Men of honor will do things for their children that they would never consider doing for themselves. George R. R. Martin
And that’s where the whole trouble is,” thought Francie. “We’re too much alike to understand each other because we don’t even understand our own selves. Papa and I were two different persons and we understood each other. Mama understands Neeley because he’s different from her. I wish I was different in the way that Neeley is.” “Then everything’s all right now between us?” Katie asked with a smile. “Of course.” Francie smiled back and kissed her mother’s cheek. But in their secret hearts... Betty Smith

I shoved the whole thing out of my head; and I said I would take up wickedness again, which was in my line, being brung up to it, and the other warn't.

I never rewatch the great films of my favorite directors because I'm afraid they won't hold up. John Waters
Dor came from a time before the written word, a time when if you wished to speak with someone, you walked to see them. This time was different. The tools of this era—phones, computers—enabled people to move at a blurring pace. Yet despite all they accomplished, they were never at peace. They constantly checked their devices to see what time it was— the very thing Dor had tried to determine once with a stick, a stone, and a shadow. Mitch Albom

The first minute of the workday reminds you of all of the other minutes that a day consists of, and it's never a good thing to think of minutes as individuals. Only after other min utes have joined the naked, lonely first minute does the day become saely integrated in the dayness. Jonathan Franzen
Pythagoras quote: "A man is never as big as when he is on his knees to help a child."
A man is never as big as when he is on his knees to help a child. Pythagoras
For my own part, I have never had a thought which I could not set down in words, with even more distinctness than that with which I conceived it. Edgar Allan Poe
Carl Jung called this his shadow work. He said we never see others. Instead we see only aspects of ourselves that fall over them. Shadows. Projections. Our associations. Chuck Palahniuk

A READER lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one. George R. R. Martin
What a grand revenge you have taken! I saw you innocent, and I deceived you. Four years after, you find me a Christian enthusiast; you then work upon me, perhaps to my complete perdition! But Tess, my coz, as I used to call you, this is only my way of talking, and you must not look so horribly concerned. Of course you have done nothing except retain your pretty face and shapely figure. I saw it on the rick before you saw me—that tight pinafore-thing sets it off, and that wing-bonnet—you... Thomas Hardy

The whole set of stylizations that are known as "camp" (a word that I was hearing then for the first time) was, in 1926, self-explanatory. Women moved and gesticulated in this way. Homosexuals wished for obvious reasons to copy them. The strange thing about "camp" is that it has been fossilized. The mannerisms have never changed. If I were now to see a woman sitting with her knees clamped together, one hand on her hip and the other lightly touching her back hair, I should think, "Either she... Quentin Crisp
