God ain't a he or a she, but a It. But what do it look like? I ask. Don't l.. | Alice Walker | ||
| f4c0859 | I'm Dee Black. I'm the sister of the douchebag known as Daemon." She smiled brightly. "But you probably already know that." "That's he's a douchebag or that he's your brother?" Archer asked innocently. "The answer is yes to both." -- | Jennifer L. Armentrout | ||

But still, no matter how much time passes, no matter what takes place in the interim, there are some things we can never assign .. | Haruki Murakami | ||

| 5ee6d74 | Do you not think that there are things which you cannot understand, and yet which are; that some people see things that others cannot?

| 2134311 | Manic-depression distorts moods and thoughts, incites dreadful behaviors, destroys the basis of rational thought, and too often erodes the desire and will to live. It is an illness that is biological in its origins, yet one that feels psychological in the experience of it, an illness that is unique in conferring advantage and pleasure, yet one that brings in its wake almost unendurable suffering and, not infrequently, suicide. | illness manic-depresison | Kay Redfield Jamison | |

| b6def91 | Of course, everyone's going to freak out when you show up at school." "Freak out? Why?" "Because you're so much hotter now than when you left." She shrugged. "It's true. Must be a vampire thing." Simon looked baffled. "I'm hotter now?" "Sure you are. I mean, look at those two. They're both totally into you."
