What Is Love? I have met in the streets a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, the water passed through his shoes and the stars through his soul Victor Hugo
We live in the richest country in the world. There's plenty and to spare for no man, woman, or child to be in want. And in addition to this our country was founded on what should have been a great, true principle - the freedom, equality, and rights of each individual. Huh! And what has come of that start? There are corporations worth billions of dollars - and hundreds of thousands of people who don't get to eat. Carson McCullers

Marcel Proust

Tom Wolfe

Between Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Between the Jacob I like and the one who annoys the hell out of me. Stephenie Meyer
Altogether out of control. This can't be the work of just one newborn vampire. What's going on? It's as if they've never heard of the Volturi. Which is possible. No one has explained the rules to them . . . so who is creating them, then. Stephenie Meyer
There's one sad truth in life I've found. While journeying east and west -The only folks we really wound. Are those we love the best. We flatter those we scarcely know, We please the fleeting guest, And deal full many a thoughtless blow. To those who love us best. Ella Wheeler Wilcox
I think the most joyous thing in life is to loaf around and watch another bloke do a job of work. Look how popular are the men who dig up London with electric drills. Duke's son, cook's son, son of a hundred kings, people will stand there for hours on end, ear drums splitting. Why? Simply for the pleasure of being idle while watching other people work. Dorothy L. Sayers

Beauty - the beauty Peter craves - is this, then: a human bundle of accidental grace and doom and hope. Mizzy must have hope, he must, he wouldn't shine like this if he were in true despair, and of course he's young, who in this world despairs more exquisitely than the young, it's something the old tend to forget. Michael Cunningham
