There was something terrible, but also something sad and melancholy in this long cry uttered by the Russian infantry as they staged an attack. As it crossed the cold water, it lost its fervour. Instead of valour or gallantry, you could hear the sadness of a soul parting with everything that it loved, calling on its nearest and dearest to wake up, to lift their head from their pillows and hear for the last time the voice of a father, a husband, a son or a brother... ↗

Brewing is mentioned rarely in accounts of the Industrial Revolution. Temperance pressures meant it was impolitic for brewers to boast of their achievements and innovations, and few accurate records exist of exactly how it performed in the 19th Century compared to those glamorous, sexy industries like coal mining and steel making. ↗

Heisenbergs uncertainty principle states that the mere act of observing something inherently disturbs it's state. So Annika perhaps instead of trying to quantify our love, we should accept the warm embrace of it's perfection. ↗

So what are you doing around here?" I ask, feeling all jittery, but this time it's in a good way. "Oh, I was just in the area." he says vaguely. "I thought I'd take Welly for a walk..." He trails off and stuffs his hands in his pockets. Those butterflies are going crazy in there. ↗

Fifteen-year-old girls produce children with sixteen-year-old boys in the backseat of cars and in the stairwells of apartment buildings. Why can't two loving adults who have contemplated parenthood and are prepared to offer love, patience, and devotion come up with enough chromosomal matter to stick together and create a child? ↗

She had seen what it cost him and her heart quickened with compassion. For that alone, she might have loved him almost. ↗

Most of us believe we can spot a drowning person when we see one. But we always make the mistake of thinking that drowning only involves what. believe it or not, you have missed quite a number of drowned and drowning people. Some of us are thought to save some one drowning in water, most of us can spot that too, but none of us has been thought to see the other kinds of drowners, nor how to save them. ↗

Ale to, co naprawdę mnie przyciągnęło. to cecha, która pociąga większość dziewczyn - był emocjonalnie martwy. A ja wierzyłam, że mogę go naprawić. Myślałam, że potrafię się przebić przez twardą fasadę i odnaleźć prawdziwego Jacka, wrażliwego mężczyznę, ukrywającego się pod tymi wszystkimi tatuażami.Właśnie dlatego, że nigdy nie pokazał po sobie krztyny wrażliwości czy emocji, wierzyłam, że jest najbardziej czułym i wrażliwym człowiekiem na ziemi. Wierzyłam, że ja - i tylko ja - jestem w stanie skruszyć jego pancerz i zamienić go w niegrzecznego ukochanego, o jakim zawsze śniłam. Jakże niedorzeczne! Teraz wiem, że jeżeli umawiasz się z kimś, by go ulepszyć, nie jesteś wcale w związku miłosnym. Jesteś po prostu pielęgniarką. Prosta prawda, a jednocześnie najtrudniejsza lekcja, której doświadcza kobieta - dostajesz to, co widzisz. ↗
