Nobody believed in anything except hanging on to power, whatever it took. ..... Carl Hiaasen

I'm not a child, Dad. And I'm not grounded anymore, remember?' 'Oh yes, you are. Starting now.' 'For what?' 'Because I said so.' 'Do I need to remind you that I'm a legal adult, Charlie?' 'This is my house, you follow my rules!' My glare turned icy. ' If that's hoe you want it. Do you want my to move out tonight? Or can I have a few days to pack?' Charlie's face went bright red. I instantly felt horrible for playing the move-out card. I took a deep breath and tried to make my tone more... Stephenie Meyer

She was, if anything, on the plain side, at least not the type to attract men wherever she went. But there was something in her face that was meant for me alone. Everytime we met, I took a good look at her. And loved what I saw. Haruki Murakami
Simone de Beauvoir quote: "History took hold of me and never let me go thereafter."

Arundhati Roy quote: "He folded his fear into a perfect rose. He held it out in the..."
He folded his fear into a perfect rose. He held it out in the palm of his hand. She took it from him and put it in her hair. Arundhati Roy
J. R. R. Tolkien quote: "To think I should have lived to be goodmorninged by Belladonna..."
To think I should have lived to be goodmorninged by Belladonna Took's son, as if I was selling buttons at the door!" Gandalf J. R. R. Tolkien
I have only known her for two years. But if you took every memory, every moment, if you stretched them end to end-they'd reach forever. Jodi Picoult

"No. It is inevitable that all humans must be injured, contract illnesses and ultimately die. The future can only be averted for humans who are already dead. Ergo..." It took a dozen cops to subdue R-4, after his blood orgy in a department store (83 dead, none injured). John Sladek
