| e744924 | It is as inhuman to be totally good as it is to be totally evil. The important thing is moral choice. Evil has to exist along with good, in order that moral choice may operate. Life is sustained by the grinding opposition of moral entities. | Anthony Burgess | ||
| 8f63832 | Look, I don't see why bad artists - I mean artists who are obviously incompetent... - why they should be presented hypocritically as good artists just because they're supposed to be advancing the frontiers of freedom of expression or... ...demonstrating that there should be no limit on subject matter. | artists freedom-of-expression | Anthony Burgess | |
| 7132643 | I was very lighthearted. This often the way when the abandonment of personal responsibility is enforced: neither wronged innocence or just guilt can seriously impair the sensation of freedom one has. | persecution | Anthony Burgess | |
| f17e0b3 | I am instructed by the Home Secretary to read out the following. . . . It is a prayer devised by the Ministry of Propaganda. . . . 'It is conceivable that the forces of death which at present are ravaging the esculent life of this planet have intelligence, in which case we beseech them to leave off. It we have done wrong--allowing in our blindness natural impulse to overcome reason--we are, of course, heartily sorry. But we submit that we h.. | Anthony Burgess | ||

| 2887956 | They have turned you into something other than a human being. You have no power of choice any longer. You are committed to socially acceptable acts, a little machine capable only of good. And I see that clearly--that business about the marginal conditionings. Music and the sexual act, literature and art, all must be a source now not of pleasure but of pain. | Anthony Burgess | ||
| 4f08c05 | Life to most of us is just a jumble of sensations, like a very bad film with no plot, no real beginning and end. | Anthony Burgess | ||
| 5d4fb4b | It's a question of discipline,' the little prince told me later on. 'when you've finished washing and dressing each morning, you must tend your planet. you must be sure you pull up the baobabs regularly, as soon as you can tell them apart from the rosebushes, which they closely resemble when they're very young. It's very tedious work, but very easy. | Antoine de Saint-Exupéry | ||

| fc44449 | The first things I saw upon dying were Persephone's breasts and nipples. Or at least one nipple, but there was definitely a nipple. Something seemed wrong about that being the first thing I saw in the afterlife. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 3a112dd | Lesa giggled. "Sounds like one of those romance books you read." "It does," I started giggling. "But, oh Lordie Lord, it's true. I'm like a puddle of mush when he kisses me. It's embarrassing. I'm so, like, 'Thank you, can I have another?' Sad." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 9bc718c | She moved suddenly, planting her hands against the kitchen floor. Throwing back her head, she screamed, and that sound was full of sorrow and heartbreak. It started as a low tremble under my feet and then increased, shaking the kitchen table and rattling the plates and cups in the cabinets. Then it was a rumble, causing the house to groan and small clouds of dust to drop from the ceiling. The table scuttled over the floor. A chair toppled o.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| bb007b5 | I called up Andrew, Adam's twin and the Thompson brother who matched me in temperament and personality. In other words, we were fucking balls of sunshine. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 8fddddd | I don't know what to . . . to think." There was a horrifying burn of tears crawling up my throat. "This is all overwhelming for you, I imagine. The whole world as you know it is on the brink of great change, and you're here and don't even know my name." The man smiled so broadly, I wondered if it hurt. "You can call me Rolland." Then he extended a hand. My gaze dropped to it and I made no attempt to take it. Rolland chuckled as he turned an.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| c2ce5be | The whole telling part seemed a moot point now, but how could he explain what happened? Hey, honey, I'm an alien and apparently I just doused you with some radioactive loving! Wanna catch a movie? Yeah, not cool. | humor | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
| c4dce50 | Daemon had not stayed. My smile slipped from my face. He was standing by the window, his back to me. "I got bored." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| b0f5a81 | It had always been Roth; from the moment he swaggered into that d- alley, where I'd been unsuccessfully fighting off a demon, it had been him for me. Maybe I'd been too blind to see that after he returned from the pits. Maybe I had been too angry with him after the way he initially acted. | new-adult-romance roth | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
| 3fc261e | Forever was the fire-breathing dragon inside me that had shed the fear like a snake shedding skin. Forever was simply a promise of more. Forever was a work in progress. And I couldn't wait for forever. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 2f0fe73 | His kiss...well, it made me. He made me. And because of that, I knew it went both ways. He made me. I made him. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 4323be4 | I dropped down on the cushion beside Lea and picked up the book she'd been reading. Turning the book over, my brows flew up as I got an eyeful of the hottie on the cover. "Wait. Is this book about aliens?" She snatched it back from me. "Yes." "Really?" "But they're hot aliens." She tapped on the guy's face with one thin finger. "And he can be my ET any day." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| e9832a4 | Roth," muttered Zayne. He sounded closer, but I didn't want to take my eyes off the Alphas to check. "You might want to chill out a bit." The Crown Prince smirked. "Nah. You want to know why? The Alphas could end me, but they're not going to." Across from us, the Alpha who had spoken stiffened but didn't interrupt. "You see, I am the favorite Crown Prince," Roth continued, his smirk spreading. "They take me out when I haven't done anything .. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 67314ab | His gaze lifted as he leaned in, placing his mouth an inch from mine. The air was sucked right out of the room, and I felt dizzy again. "Ever since I first saw you." He moved so that his mouth was angled with mine. "And right now I want to so badly it hurts. You have no idea, Em, but I don't want to hurt you." My gaze dropped to his parted lips. What would it be like to feel them against my own? Unable to stop myself, I brought my mouth wi.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

| ca64dbf | Her normally coiffed hair looked like she'd been inside a wind tunnel, but the best part? Fingernail marks were etched down the side of Sadi's face and reddish-blue blood had been drawn. A disturbing level of pride rippled through me. Kitten got claws and then some. "She doesn't play nice with others," Sadi huffed out. "So I'm in the process of adjusting her attitude." "And I'm in the process of getting ready to cut out your heart, bitch." .. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
| 47c5763 | I started to respond, but Bambi slithered up and placed its horse-sized head on my shoulder. Every muscle in my body locked up and I squeezed my eyes shut. There was a puff of air, stirring the hair along my temple. Bambi's forked tongue shot out, tickling the side of my neck. "Hey, look, Bambi likes you." I pried one eye open. "And if she didn't?" "Oh, you'd know, 'cause she would've eaten you by now." Armentrout, Jennifer L. (2014-03-.. | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

| 93262db | Touching him, kissing him, was like having a fever all over again. I was on fire. My body burned. The world burned. Sparks flew. Against his mouth, I moaned. There was a POP! and CRACK! The smell of burned plastic filled the cubicle. We pulled apart, breathing heavily. Over his shoulder I saw thin strips of smoke wafting from the top of the ancient monitor. Good God, was this going to happen every time we kissed? | katy library | Jennifer L. Armentrout | |
| 5d11bf2 | I bet you're the type of guy not afraid of anything, huh?" "Oh, no, there are things that terrify me." "Like what?" "Muppets," came his solemn reply." | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||
