No one asks you to throw Mozart out of the window. Keep Mozart. Cherish him. Keep Moses too, and Buddha and Lao Tzu and Christ. Keep them in your heart. But make room for the others, the coming ones, the ones who are already scratching on the window-panes. Henry Miller
Then the anguish increased to unendurable massivity and nightmare dimensions, making her scream and vomit. She wanted...to have her dark curls shaved to an aquamarine prickle, because they grew into her porous skull and curled inside. Jigsaw pieces of sky or wall came apart, no matter how delicately put together, but a careless jolt or a nurse's elbow can disturb so easily those lightweight fragments which became incomprehensible blancs of anonymous objects, or the blank backs of 'Scrabble'... Vladimir Nabokov
It would be best if this obscure chapter in the history of the world were terminated at once, if these ugly people were obliterated from the face of the earth and we swore to make a new start, to run an empire in which there would be no more injustice, no more pain. J. M. Coetzee

Aravis also had many quarrels (and, I'm afraid even fights) with Cor, but they always made it up again: so that years later, when they were grown up they were so used to quarreling and making it up again that they got married so as to go on doing it more conveniently. C. S. Lewis
Thrice-honoured Lady, make not of you spoon your meat, for silver/(How much less, tin or wood?) contains no nourishment./I will be all things, any thing, to you, save only that. C. S. Lewis
There are really only three types of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who say, What happened? Ann Landers
Just thinking about a friend makes you want to do a happy dance, because a friend is someone who loves you in spite of your faults. Charles M. Schulz
It is the responsibility of every adult... to make sure that children hear what we have learned from the lessons of life and to hear over and over that we love them and that they are not alone. Marian Wright Edelman
F. Scott Fitzgerald quote: "It makes me sad because I've never seen such--such beautiful..."
It makes me sad because I've never seen such--such beautiful shirts before. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Women should be respected as well! Generally speaking, men are held in great esteem in all parts of the world, so why shouldn't women have their share? Soldiers and war heroes are honored and commemorated, explorers are granted immortal fame, martyrs are revered, but how many people look upon women too as soldiers?...Women, who struggle and suffer pain to ensure the continuation of the human race, make much tougher and more courageous soldiers than all those big-mouthed freedom-fighting... Anne Frank
Let us again pretend that life is a solid substance, shaped like a globe, which we turn about in our fingers. Let us pretend that we can make out a plain and logical story, so that when one matter is despatched—love for instance—we go on, in an orderly manner, to the next. Virginia Woolf
Ken Kesey quote: "What makes people so impatient is what I can't figure; all the..."
What makes people so impatient is what I can't figure; all the guy had to do was wait. Ken Kesey
Oh Daddy, can’t you give her something to make her stop screaming?" asked Nick. "No. I haven’t any anesthetic," his father said. "But her screams are not important. I don’t hear them because they are not important." -Indian Camp- Ernest Hemingway
