I have rooms full of little dongly things and don't want any more. Half the little dongly things I've got, I don't even
know what gizmo they're for. More importantly, half the gizmos I've got, I don't know where their little dongly thing is.
Douglas Adams
I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.
Douglas Adams
I wanted to be a writer-performer like the Pythons. In fact, I wanted to be John
Cleese, and it took me some time to realise that the job was, in fact, taken.
Douglas Adams
The usual method of finding a little dongly thing that actually matches a gizmo I want to use

Douglas Adams
All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation,
not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation.
John Adams
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.

I was thinking about the first time I ever saw you,
he said,
and how after that I couldn't forget you. I wanted to, but I
couldn't stop myself. I forced Hodge to let me be the one who came to find you and bring you back to the Institue. And even back then,
in that stupid coffee shop, when I saw you sitting on that couch with Simon, even then that felt wrong to me-- I should have been the
one sitting with you. The one who made you laugh like that. I couldn't get rid of that feeling. That it should have been me. And the
more I knew you, the more I felt it--it had never been like that for me before. I'd always wanted a girl and then gotten to know her and not
wanted her anymore, but with you the feeling just got stronger and stronger until that night when you showed up at Renwick's and I knew.
City of Glass
Cassandra Clare
You could have had anything else in the world, and you asked for me.
She smiled up at him. Filthy as he was, covered in blood and dirt, he was the most beautiful thing she'd ever seen.
But I don't want anything else in the world.
City of Glass
Cassandra Clare
To sit back and say, Oh, we're going to let the government do whatever they want, right or wrong,
is giving up.
Michael Franti
I don't like giving up hits and stuff, but I try not to show it. I don't want the hitter to see that something bothers me.
Jacob deGrom
I feel I could be a role model to other Hispanic gymnasts interested in the sport, but I also want them to
understand the importance of being focused, determined, and not giving up, despite all the struggles.
Laurie Hernandez
My best career decision was probably not giving up when I wanted to. God as well as my family and friends were there for me during my toughest times.
