| 6e750e1 | Peculiar or not, it is my idea of pleasure. Why, why else do you lead this life you don't enjoy it? Don't talk of duty to me; you men always have some high-sounding excuse for indulging yourselves. You go gallivanting over the earth, climbing mountains, looking for the sources of the Nile; and expect women to sit dully at home embroidering. I embroider very badly. I think I would excavate rather well. | Elizabeth Peters | ||

| 5cabe7a | A week feels like a year when you're seventeen and in love. A twenty minute drive might as well be an ocean.

| 5aefc1a | Do you practice the laugh, or is it a natural talent? Naw, I'm betting you practice." Jean-Claude's face twisted. I couldn't decide if he was trying not to laugh, or not to frown. Maybe both. I affected some people that way. The laughter seeped out of her face, very human, until only her eyes sparkled. There was nothing funny about the look in those twinkling eyes. It was the sort of look a cat gives a small bird. Her voice lifted at t.. | Laurell K. Hamilton | ||

| a700039 | You were happy last night. This morning is a different story." "You think I have a hangover. I don't. Well a little headache, but not much. Just let this be a warning to you if you keep me from sleeping again tonight." "I kept you from sleeping? I kept you from sleeping?" he repeated incredulously.

| a359604 | Here is the point about myself and my co-thinkers. Our belief is not a belief. Our principles are not a faith. We do not hold our convictions dogmatically.

A bouquet of flowers gathered from the various bushes and shrubs scattered around the island lay on the blanket beside me, a small length of rope wound around their stems. I found T.J. down at the shore. "Someone's been checking the calendar." He grinned. "I didn't want to miss Valentine's Day." I kissed him. "You're sweet to me." Pulling me closer, he said, "It's not hard, Anna." I stared into T.J.'.. | Tracey Garvis-Graves | ||

"Set off for Ashtead at this hour, when I have been traveling for two days?" said Sir Horace. "Now, do, my boy, have a little common sense! Why should I?"

They express a preference for 'natural' methods of population limitation, and a n.. | religion | Richard Dawkins | |

The accompanying utterances, though, were varied. I heard everything from "Please no" (Maggie), to "Jesus Christ" (Wallace), to "Stop it or die" (I'm assuming it's obvious)." | camera photo auden eli | Sarah Dessen | |
