| 88639aa | I am about to impart to you the sacred words my father gave to me. It's the five responses that will get you out of any female problem...I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't do it. Baby, there's no one else in my world but you. Oops. And Jesus is Lord. Not to mention you can combine them.

| 06c09bb | We all make mistakes, Steele. It's what we do afterward that defines us more than the actual incident that led to the mistake. (Joe) | Sherrilyn Kenyon | ||
| eef5365 | I know you're going to find this hard to believe, but for some reason I don't understand, I actually like you...most of the time. (Simone) Well, you also love Jesse. Obviously your taste in men leaves a lot to be desired. (Xypher) | Sherrilyn Kenyon | ||
| f9cce6a | Asteros's Motto: "Most experience comes from bad judgement." | Sherrilyn Kenyon | ||
| 6924c8e | I want blood! Two of Aksel's dogs cornered me near Tondara. They shot me. Those bastards actually shot a hole in my stabilizer the size of Mirala...Aren't you going to say something? (Syn) Were you hurt? (Nykyrian) No. (Syn) Then why are you having a fit? (Nykyrian) I don't know, it just felt right. You see why I don't like being sober? I overreact like an old woman. (He opened his flask, then slammed it down on Nykyrian's desk.) Figures th.. | Sherrilyn Kenyon | ||
| 2881fae | There will never be another Dark-Hunter who goes free. Your happiness comes at the expense of their freedom because there's no one else I want to barter with. No one else to pay the fee you set up centuries ago. Knowing that, I hope you sleep well at night. (Artemis) (Artemis leaves.) But what about the Dark-Hunters? (Acheron) The one thing I've learned most out of all this is that it's not over until all the cards are played. She laid down.. | Sherrilyn Kenyon | ||
| 9a89164 | I wish I wasn't an imperial highness or an ex-grand duchess. I'm sick of people doing things to me because of what I am. Girl-in-white-dress. Short-one-with-fringe. Daughter-of-the-tsar. Child-of-the-ex-tyrant. I want people to look and see me, Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, not the caboose on a train of grand duchesses. Someday, I promise myself, no one will be able to hear my name or look at my picture and suppose they know all about me. .. | life inspirational otma romanovs tsar-nicholas russian-revolution royalty self russia | Sarah Miller | |
| 3692665 | The beggarly question of parentage--what is it, after all? What does it matter, when you come to think of it, whether a child is yours by blood or not? All the little ones of our time are collectively the children of us adults of the time, and entitled to our general care. That excessive regard of parents for their own children, and their dislike of other people's, is, like class-feeling, patriotism, save-your-own-soul-ism, and other virtue.. | parental-love | Thomas Hardy | |

| 1fe0d95 | There was always another side to a joke, the side of the victim. | Graham Greene | ||
| ce1b0ec | I have never understood why people who can swallow the enormous improbability of a personal God boggle at a personal Devil. I have known so intimately the way that demon works in my imagination. No statement that Sarah ever made was proof against his cunning doubts, though he would usually wait till she had gone to utter them. He would prompt our quarrels long before they occurred: he was not Sarah's enemy so much as the enemy of love, and .. | Graham Greene | ||
| 31e310c | I couldn't help wondering, is my husband so unattractive that no woman has ever wanted him? Except me, of course. I must have wanted him, in a way, once, but I've forgotten why, and I was too young to know what I was choosing. | Graham Greene | ||

| 113ad4e | For although nepenthe has calmed me, I know always that I am an outsider; a stranger in this century and among those who are still men.

| 6f0e599 | You say I am repeating Something I have said before. I shall say it again. Shall I say it agian? In order to arrive there, To arrive where you are, to get from where you are not, You must go by a way wherein there is no ecstasy. In order to arrive at what you do not know You must go by a way which is the way of ignorance. In order to possess what you do not possess You must go by the way of dispossession. In order to arrive at what you are.. | T.S. Eliot | ||
| 3f95c3a | It's taken me years of practice to learn how to act natural. | Craig Clevenger | ||
| fe46772 | And why do you want to be near me?" Because you're all I can think about, day and night. I don't know what the hell is going on with us; I only know I can't get rid of it. I don't care if you're batshit insane and think you're the reincarnation of Cleopatra. I hear voices; you hear dogs. We'll work it out. Maybe get a discount on therapy." | Jennifer Crusie | ||

| 4d917e6 | We wish we could have been there for you. We didn't have many role models of our own--we latched on to the foolish love of Oscar Wilde and the well-versed longing of Walt Whitman because nobody else was there to show us an untortured path. We were going to be your role models. We were going to give you art and music and confidence and shelter and a much better world. Those who survived lived to do this. But we haven't been there for you. We.. | glbt role-models | David Levithan | |

| 2d6adf0 | Actual life was chaos, but there was something terribly logical in the imagination. It was the imagination that set remorse to dog the feet of sin.

Success was given to the strong, failure thrust upon the weak. That was all. | imagination | Oscar Wilde | |
