Lee saw the fireball and head through the roar in his ears Hester saying, "That's the last of 'em Lee."He said, or thought, "Those poor men didn't have to come to this, nor did we."She said, "We held 'em off. We held out. We're a-helping Lyra."Then she was pressing her little proud broken self against his face, as close as she could get, and then they died. Philip Pullman
Virginia Woolf quote: "I refuse to allow you, Beadle though you are, to turn me off..."
I refuse to allow you, Beadle though you are, to turn me off the grass Virginia Woolf
Leave it to you, Bella. Anyone else would be better off when the vampires left town. But you have to start hanging out with the first monsters you can find. Stephenie Meyer
[...] and as I walked, I tried to see the funny side. It wasn't easy, and I'm still not sure that I managed it properly, but it's just something I like to do when things aren't going well. Because what does it mean, to say that things aren't going well? Compared to what? You can say: compared to how things were going a couple of hours ago, or a couple of years ago. But that's not the point. If two cars are speeding towards a brick wall with no brakes, and one car hits the wall moments before... Hugh Laurie
Coming down off the trail, I am lost in my own thoughts and unprepared when a bear chugs across the path just before it gives out on the gravel road. I am so distracted that I keep walking towards the bear. I only stop when it rears, stands on hind legs, and stares at me, sensitive nose pressed into the air, weak eyes searching. I have never been this close to a wild bear before, but I am not frightened. There is no menace in its stance; it is not even curious. The bear seems to know who or... Louise Erdrich
If you weren't around, I'd probably be someplace way the hell off. In the woods or some goddamn place. You're the only reason I'm around, practically. J. D. Salinger
Dan Brown quote: "Imagine how different a world might be if more leaders took..."
Imagine how different a world might be if more leaders took time to ponder the finality of death before racing off to war. Dan Brown
H. G. Wells quote: "Only people who are well off can be - complex."
Only people who are well off can be - complex. H. G. Wells
Wake up now, look alive, for here is a day off work just to praise Creation: the turkey, the squash, and the corn, these things that ate and drank sunshine, grass, mud, and rain, and then in the shortening days laid down their lives for our welfare and onward resolve. There's the miracle for you, the absolute sacrifice that still holds back seed: a germ of promise to do the whole thing again, another time. . . Thanksgiving is Creation's birthday party. Praise harvest, a pause and sigh on... Barbara Kingsolver
Landscape Isn't it plain the sheets of moss, except that they have no tongues, could lecture all day if they wanted about spiritual patience? Isn't it clear the black oaks along the path are standing as though they were the most fragile of flowers? Every morning I walk like this around the pond, thinking: if the doors of my heart ever close, I am as good as dead. Every morning, so far, I'm alive. And now the crows break off from the rest of the darkness and burst up into the sky—as... Mary Oliver
Charlaine Harris quote: "I kicked off my sandals, put my ice-tinkling glass on the..."
I kicked off my sandals, put my ice-tinkling glass on the small table by my current book. Charlaine Harris
Yet part of me also thinks the whole idea makes perfect sense. The three of us, leaving our differences behind, stepping on the plane together, sitting side by side, lifting off, moving West to reach the East. Amy Tan
But the act, called the sexual act, is not for the depositing of seed. It is for leaping off into the unknown, as from a cliff's edge, like Sappho into the sea. David Herbert Lawrence
C. S. Lewis quote: "Surely what a man does when he is taken off his guard is the..."
Surely what a man does when he is taken off his guard is the best evidence for what sort of man he is. C. S. Lewis

A bee rose up from a sun-filled paper cup, off to make slum honey from some diet root beer it had found inside. Nicholson Baker
