Oh, the boots were on the other eight feet now.


Jonathan Stroud


#bartimaeus #bartimaeus-trilogy #humor #humor

she walked rather quickly; she liked to be active, though at times she gave an impression of repose that was at once static and evocative. This was because she knew few words and believed in none, and in the world she was rather silent, contributing just her share of urbane humor with a precision that approached meagreness. But at the moment when strangers tended to grow uncomfortable in the presence of this economy she would seize the topic and rush off with it, feverishly surprised with herself--then bring it back and relinquish it abruptly, almost timidly, like an obedient retriever, having been adequate and something more.


F. Scott Fitzgerald

I loved you so much once. I did. More than anything in the whole wide world. Imagine that. What a laugh that is now. Can you believe it? We were so intimate once upon a time I can't believe it now. The memory of being that intimate with somebody. We were so intimate I could puke. I can't imagine ever being that intimate with somebody else. I haven't been.


Raymond Carver

She has no regrets; she knows now he could never have made her happy, even though he has, apparently, joined AA, is doing better. But sobriety is his journey, not hers; he needs to do it for himself, alone. Still, she misses him hugely, doesn't feel ready for another relationship yet. But as time passes, she hopes that she might be, eventually, with someone new, easier, kinder.


Sarah Rayner

...and so will the world end, I think, a victim of love rather than hate. For love's ever been the more destructive weapon, sure.


Stephen King

I fell in love with her the moment she was late, though neither one of us knew it at the time because she hadn’t arrived yet.

How quick and rushing life can sometimes seem, when at the same time it's so slow and sweet and everlasting.
