back were you belong Bob Dylan
Beware the dark pool at the bottom of our hearts. In its icy, black depths dwell strange and twisted creatures it is best not to disturb. Sue Grafton
It's like the day you realize dolls are dolls. I pick up my old self and I see it's silly. A toy I've played with too often. It's a little sad, like an old golliwog at the bottom of the cupboard. Innocent and used-up and proud and silly. John Fowles
William Shakespeare quote: "Is there no pity sitting in the clouds that sees into the..."
