Lo unico que nos separa es la lluvia. Y luego ya no hay nada que nos separe. Mis labios se funden con los suyos. Una gota de lluvia se desliza por la comisura de mi boca. Sus labios y los mios se abren. La gota me cae en la lengua y se pierde en la suya. Estoy empapado. Deberia tener frio, pero me invade su calor. La envuelvo con los brazos y la atraigo hacia mi con fuerza. Quiero aplastarla contra mi. No quiero que esto acabe nunca.

Para mi el amor no era mas real que ese dios al que adora Amy. Siempre he oido hablar del amor como algo semejante a los ritos religiosos: historias que contaba la gente de Tierra Solar para sentirse mejor en el mundo tan imperfecto que habian colaborado a crear. Pero ahora... -Es preferible haber amado y perdido a no haber amado nunca -afirma Victria.

The President called it the "Epitome of the American dream." Daddy called it the "unholy alliance of business and government." But all it really was, was America giving up. Bailing out in order to join the Financial Resource Exchange. A multinational alliance focused on one thing: profit. Fund global medical care to monopolize vaccines. Back unified currency to collect planet-wide interest. And provide the resources needed for a select grou..

El poder es tener la fuerza y ser capaz de transmitirsela a otros. Ser un lider no es obligar a los demas a que te hagan mas fuerte, sino estar dispuesto a repartir tu fuerza para que los demas puedan mantenerse en pie por si solos.

La oigo sollozar al otro lado de la puerta. Paso el pulgar por el escaner y la puerta se abre antes de darme cuenta de lo que he hecho: entrar sin permiso en una habitacion. Pero eso no importa; lo unico que importa es que Amy esta tumbada en la cama, sollozando con tanta fuerza que todo su cuerpo se estremece. -?Que te pasa? -pregunto corriendo hacia ella. Amy levanta la vista para mirarme. Sus ojos parecen de jade derretido. Gimotea y se ..

As the dreamscape around me grows clearer, I slip further away from it. The mind is a magical thing, I'm discovering. A dreamscape is made of thought and is wider than the sky, able to grow large enough to fit not just our own world, but every possibility and impossibility beyond it. Once I quit thinking of it as being forced into the laws of physics, it's easy to manipulate the dreamscape into anything I want. I don't know how I know all t..

Words are powerful things. They can start--or end--wars. People believe in words. They are the fundamental expression of ourselves, the division between human and not, the means by which we learn. And while people use words to teach, to express art, to proclaim truths, at the most basic level, people use words to simply say: I am here.

Read. Read them all. Read the books you love, and try to read books you don't. Read the genres you love, but sometimes also read a book outside your comfort zone. Read voraciously.

Orion says it's human nature." It's not, I think. "It's not," Victria says. I look at her, surprised. "If it was, I'd be like them," she says, nodding at the couple by the steps. Well, frex. She's right. "But I'm not."

A week ago, I would have snorted at those words. Love was no more real than the "god" Amy worshipped. I'd heard of "love" in the same context that I heard of those religious fairy tales--as stories Sol-Earth people used to tell to make themselves feel better about the imperfect world they helped to create. But now..."

I learned that life is so, so fragile. I learned that you can know someone for just days and never forget the impression he left on you. I learned that art can be beautiful and sad at the same time. I learned that if someone loves you, he'll wait for you to love him back. I learned that how much you want something doesn't determine whether you get it or not, that "no" might not be enough, that life isn't fair, that my parents can't save me,..

La emocion corre como una riada por mis venas y amenaza con ahogarme. Me siento t..

I just had to hope you'd find me," he says. Then he can't talk any more because I'm kissing him, and I don't think I'll ever stop. But I do. I lean back and stare into his eyes, and it's not until I see the light within them that I realize the truth of it. He's back. -- Beth Revis (Shades of Earth pg. 440)"

Eldest thinks power is control, that the best way to be a leader is to force everyone into obedience. Holding Amy against me, I realize the simple truth is that power isn't control at all-- power is strength, and giving that strength to others.
