I watched the enormity of the clouds for several minutes. What I wanted to experience in the water, I realized, was how life of the reef was layered and intertwined. I now had many individual pieces at hand: named images, nouns. How were they related? What were the verbs? Which syntaxes were indigenous to the place? I asked a dozen knowledgeable people. No one was inclined to elaborate- or they didn’t know. “Did you see the octopus?” Someone shouted after the dive. Yes, I thought, but who... Barry Lopez
I really knew nothing about her, blinded as I was by that burning loveliness which replaces everything else and justifies everything Vladimir Nabokov
It seemed to her that certain parts of the world must produce happiness as they produced peculiar plants which will flourish nowhere else. Gustave Flaubert
Bow or not? Call back or not? Recognize him or not?" our hero wondered in indescribable anguish, "or pretend that I am not myself, but somebody else strikingly like me, and look as though nothing were the matter. Simply not I, not I—and that's all," said Mr. Golyadkin, taking off his hat to Andrey Filippovitch and keeping his eyes fixed upon him. "I'm . . . I'm all right," he whispered with an effort; "I'm . . . quite all right. It's not I, it's not I—and that is the fact of the matter. Fyodor Dostoevsky
Of course, I quiet agree that the Christian religion is, in the long run, a thing of unspeakable discomfort. But it does not begin in comfort; it begins in the dismay and it is no use at all trying to go on to that comfort without first going through that dismay. In religion, as in war and everything else, comfort is one thing you cannot get looking for it. If you look for the truth, you may find comfort in the end: if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth-only soft... C. S. Lewis

To be afraid, a person has either to be very great and strong-- or else a coward. I'm neither. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Margaret Mitchell quote: "Madam, you flatter yourself. I do not want to marry you or..."
Madam, you flatter yourself. I do not want to marry you or anyone else. I am not a marrying man. - Rhett Butler Margaret Mitchell
The only thing more dangerous then a vampire crazed with blood lust was a vampire crazed with anything else. All the meticulous single-mindedness that went into finding young women who slept with their bedroom window open got channeled into some other interest, with merciless and painstaking efficiency... Terry Prachett
In stark contrast to two nights ago, when I felt Peeta was a million miles away, I'm struck by his immediacy now. As we settle in, he pulls my head down to use his arm as a pillow; the other rests protectively over me even when he goes to sleep. No one has held me like this in such a long time. Since my father died and I stopped trusting my mother, no one else's arms have made me feel this safe. Suzanne Collins
When she says, 'How can you ask if I love you? Look at all I've done with you. What else would you call it?' That kind of love-the kind you realize you already have by the life you've created together-that's the kind that lasts. Mitch Albom

A person learns how to love himself through the simple acts of loving and being loved by someone else. Haruki Murakami
Freedom is not a quality of man, nor is it an ability, a capacity, a kind of being that somehow flares up in him. Anyone investigating man to discover freedom finds nothing of it.

In truth, freedom is a relationship between two persons. Being free means "being free for the other," because the other has bound me to... Dietrich Bonhoeffer
George Eliot quote: "scepticism, as we know, can never be thoroughly applied, else..."
