To sell your soul is the easiest thing in the world. That's what everybody does every hour of his life. If I asked you to keep your soul - would you understand why that's much harder? ↗

But all fairytales have rules, and perhaps it’s their rules that actually distinguish one fairytale from the other. These rules never need to be understood. They only need to be followed. If not, what they promise won’t come true. ↗

It was not despair, but it seemed to her as if life were passing by, leaving its promises broken and unfulfilled. Yet there were other days when she listened, was led on and deceived by fresh promises which her youth had held out to her. ↗

The best promises forever seem to be made by amnesiacs. ↗

Is Lisa going to the prom?' I shelved my worries for the moment. 'I don't know, Mom. We don't talk about the You-Know-What. We made a pact.' You could go together, if you didn't want to mess with dates and things.' I don't want to mess with the prom at all, Mom.' She ignored me, placidly eating popcorn, piece by piece.'Some girls in my high school class did that and had a wonderful time. They weren't lesbians or anything. Not that it would matter if they were.' That's nice, Mom. I'm glad you're so open-minded.' I grabbed my Coke and the popcorn bowl and headed for the stairs, because I could go my whole life without ever hearing my mother talk about lesbians again. Maybe you could take Justin to the prom,' she called after me, laughter in her voice. 'He is such a hottie.' Shoot me now. ↗

Prom night can be a special night, if you let it be. I know you think it's for losers and something that popular kids do because they are boring people with porcelain hearts who don't know what it means to be lonely. But you're wrong. Prom is a chance for everyone to try oral sex. Go for it. ↗

زندگی میں ایک چیز ہوتی ہے جسے کمرامائز کہتے ہیں. پرسکون زندگی گزارنے کے لئیے اسکی ضرورت پڑتی ہے.جس چیز کو تم بدل نہ سکو اسکے ساتھ کمپرومائز کر لیا کرو مگر اپنی کسی بھی خواہش کو جنون مت بنایا کرو. زندگی میں کچھ چیزیں اسي ہیں جو ہمیں نہیں مل سکتيں. چاہے ہم روۓ چلائيں یا بچوں کی طرح ایڑیاں ‏رگڑیں کیونکے وہ کھخ دوسرے کے لیے ہوتی ہیں جیسے تمہارے پیرنٹس کسی اور کے پیرنٹس ہیں. تمہارا گھر کس اور کا گھر ہے مگر اسکا یہ مطلب نہیں کہ ہوتا کہ زندگی میں ہمارے لیے کچھ ہوتا ہی نہیں. کچہ نا کچھ ہمارے لیے بھی ہوتا ہے. ↗

I would have to go back into my past and deal with Adrian. My philosopher friend, who gazed on life and decided that any responsible, thinking individual should have the right to reject this gift that had never been asked for - and whose noble gesture re-emphasised with each passing decade the compromise and littleness that most lives consist of. 'Most lives': my life. ↗

In the West we cling to the past like limpets. In Haiti the present is the axis of all life. As in Africa, past and future are but distant measures of the present, and memories are as meaningless as promises. ↗

I looked him in the eye. “I will always love you.” Then I plunged the stake into his chest. ↗
