| 97152fb | The stark, pedestrian images used by filmmakers (probably out of financial necessity) expressed nothing, symbolically or metaphorically. The only purpose they served was to remind me that a huge chunk of my life is completely over, even though I will probably live 60 more years. There are so many things that will never happen to me again, and I never even noticed when those things stopped occurring. And this does not mean I wish I had my ol.. | Chuck Klosterman | ||

| 2a616b8 | Once upon a time, Sleeping Beauty decided to take a nap from which she would never wake up. | Rachel Cohn | ||
| 1783324 | I kind of hate Nick right now, too, but there's someone else higher on my list, someone I hate more than Saddam Hussein and any asshole named Bush combined, hate more than that fuckhead who canceled 'My So-Called Life' and left me with a too-small boxed DVD set that does not answer the questions whether Angela and Jordan Catalano did it, or if Patty and Graham got a divorce, or if there really was something to all that lesbian subtext betwe.. | pop-culture | Rachel Cohn | |
| 3fdc7d2 | I was horribly bookish, to the point of coming right out and saying it, which I knew was not socially acceptable. | Rachel Cohn | ||
| ce552ae | Listen to me: I never married because I was too easily bored. It's an awful, self-defeating trait to have. It's much better to be too easily interested. | Rachel Cohn | ||

| 5dcc770 | Then I, Wrath, son of Wrath, do take you as my shellan, to watch over and care for you and any begotten young we may have, sure as I would and will my kingdom, and its citizenry. You shall be mine fore'ermore--your enemies are mine own, your bloodline to mix with mine own, your dusks and your dawns to share only with me. This bond shall ne'er be torn asunder by forces within or without--and"--here he paused--"there shall be one and only one.. | J.R. Ward | ||

| be3d6ba | His hands uncupped himself and he stared downward. It was a long while before he spoke, and when he did, his words were slow and considered ... and as ceaseless as his quiet tears. "I wish I were whole. I wish I could have given you young if you'd wanted them and could conceive them. I wish I could have told you that it killed me when you thought I had been with anyone else. I wish I had spent the last year waking up every night and tellin.. | J.R. Ward | ||
| 29fd66a | She was pretty sure that if she had been, though, none of the hypotheticals would have resembled this in the slightest: surrounded by vampires, possibly pregnant, with a fallen angel in an Elvis costume mangling the ceremony from the Book of Common Prayer. | J.R. Ward | ||

The Reverend opened his jacket and flashed the butt of a forty. "Nice little poodle shooter you got there, vampire." "Put a hell of a-" V cut in. "You two are like playing tennis, and racquet sports bore me. What's the news?" Revh looked at Butch.

| d1f46fd | It looked like Tohr and the kid had a lot in common: Courtesy of their tempers, both were now dressed in the Captain Asshole costume--which included, for no extra charge, the cape of disgrace, the booties of shame, and keys to the Fuck Up mobile. | J.R. Ward | ||
| 569904f | You can call me Pastor-and before Mr. Sox Fan gets his panties in a wad, I want everyone to know I'm legit. I went online, took a minister's course in under an hour, and I'm ordained, baby. | humor j-r-ward lassiter the-king | J.R. Ward | |

| 899faa1 | From the sound of pattering raindrops I recaptured the scent of the lilacs at Combray; from the shifting of the sun's rays on the balcony the pigeons in the Champs-Elysees; from the muffling of sounds in the heat of the morning hours, the cool taste of cherries; the longing for Brittany or Venice from the noise of the wind and the return of Easter. Summer was at hand, the days were long, the weather was warm. It was the season when, early i.. | Marcel Proust | ||
| ac68b69 | She poured out Swann's tea, inquired "Lemon or cream?" and, on his answering "Cream, please," said to him with a laugh: "A cloud!" And as he pronounced it excellent, "You see, I know just how you like it." This tea had indeed seemed to Swann, just as it seemed to her; something precious, and love has such a need to find some justification for itself, some guarantee of duration, in pleasures which without it would have no existence and must .. | tea | Marcel Proust | |

| 5deef2d | In reading The History of Nations, we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and their peculiarities, their seasons of excitement and recklessness, when they care not what they do. We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more capti.. | hysteria madness | Charles MacKay | |

| 2abf62f | Continuaba cuestionando los limites del mundo, al ver la miseria de quien con ellos se conforma, y no pude soportar por mucho tiempo lo facil de la ficcion: yo le exigia la realidad, me volvi loco. Si mentia, me quedaba en el plano de la poesia, de una superacion verbal del mundo. Si perseveraba en una denigracion ciega del mundo, mi denigracion era falsa (como la superacion). En cierto modo, mi conformidad con el mundo se profundizaba. Per.. | mentiras noche poesía realidad | Georges Bataille | |
| ea8fa07 | To put it more precisely, since language is by definition the expression of civilised man, violence is silent. Civilisation and language grew as though violence was something outside. But silence cannot do away with things that language cannot state. Violence is as stubbornly there just as much as death, and if language cheats to conceal universal annihilation, the placid work of time, language alone suffers, language is the poorer, not tim.. | Georges Bataille | ||
