| a50beee | I can run fast when I want to run fast, and I've always been good at destroying things. | James Frey | ||
| 860f531 | I know a bit about the loss of dignity. I know that when you take away a man's dignity there is a hole, a deep black hole filled with despair, humiliation and self-hatred, filled with emptiness, shame and disgrace, filled with loss and isolation and Hell. It's a deep, dark, horrible fucking hole, and that hole is where people like me live our sad-ass, fucked-up, dignity-free, inhuman lives, and where we die, alone, miserable, wasted and for.. | James Frey | ||
| b052eae | The sun rises in a clear sky that moves from black to gray to white to deep, pure crystal blue. One in Georgia packs his things he's going to take a bus. Four in Mexico walk across scorched earth water in packs on their back. Two in Indiana best friends coming together they pack their best clothes while their parents wait to take them to the airport. One in Canada drives south. Sixty from China in a cargo container sail east. Four in New Yo.. | James Frey | ||

| 4f9fcd1 | More than anything, I dream of love, crazy crazy mad love. Not the love of rings and white dresses and churches, but of lust and insanity, the love where you can't stop touching, kissing, licking, sucking, and fucking. The love that breaks hearts, starts wars, ruins lives, the love that sears itself into your soul, that you can feel every time your heart beats, that scorches your memory and comes back to you whenever you're alone and it's q.. | James Frey | ||
| 8a06141 | Los Angeles is a lonely city. Everyone is focused on advancement success fame and money, it is hard to adjust to a culture based on always wanting more, on never being satisfied. | James Frey | ||
| 630da9b | Learn to deal with that. It's the way of the world. You fight and struggle and work your ass off and then you die. Deal with that. | James Frey | ||
| b18bd35 | I can feel blood dripping from the wounds on my face and I can feel my heart beating and I can feel the weight of my life beginning to drop and I realize why dawn is called mourning. | james-frey | James Frey | |

| bb90c3b | One of his first initiatives for the church, for instance, was to set up a "serious evangelistic campaign" that would be carried on throughout his first full year. "This campaign," he wrote in a letter of recommendation, "shall be carried out by 25 evangelistic teams, each consisting of a captain and at least three other members. Each team shall be urged to bring in at least five new members within the church year. The team that brings in t.. | Donald T. Phillips | ||
| 008ba8d | The marches in Albany concentrated on city hall where they had little leverage and no votes. "All of our marches in Albany," said Martin, "were to the city hall trying to make them negotiate, where if we had centered our protests at the businesses in the city, [we could have] made the merchants negotiate. And if you can pull them around, you pull the political power structure because the political power structure listens to the economic pow.. | Donald T. Phillips | ||

| 0073698 | Mog-ur has been spending all day and half the night in the place of the spirits. It must be a ceremony. While Ayla was gone, he wouldn't go near it; now he hardly ever comes out. When he does, he's so absentminded he forgets to eat. Sometimes he forgets to eat while he's eating. | Jean M. Auel | ||
| b06364f | Incluso cuando vuelves a un mismo lugar, ya no es el mismo. | Jean M. Auel | ||
| ea19554 | It was a tense moment. If Norg refused them, they would have no choice but to return the long distance back to their cave. It would be a grave breach of propriety, but to allow Ayla entrance would be tantamount to accepting her as a woman of the Clan; at least it would give Brun a clear edge. Norg looked again at his mog-ur, then at the powerful one-eyed man who was The Mog-ur, then back at the man who was leader of the clan ranked first of.. | Jean M. Auel | ||

| b3495d9 | Now the Spirit of the Cave Lion wants me to leave." She looked up at the tall man beside her. "Do you think we'll ever come back?" "No," he said. There was a hollow ring to his voice. He was looking in the small cave, but he was seeing another place and another time. "Even if you go back to the same place, it's not the same." | Jean M. Auel | ||

| 7fa649f | Serenio had been right, his love was too much for most people to bear. His anger, let loose, could not be contained until it had run its course either. Growing up, he had once wreaked such havoc with righteous anger that he had caused someone serious injury. All his emotions were too powerful. Even his mother had felt forced to put a distance between them, and she had watched with silent sympathy when friends backed off because he clung too.. | Jean M. Auel | ||
| 6e0cf90 | Then, slowly, it filled her. An urge, like none she had ever known, rose out of her depths, grew in her throat, and burst from her mouth in a primal scream of victory. She did it! At that moment, in a lonely valley in the middle of a vast continent, somewhere near the undefined boundary of the desolate northern loess steppes and the wetter continental steppes to the south, a young woman stood with a bone club in her hand--and felt powerful... | Jean M. Auel | ||

| d25b224 | Your wolf doesn't need to hate what he kills. It would be easier if we could kill without compunction, like your wolf does, but then, we wouldn't be human. | Jean M. Auel | ||
| 2b2dee0 | It wasn't exultation she felt, not the excitement of a first kill or even the satisfaction of overcoming a powerful beast. It was something deeper, more humbling. It was the knowledge that she had overcome herself. | Jean M. Auel | ||
