    “     Illicit flight Alfa Bravo Charlie quickly reached a predetermined altitude and stopped dead. The passengers on board screamed the way people do on fairground rides. The shuttle hesitated momentarily and then shot forward accelerating rapidly to reach a blistering 145,222 miles per hour. They were in a Mach 22 situation. The cries from on-board could not be heard from the ground. Neither did anyone in the great metropolis of Llar witness the bright blue vapour trail the craft left behind in its wake. It was after all overcast and raining heavily.”

    Candace L. Talmadge
    “Blinking hard, she watched two Toltec nobles disembark from the aircraft and rush up the steps. One of them argued with the priest who had
    proclaimed her death sentence. The taller of the two, wearing what she
    dimly registered as the uniform of the Generals Council, demanded the
    keys to her shackles.

    She turned her head from side to side, trying to watch him as he
    worked to free her. “Who are you, my lord? Why are you here?”
    “You sent me a lecture not long ago about your duty as a healer,
    Lieutenant,” he replied, on one knee behind her to unlock the manacles
    around her ankles. “I am your father.”
    Candace L. Talmadge, Stoneslayer: Book One Scandal

    Francine  Rivers
    “I was learning to recognize when God was speaking through someone. He repeats himself. He says it over and over because we are so stubborn, stupid and unwilling. And even scared. Even when he tells us not to be afraid, we set our minds about it, worrying and fretting about every little thing. I was shaken by what God expected us to do.”
    Francine Rivers, The Last Sin Eater

    Truman Capote
    “But I know what I like.' She smiled, and et the cat drop to the floor. 'It's like Tiffany's,'she said. 'Not that I give a hoot about jewellery. Diamonds, yes. But it's tacky to wear diamonds before you're forty; and even that's risky.”
