| 0f69e67 | If one wanted to depict the whole thing graphically, every episode, with its climax, would require a three-dimensional, or, rather, no model: every experience is unrepeatable.

| 35def40 | Have you no hope at all? And do you really live with the thought that when you die, you die, and nothing remains?" "Yes," I said." | Albert Camus | ||

| 1bf7d7a | Dear Leonard. To look life in the face. Always to look life in the face and to know it for what it is. At last to know it. To love it for what it is, and then, to put it away. Leonard.

| 88b9fdd | How much are you lifting?" "Seven hundred." Alrighty then. I will just stand over here, out of your way, and hope you don't remember to kick my ass. He grinned. "Wanna spot me?"

Make that weight your bitch!" | Ilona Andrews | ||
| 5f35cc8 | I'm so glad you're here," Aphrodite said. "War is coming. Bloodshed is inevitable. So there's really only one thing to do." "Uh... and that is?" Annabeth ventured. "Why, have tea and chat, obviously" | aphrodite the-mark-of-athena | Rick Riordan | |

| c71b98d | Look at children. Of course they may quarrel, but generally speaking they do not harbor ill feelings as much or as long as adults do. Most adults have the advantage of education over children, but what is the use of an education if they show a big smile while hiding negative feelings deep inside? Children don't usually act in such a manner. If they feel angry with someone, they express it, and then it is finished. They can still play with t.. | inspirational children | His Holiness the Dahai Lama | |

| 87a5967 | I am a drifter, and as lonely as that can be, it is also remarkably freeing. I will never define myself in terms of anyone else. I will never feel the pressure of peers or the burden of parental expectation. I can view everyone as pieces of a whole, and focus on the whole, not the pieces. I have learned to observe, far better than most people observe. I am not blinded by the past or motivated by the future. I focus on the present because th.. | future past loner lonely | David Levithan | |

| 68a73dc | Do you know how far the wall is from the mines?" He gave her blank look. She closed her eyes and sighed dramatically. "From my shaft, it was three hundred sixty-three feet. I had someone measure." "So?" Dorian repeated. "Captain Westfall, how far do slaves make it from the mines when they try to escape?" "Three feet," he muttered.

| 0395913 | Pride is what killed Al, and it is the flaw in every Dauntless heart. It is in mine. | Veronica Roth | ||
