| 47768cf | The Senate was the home of governmental sclerosis. | Joseph Flynn | ||
| caa6b20 | I was made for the library, not the classroom. The classroom was a jail of other people's interests. The library was open, unending, free. | Ta-Nehisi Coates | ||
| c6056f4 | Poor George, he can't help it -- he was born with a silver foot in his mouth. | Ann Richards | ||
| 5e7e1d1 | I was only beginning to be wary of my own humanity, of my own hurt and anger--I didn't yet realize that the boot on your neck is just as likely to make you delusional as it is to ennoble. | Ta-Nehisi Coates | ||
| b3b9d63 | But this girl with the long dreads revealed something else--that love could be soft and understanding; that, soft or hard, love was an act of heroism. | Ta-Nehisi Coates | ||
| 72f0e5f | Across the Universe takes place entirely on a generation spaceship, and, aside from a brief introduction, is not on Earth at all. But obviously, something had to have been happening on Earth. Something that would stem from the world that made the Financial Resource Exchange (FRX) and phydus. | atu-series books the-body-electric | Beth Revis | |
| d2f9d02 | Yo solo puedo pensar en las estrellas. Es como si hubiese perdido un pedazo de alma y ese vacio se hubiera llenado con la luz de un millon de estrellas. Son todo lo que he sonado jamas; son lo que nunca hubiera esperado. | Beth Revis | ||
| 3a48278 | We wanted to protect some planets that the Empire wanted to destroy. Not outright, not even the Empire's that evil. | Beth Revis | ||
| 82de21f | Oh, I would probably have raised more hell. | Ann Richards | ||
| 9d60788 | Y entonces comprendo la verdad mas importante de esta nave. Por mucho que corra, no puedo escapar de ella. | Beth Revis | ||
| 61fef8f | Power was passion. That hunger - it was desire. A voracious need and longing to consume, to become one. | Beth Revis | ||

| e4ab3cf | Lo unico que nos separa es la lluvia. Y luego ya no hay nada que nos separe. Mis labios se funden con los suyos. Una gota de lluvia se desliza por la comisura de mi boca. Sus labios y los mios se abren. La gota me cae en la lengua y se pierde en la suya. Estoy empapado. Deberia tener frio, pero me invade su calor. La envuelvo con los brazos y la atraigo hacia mi con fuerza. Quiero aplastarla contra mi. No quiero que esto acabe nunca. | Beth Revis | ||
| fba432f | Para mi el amor no era mas real que ese dios al que adora Amy. Siempre he oido hablar del amor como algo semejante a los ritos religiosos: historias que contaba la gente de Tierra Solar para sentirse mejor en el mundo tan imperfecto que habian colaborado a crear. Pero ahora... -Es preferible haber amado y perdido a no haber amado nunca -afirma Victria. | Beth Revis | ||
| de117c2 | The President called it the "Epitome of the American dream." Daddy called it the "unholy alliance of business and government." But all it really was, was America giving up. Bailing out in order to join the Financial Resource Exchange. A multinational alliance focused on one thing: profit. Fund global medical care to monopolize vaccines. Back unified currency to collect planet-wide interest. And provide the resources needed for a select grou.. | amy-martin atu-series beth-revis centuries dreams earth reality time | Beth Revis | |
| e885a25 | El poder es tener la fuerza y ser capaz de transmitirsela a otros. Ser un lider no es obligar a los demas a que te hagan mas fuerte, sino estar dispuesto a repartir tu fuerza para que los demas puedan mantenerse en pie por si solos. | Beth Revis | ||
| e6f74a8 | La oigo sollozar al otro lado de la puerta. Paso el pulgar por el escaner y la puerta se abre antes de darme cuenta de lo que he hecho: entrar sin permiso en una habitacion. Pero eso no importa; lo unico que importa es que Amy esta tumbada en la cama, sollozando con tanta fuerza que todo su cuerpo se estremece. -?Que te pasa? -pregunto corriendo hacia ella. Amy levanta la vista para mirarme. Sus ojos parecen de jade derretido. Gimotea y se .. | Beth Revis | ||

| 8bcc337 | Even when you are silent, even when you block out all noise, your body is still a cacophony of life. Mine is not. It is the silence that drives me mad. The silence that drives the nightmares to me. Because | Beth Revis | ||
| 7ff230a | You lived aloof, maintaining to the end your magnificent disdain. | Anna Akhmatova | ||
| 842723a | Already madness lifts its wing to cover half my soul. | Anna Akhmatova | ||
| dbf87fa | As the dreamscape around me grows clearer, I slip further away from it. The mind is a magical thing, I'm discovering. A dreamscape is made of thought and is wider than the sky, able to grow large enough to fit not just our own world, but every possibility and impossibility beyond it. Once I quit thinking of it as being forced into the laws of physics, it's easy to manipulate the dreamscape into anything I want. I don't know how I know all t.. | dreamscape mind reverie | Beth Revis | |

| dc3292c | ordeno a todo el mundo que se fuera a casa. Y a veces, la casa de uno no es un lugar, sino una persona. | Beth Revis | ||
| e96fc22 | Words are powerful things. They can start--or end--wars. People believe in words. They are the fundamental expression of ourselves, the division between human and not, the means by which we learn. And while people use words to teach, to express art, to proclaim truths, at the most basic level, people use words to simply say: I am here. | Beth Revis | ||

| fccff13 | Read. Read them all. Read the books you love, and try to read books you don't. Read the genres you love, but sometimes also read a book outside your comfort zone. Read voraciously. | Beth Revis | ||
| dfd88c7 | Prefiero morir rapidamente con el sabor de la libertad en los labios que hacerme vieja tratando de ignorar los muros que me aprisionan. | Beth Revis | ||

| f7ac843 | Orion says it's human nature." It's not, I think. "It's not," Victria says. I look at her, surprised. "If it was, I'd be like them," she says, nodding at the couple by the steps. Well, frex. She's right. "But I'm not." | Beth Revis | ||
| 49614fa | A week ago, I would have snorted at those words. Love was no more real than the "god" Amy worshipped. I'd heard of "love" in the same context that I heard of those religious fairy tales--as stories Sol-Earth people used to tell to make themselves feel better about the imperfect world they helped to create. But now..." | Beth Revis | ||
| 7a37bb4 | Other species have interstellar travel," Jyn protested. "That didn't just come from humans. The humans never would have figured it out if not for--" Burta" | Beth Revis | ||
