    The crownless again shall be king.”

    “I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”

    Doris Lessing
    “There are people in the world all the time who know" the professor said. "But they keep quiet. They just move about quietly, saving the people who know they are in the trap. And then, for the ones who have got out, it's like coming around from chloroform. They realize that all their lives they've been asleep and dreaming. And then it's their turn to learn the rules and the timing. And they become the ones to live quietly in the world, just as human beings might if there were only a few human beings on a planet that had monkeys on it for inhabitants...”

    Jennifer E. Smith
    “Do you think,” she says, the words emerging thickly, “we might have used up all our conversation last night?”
    “Not possible,” says Oliver, and the way he says it, his mouth turned up in a smile, his voice full of warmth, unwinds the knot in Hadley’s stomach. “We haven’t even gotten to the really important stuff yet.”
    “Like what?” she asks, trying to arrange her face in a way that disguises the relief she feels. “Like what’s so great about Dickens?”
    “Not at all,” he says. “More like the plight of koalas. Or the fact that Venice is sinking.” He pauses, waiting for this to register, and when Hadley says nothing, he slaps his knee for emphasis. “Sinking! The whole city! Can you believe it?”
    She frowns in mock seriousness. “That does sound pretty important.”
    “It is,” Oliver insists. “And don’t even get me started on the size of our carbon footprint after this trip. Or the difference between crocodiles and alligators. Or the longest recorded flight of a chicken.”
    “Please tell me you don’t actually know that.”
    “Thirteen seconds,” he says, leaning forward to look past her and out the window. “This is a total disaster. We’re nearly to Heathrow and we haven’t even properly discussed flying chickens.”
    Jennifer E. Smith, The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

    "Very funny," she says. "What is it really?"
    "I'm serious."
    "I don't believe you."
    He laughs, then lowers his mouth so that it's close to her ear. "People who meet in airports are seventy-two percent more likely too fall for each other than people who meet anywhere else.”
    Jennifer E. Smith, The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

  • #28
    Jennifer E. Smith
    “Did you know that people who meet at least three different times within twenty-four hour period are ninety-eight percent more likely to meet again?”

    Jennifer E. Smith
    “He looks at her and smiles. "You're sort of dangerous, you know?"
