The great corrupter of public man is the ego. Looking at the mirror distracts one's attention from the problem.
Dean Acheson
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the
possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.
Douglas Adams
Look at a book. A book is the right size to be a book. They're solar-powered. If you drop them, they keep on being a book. You
can find your place in microseconds. Books are really good at being books, and no matter what happens, books will survive.
Douglas Adams
I find that a great part of the information I have was acquired by looking up something and finding something else on the way.
Franklin P. Adams
If you look at films about becoming a man, coming-of-age movies are made with 12-, 16-, 40-, 50-year-olds... For a guy to
feel like he's a 100 percent grown-up is almost like giving up. Like admitting that you're on your way into the grave.
Kevin Bacon
For now. But if I ever decide you're useless, you are a dead man.
To be killed by you is to be desired more
than a life excluded from your service.
Bravo.
Her Imperial Viciousness laughed with genuine feeling. Bravo!
Seeing Redd
Frank Beddor
Only the previous day, Arch had found him in a spirit-dance corral, blistering
the creatures to the point of death, such was his need to touch and destroy.
Seeing Redd
Frank Beddor
Well now,
the scholar went on, I'm just an old fuddy-duddy who could use a tan, so you needn't grant my opinion any authority, but I
consider the queendom lucky that a handful of Milliners and their children lived incognito among the population during Redd's tyranny.

She generally gave herself very good advice, (though she very seldom followed it).
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland &
Through the Looking-Glass
Lewis Carroll
And now I'm looking at you,
he said,
and you're asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the
thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before - bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle
and Alec, but it took years to do it - but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.
City of Glass
Cassandra Clare
Malachi scowled.
I don't remember the Clave inviting you into the Glass City, Magnus Bane.
They didn't,
Magnus said.
Your wards are down.
Really?
the Consul's voice dripped sarcasm.
I hadn't noticed.
Magnus looked concerned.
That's terrible. Someone should have told you.
He glanced at Luke.
Tell him the wards are down.
City of Glass
Cassandra Clare
Globalization means we have to re-examine some of our ideas, and look at ideas from other countries,
from other cultures, and open ourselves to them. And that's not comfortable for the average person.
Herbie Hancock
My love, you are driving the entire world mad. The nightingales are committing suicide one by one out of jealousy of
your voice. The roses took one glance at your beauty and folded themselves from shame. The trees now only whisper your name
and the sky hasn't stopped crying since you looked up. Have pity on us, my love. We have already broken all the mirrors and
glass out of fear that you will forget us and fall in love with yourself once you see what we all cannot stop seeing.
Kamand Kojouri
To the people who look at the stars and wish, Rhys.
Rhys clinked his glass against mine.
To the stars who listen-and the dreams that are answered.

a youth she's content to leave behind....

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone
else in her family...

a feeling of control over her destiny...

and why she shouldn't
take it personally...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
where to go...
be it to her best friend's kitchen table...
or a charming inn in the woods...
when her soul needs soothing...
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she can and can't accomplish in a day...
a month...and a year...
Pamela Redmond Satran
