Books, for me, are a home. Books don't make a home - they are one, in the sense that just as you do with a door, you open a book, and you go inside. Inside there is a different kind of time and space. There is warmth there too - a hearth. I sit down with a book and I am warm. Jeanette Winterson

This is mostly asked by guys on the sidewalk selling I LOVE NEW YORK paraphernalia in New York City. Mindy Kaling

Kitty: I thought your ladyship was ill. I wanted to help you. Lady de. Winter: I ill? Do you take me for a weak woman? When I am insulted I do not feel ill - I avenge myself. Do you hear? Alexander Dumas
As I glanced at the phraseology of the research report, dull and unfathomable to outsiders like me, I thought that if you have the ambition to become a villain, the first thing you should do is learn to be impenetrable.

It makes us look bad: the duller the interviewee, the duller the prose. If you want to get away with wielding true, malevolent... Jon Ronson

My dad is a Chatty Cathy, the social butterfly; friendly; knows everybody in the whole world by six degrees; tells me that every performance is the greatest he’s ever seen, every new outfit is the coolest. Constant cheerleader. It’s cool to have pie-in-the-sky Dad, down-to-earth Mom. Taylor Swift
C. S. Lewis quote: "Emerson said, Do you love me? means Do you see the same..."
Emerson said, Do you love me? means Do you see the same truth?-Or at least, "Do you care about the same truth? C. S. Lewis
