    “But this is my fucking life! My mom died and some reporter wanted a story.” I heaved for air. “And all I cared about was playing in some game. Like that was what mattered. She was dying, and I was mad. I’m still fucking pissed. Criminals survive every day. Murderers and rapists and lunatics. But not her.”
    “Life, in all the years I’ve been living it, son, doesn’t make a lick of sense where that’s concerned.”
    ― J. Rose Black, Chasing Headlines

    “Water continued to explain about the life of the tree. “Trees can be as big below the ground as they are above it. And there are mother trees in the forests—these are the oldest trees. They have the most connections with the other trees. Trees communicate with each other and look after the young trees by sending them nutrients through their roots.”
    ― Ellen J. Lewinberg, Joey and His Friend Water

    “Charlie said your friend’s disappeared,” chirped Wendy.
    “No, he hasn’t.” Adam denied it. “He’s in the house. Now, look, what’s all this you’ve been telling them?”
    “Nothing, I haven’t told them anything.” Charlie looked drunk.
    “He said you’ve turned your friend into a crayfish,” insisted Wendy.
    “He’s always making little jokes like that, and you fell for it. How am I supposed to do that, for heaven’s sake?” Adam was angry.
    “With your little book you found. What’s that under your arm?”
    ― Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

    “George’s utterance of the nest and the trap belonged to a bigger mystery she did not yet understand. One day I will, she promised herself. She would stake her life that those last words from her son would be solved by her. They were steppingstones into… whatever the wind and the stars and the valiant trees held for her.”

    “Together, the bells and Dog sang a song that was more than sound and power. It was the song of the earth, the moon, the stars, the sea, and the sky, of Life and Death and all that was and would be. It was the song of the Charter, the song that had bound Orannis in the long ago, the song that sought to bind the Destroyer once again.”

    “He said, “Sir, we are in a very bad position! We have lost many soldiers KIA (Killed in Action) and many more are wounded. Sir, today is the twenty third of March, and I suggest that we get the hell out of the entire Hoa Binh area before we all end up as dead men!”

    Laura Hillenbrand
    “Dignity is as essential to human life as water, food, and oxygen. The stubborn retention of it, even in the face of extreme physical hardship, can hold a man’s soul in his body long past the point at which the body should have surrendered it. The loss of it can carry a man off as surely as thirst, hunger, exposure, and
    asphyxiation, and with greater cruelty. In places like Kwajalein, degradation could be as lethal as a bullet.”
    ― Laura Hillenbrand, Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption
