'Like that, I should think,' answered Anne, pointing to a radiance of sifted sunlight streaming through a birch tree. 'Only with shape and features of course. I like to fancy souls as being made of light. And some are all shot through with rosy stains and quivers...and some have a soft glitter like moonlight on the sea...and some are pale and transparent lik.. | souls | L.M. Montgomery | |

| 24732e1 | When liberal whites fail to understand how they can and/or do embody white supremacist values and beliefs even though they may not embrace racism as prejudice or domination (especially domination that involves coercive control), they cannot recognize the ways their actions support and affirm the very structure of racist domination and oppression that they wish to see eradicated. | bell hooks | ||

Ian raged. "Why don't you lock that animal in the cellar? Or, better still, send him to a violen string factory! What this stuff-acid?" "My own concoction," she replied cheerfully.

Of house-elves and children's tales, of love, loyalty, and innocence, Voldemort knows and understands nothing. Nothing. That they all have a power beyond his own, a power beyond the reach of any magic, is a truth he has never grasped... | power | J.K. Rowling | |

| 6e37382 | Everything had shattered. The fact that it was all still there -- the walls and the chairs and the children's pictures on the walls -- meant nothing.
