"Pleasedtameetya, Todd!" He puts an arm around my shoulders and pretty much drags me forward up the path. I stumble along, barely keeping my balance as he pulls us to Hildy and Viola, talking all the way. "We haven't had guests for dinner in many a moon, so ye'll have to be a-scusing our humble shack.

'People sometimes ask what you'd do in an emergency, like there's time to plan. You can't plan. You don't think. You just do something. It's like there's this thing that kicks in and you're on automatic. Action that comes straight from the brain and the character and the experience.'

ReplyDeletePeter Pan by J.M Barrie :D
Girls like her, my grandfather once warned me, girls like her turn into women with eyes like bullet holes and mouths made of knives. They are always restless. They are always hungry. They are bad news. They will drink you down like a shot of whisky. Falling in love with them is like falling down a flight of stairs. What no one told me, with all those warnings, is that even after you’ve fallen, even after you know how painful it is, you’d still get in line to do it again.

This is one of my favourite quotes, I've got it written on my wall.
ReplyDelete“I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be.” - Roald Dahl, My Uncle Oswald.

ReplyDelete-Opal by Jennifer L.Armentrout
“Felicity ignores us. She walks out to them, an apparition in white and blue velvet, her head held high as they stare in awe at her, the goddess. I don't know yet what power feels like. But this is surely what it looks like, and I think I'm beginning to understand why those ancient women had to hide in caves. Why our parents and suitors want us to behave properly and predictably. It's not that they want to protect us; it's that they fear us.”
ReplyDelete― Libba Bray, A Great and Terrible Beauty
Once, in school, we had this discussion about whether ignorance really is bliss. Everyone kept saying they’d rather know the truth than go on living a lie. But me, I just kept arguing that the only way to truly be happy is to not know the truth.
ReplyDeleteBecause the truth is too complicated.
And, most of the time, the truth is too ugly.

She looked at Doon and saw that he was smiling and crying at the same time, and she realized that she was, too.”

Maybe my values are outdated, but I come from an old school of thought. I think that men ought to treat women like something other than just shorter, weaker men with breasts.
