| 538a77b | Let your love flow out on all living things. | William Styron | ||
| 6adac06 | I had now reached that phase of the disorder where all sense of hope had vanished, along with the idea of a futurity; my brain, in thrall to its outlaw hormones, had become less an organ of thought than an instrument registering, minute by minute, varying degrees of its own suffering. | William Styron | ||
| 0038261 | the important thing is not to point a finger at flaws but to attempt to correct them! | Bebe Moore Campbell | ||

| 579a822 | I have never heard of the Wife Project. But I'm about to. In detail.' 'Of course,' I said. 'But we should time-share it with pizza-consumption and beer-drinking.' 'Of course,' said Rosie | Graeme Simsion | ||
| ef5a802 | I am able to hug Rosie. This was the issue that caused me the most fear after she agreed to live with me. I generally find body contact unpleasant, but sex is an obvious exception. Sex solved the body contact problem. We are now also able to hug without having sex, which is obviously convenient at times. | Graeme Simsion | ||
| 367c768 | I have heard the word 'stunning' used to describe women, but this was the first time I had actually been stunned by one. | Graeme Simsion | ||
| de138ff | I haven't really noticed," I told the most beautiful woman in the world." | Graeme Simsion | ||
| 927362a | It is generally accepted that people enjoy surprises: hence the traditions associated with Christmas, birthdays, and anniversaries. In my experience, most of the pleasure accrues to the giver. The victim is frequently under pressure to feign, at short notice, a positive response to an unwanted object or unscheduled event. | Graeme Simsion | ||
| 7c6c064 | Let's just say that being able to contact ghosts makes for some very interesting menages a trios... and menages a quartre, and menages a ... whatever five is in French. ~Jaime Vegas | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| 3dedec0 | I saw my true power. The darkest power. The greatest power. ~Jaime Vegas | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| c0b9222 | I spend four years chasing the guy of my dreams, finally get him, and now I have to compete with a gorgeous, twenty-year-old supernatural sex fiend. ~Jaime Vegas | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| adb0845 | She hasn't been on a date in six months,' Derek rumbled behind us. 'No offense, but as long as you aren't related to her, you're fair game. Hell, even-' Tori spun on him. 'I didn't know. | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| aa6c26a | Tell me when you want to pick it up again." "Tell me when Satan starts a snowball fight." "I'll do that. Lunch?" | elena humour love | Kelley Armstrong | |

| b33b01e | Canada?" Ash said. "You didn't say it was in Canada. "I said Ontario." (Maya) "I thought you meant Ontario, California." "Seriously?" Tori said,rolling her eyes. "A helicopter to California? You may be hot,but your sister clearly inherited all the brains in the family." "Did she call me hot?" Ash whispered to me, looking more annoyed than he ever did when someone called him a jerk. "She hasn't been on a date in six months", Derek rumbled be.. | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| 0202b66 | so, when I spotted a cougar stretched out on a thick pine tree branch near the park gates, I wasn't surprised. I can't say the same for the women clinging to the branch above the cat. she was the one screaming. The cougar-a ragged-ear old top I clled Marv-just stared at her, like he couldn't believe anyone would be dumb to climb a tree to escape a cat. | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| 8a1964e | The rottweiler stood his ground and waited for me to take the next step in the dance of ritualized intimidation. Instead, I leaped at him. Screw ritual. Now was not the time to stand on ceremony. | humour | Kelley Armstrong | |
| 0436f07 | While his three eldest sons spent their adult lives toiling to improve the family fortunes, who had Benicio named as his heir? The illegitimate youngest son who had devoted adult life to destroying the family business, or at least buggering it up real good. Does this make sense to anyone besides Benicio? Of course not. Either the man is a mastermind of family manipulation or just plain fucked in the head. I don't use that word much, but i.. | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| 5a3e360 | His voice sounded the same, now so familiar that I could follow the beat in my head, predicting each change of tone, each note of accentuation. | Kelley Armstrong | ||
| e48c6dc | No life is easy. It's just a different kind of hard. | rayne | Kelley Armstrong | |
| 0ed7c01 | Is that a no?" I said. "No. I mean.." He struggled for the smile again. "I'm just waiting for the punch line. Something about making it date so I need to pay. Or you expecting flowers. Or.." He trailed off. "There isn't a punch line," I said. I rose onto my knees and inched over, in front of him. Then I stopped about a foot away. "No punch line, Daniel," I said. "I'm asking if you'll go out with me." He didn't answer. Just reched out, his .. | moment | Kelley Armstrong | |
| 341da4e | Beyond the town, darker than dark, King Haggard's castle teetered like a lunatic on stilts... | Peter S. Beagle | ||
| b0ee35a | From that first moment of doubt, there was no peace for her; from the time she first imagined leaving her forest, she could not stand in one place without wanting to be somewhere else. She trotted up and down beside her pool, restless and unhappy. Unicorns are not meant to make choices. She said no, and yes, and no again, day and night, and for the first time she began to feel the minutes crawling over her like worms. | forest leaving peace restless restlessness time unhappy unicorn unicorns wanting worms | Peter S. Beagle | |
| 9545411 | Walking by yourself in the rain is for college kids who think loneliness makes poets. | poets | Peter S. Beagle | |
| 3190738 | We don't steal from the rich and give to the poor. We steal from the poor because they can't fight back --most of them-- and the rich take from us because they could wipe us out in a day. | last-unicorn outlaws peter-s-beagle robin-hood | Peter S. Beagle | |
| 6558725 | There are people,' he said, 'who give, and there are people who take. There are people who create, people who destroy, and people who don't do anything and drive the other two kinds crazy. It's born in you, whether you give or take, and that's the way you are. Ravens bring things to people. We're like that. It's our nature. We don't like it. We'd much rather be eagles, or swans, or even one of those moronic robins, but we're ravens and ther.. | Peter S. Beagle | ||
| eb3e5e9 | I like being brave well enough, but I will be a lazy coward again if you think that would be better. | coward lazy | Peter S. Beagle | |
| cad752e | He had to hate them, to move the smothering shroud of hatred from himself to them. He closed the door of his room behind him, and almost snatched the drink from under the bed. | Jim Thompson | ||
| 599f4c7 | ethicalities aside, | Jim Thompson | ||
| ea8da9f | Once one survives the trough that comes with the understanding that people are going to go on being stupid and cruel to each other no matter what, probably for ever - if one survives; many people choose suicide at this point instead - then one starts to take the attitude, Oh well, never mind. | Iain M. Banks | ||
| e7529e5 | A flock of butterflies riots in my stomach and steals my breath. | love | Stephenie Meyer | |
| d5a6811 | I couldn't get the words exactly right; I only remembered wishing that Jacob were my brother so that we could love each other without any confusion or pain. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| dc54721 | It was a strange combination to absorb - the everyday concerns of the town doctor stuck in the middle of a discussion of his early days in seventeenth-century London. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 15475fa | We both hear a voice in our head. That's never a good sign | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| d3edc10 | Making decisions was the painful part for me, the part I agonized over. But once the decision was made, I simply followed through--usually with relief that the choice was made. Sometimes the relief was tainted by despair, like my decision to come to Forks. But it was still better than wrestling with the alternatives. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 236d283 | Of course, die for the monster spawn. It was so Bella. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 567a1dc | What were you two doing last night, discussing the national debt? | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| afcd7df | The shadows didn't seem as dark as usual. Not with my personal sun along. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| d1e2454 | Don't be afraid", I murmured. "We belong together." I was abruptly overwhelmed by th truth of my own words. This moment was so perfect, there was no way to boubt it. His arms wrapped around me, holding me against him... It felt like every nerve ending in my body was a live wire. "Forever," he agreed." | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 550e055 | You know the story in the Bible?', Jacob asked suddenly, still reading the blank ceiling. 'The one with the king and the two women fighting over the baby?' 'Sure. King Solomon.' 'That's right. King Solomon.' he repeated. 'And he said, cut the kid in half... but it was only a test. Just to see who would give-up their share to protect it.' 'Yeah. I remember.' He looked back at my face. 'I'm not going to cut you in half anymore, Bella. | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| eea44e3 | It's just that, I know how you're unhappy a lot. And, maybe it doesn't help anything, but I wanted you to know that I'm always here. I won't ever let you down--I promise that you can always count on me. Wow, that does sound corny. But you know that, right? That I would never, ever hurt you?" "Yeah Jake. I know that. And I already do count on you, probably more than you know." | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 7b86e39 | Dear Jacob, | Stephenie Meyer | ||
| 64517f4 | In summary, she did jump off a cliff, but she wasn't trying to kill herself. Bella's all about the extreme sports these days." I flushed and turned my eyes straight ahead, looking after the dark shadow that I could no longer see. I could imagine what he was hearing in Alice's thoughts now. Near-drowings, stalking vampires, werewolf friends . . . "Hm," Edward said curtly, and the casual tone of his voice was gone." | Stephenie Meyer |
