She smiled. She knew she was dying. But it did not matter any longer. She had known something which no human words could ever tell and she knew it now. She had been awaiting it and she felt it, as if it had been, as if she had lived it. Life had been, if only because she had known it could be, and she felt it now as a hymn without sound, deep under the little whole that dripped red drops into the snow, deeper than that from which the red drops came. A moment or an eternity- did it matter?... Ayn Rand

At the hotel we had separate rooms, but in the middle of the night she came sobbing into mine, and we made it up very gently. You see, she had absolutely nowhere else to go. Vladimir Nabokov
Robert Louis Stevenson quote: "A hanging in a good quarrel is an easy death they say, though..."
A hanging in a good quarrel is an easy death they say, though I could never hear of any that came back to say so. Robert Louis Stevenson
Daniel was slow to take up the cheer. But when he did, he meant it. This was politics. It was ugly, it was irrational, but it was preferable to war. Roger was being cheered because he had won. What did it mean to win? It meant being cheered. So Daniel huzzahed, as lustily as his dry pipes and creaky ribs would permit, and was astounded to see the way people came a-running: not only the Quality from their town-houses, but hooligans and Vagabonds from bonfire-strewn fields to the north, to... Neal Stephenson
Michael Ondaatje quote: "He came to this country like a torch on fire and he swallowed..."
He came to this country like a torch on fire and he swallowed air as he walked forward and he gave out light Michael Ondaatje
Thomas Pynchon quote: "Despair came over her, as it will when nobody around has any..."
Despair came over her, as it will when nobody around has any sexual relevance to you. Thomas Pynchon

I feared nothing but interruption, and that came too soon. Charlotte Bronte

I had a couple of good friends at school, but never met anyone I could really speak my heart to. We'd just make small talk, play soccer together. When something bothered me, I didn't talk with anyone about it. I thought it over all by myself, came to a conclusion, and took action alone. Not that I really felt lonely. I thought that's just... Haruki Murakami
Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week. Jane Austen
I came to Paris with four cus in my pocket, and I’d have fought with anybody who told me I was in no condition to buy the Louvre. Alexander Dumas
