    “There are so many wild animals on the property. It makes the ashram Noah’s Arkish. All the wildlife is intact; watching the animals adds to the safety and rescue aspects of the ashram. The ashram’s pristine environment along with
its celibacy policy and abundance of food is like a Garden of Eden. Like starting over! You forget about sex and spending your whole paycheck on organic apples.”

    Author Harold Phifer
    “I ended up sitting right next to Sexy Patty. The placement wasn’t on purpose. (I needed the hands of God, not a girlfriend.) Since I was dealing with my own issues, I failed to notice that she was clenching a napkin and sweating profusely from head to toe. Nonetheless, she looked hotter than a fever.”

    “When the light reached its zenith, the group of 1,000 Travelers down below could no longer be seen.

    Robert Reid
    “My Lady, one of the rumours in the inns gives the wizard a name. Adun, a disinherited Aramin child from an ancient myth, supposedly arisen after hundreds of years from his grave in the Doran Mountains. It stuck me as a strange coincidence that the child’s name was so like the name of the Captain of the Swan.”

    Thomas Harris
    “They waited for the elevator. " Most people love butterflies and hate moth," he said. "But moths are more interesting - more engaging."
    "They're destructive."
    "Some are, a lot are, but they live in all kinds of ways. Just like we do." Silence for one floor.
    "There's a moth, more than one in fact, that lives only on tears," he offered. "That's all they eat or drink."
    "What kind of tears? Whose tears?"
    "The tears of large land mammals, about our size.
    The old definition of moth was, 'anything that gradually, silently eats, consumes, or wages any other thing.'
    It was a verb for destruction too. . . .”
    ― Thomas Harris, The Silence of the Lambs

    “What a group we were. A pregnant girl in love, a kindly shoemaker, an orphan boy, a blind girl, and a giantess who complained that everyone was in her way when she herself took up the most room. And me, a lonely girl who missed her family and begged for a second chance.”
