Does one need to know more, ever more and more, in order that one put off acting on it or maybe even not act at all? Walker Percy
The world’s crawling with stupid, innocent girls, and I’m just one of them, self-consciously chasing after dreams that’ll never come true. I should shut the piano lid and come down off the stage. Before it’s too late. Haruki Murakami
If he expects me to talk for the mere sake of talking and showing off, he will find he has addressed himself to the wrong person. Charlotte Bronte
Thanks anyway,' Vanderdecker repeated, and wandered off to have a stare at the sea. It was his equivalent to beating his head repeatedly against a wall. Tom Holt
Stephen King quote: "If something got you to turn off T.V. , it's a total success"
If something got you to turn off T.V. , it's a total success Stephen King
[from an entry by her daughter Camille] Organic produce actually delivers more nutritional bang for the buck. These fruits and vegetables are tougher creatures than those labeled "conventional," precisely because they've had to fight off predators themselves. Barbara Kingsolver
Neil Gaiman quote: "Can I help you?" said the footman. Richard had been told to..."
Can I help you?" said the footman. Richard had been told to fuck off and die with more warmth and good humor. Neil Gaiman
Mr. Weasley was unavailable for comment, although his wife told reporters to clear off or she'd set the family ghoul on them. J. K. Rowling
