    Alexis de Tocqueville
    “Every nation that has ended in tyranny has come to that end by way of good order. It certainly does not follow from this that peoples should scorn public peace, but neither should they be satisfied with that and nothing more. A nation that asks nothing of government but the maintenance of order is already a slave in the depths of its heart; it is a slave of its well-being, ready for the man who will put it in chains.”
    Alexis de Tocqueville

    Zora Neale Hurston
    “Janie stood where he left her for unmeasured time and thought. She stood there until something fell off the shelf inside her. Then she went inside there to see what it was.

Just some thing she had grabbed up to drape her dreams over.”

    Candace L. Talmadge
    “Helen slowly became aware of an unnerving red light. She lifted her head and looked around. The glow bounced off the cold stone walls and intensified quickly. It filled her with thoughts of despair and hopelessness. She tried to shake them off.
    You have what’s mine! Where is it? I want it!
    Helen shuddered violently. She recalled the inner voice that urged
    her to use the stone to keep Prince Harnak from dying. That voice was
    comforting and encouraging. This voice was oppressive and angry and
    beat on her relentlessly.
    “No!” she muttered. “Go away. I have nothing for you or anyone
    else, not even me.”
    The red light flickered out. Only the numbing cold and her utter
    isolation, cheerless companions, remained.”
    Candace L. Talmadge, Stoneslayer: Book One Scandal

    “Strange how things turn out. Two birds, one stone and all that.' McBlane chuckled at his own impromptu joke. 'But things have worked out for the best and now we all get to work together,' he said, and a smile spread across his face as easy as a politician's lie.”
    R.D. Ronald, The Elephant Tree

    You don't get it do you? What people think of you matters more than the reality. Marilyn.

    Despite standing firm at the final hurdle Marilyn was always ready to run the race.

    After answering the question the woman bent down behind the stand out of sight of all, and crossed herself.

    It is amazing what you can learn in prison. Merely through casual conversation Rick had acquired the fundamentals of embezzlement, fraud and armed hold up.

    He wondered at the price of honesty in a grey world whose half tones changed faster than the weather.

    The banality of truth somehow always surprises the news media before they tart it up.

    Life has no bottom. No matter how bad things are or how far one has sunk things can always get worse.

    You could call the Oval Office an information rain shadow.

    In the Philippines, a whole layer of criminals exists who consider that it is their right to rob you unhindered. If you thwart their wicked desires, to their way of thinking you have stolen from them and are evil.

    Don't enjoy it too much for it's what we love that usually kills us.

    The good guys don't always win wars but the winners always make sure that they go down in history as the good guys.

    Didn't your mother ever tell you never to trust a man who doesn't drink?

    She must have been around twenty years old, was tall for a Filipina and possessed long black hair framing her smooth olive face. This specter of loveliness walked with the assurance of the knowingly beautiful. Her crisp and starched white uniform dazzled in the late-afternoon light and highlighted the natural tan of her skin. Everything about her was in perfect order. In short, she was dressed up like a pox doctor’s clerk. Suddenly, she stopped, turned her head to one side and spat comprehensively into the street. The tiny putrescent puddle contrasted strongly with the studied aplomb of its all-too-recent owner, suggesting all manner of disease and decay.”
    John Richard Spencer
