    “Welcome to Fight Club. The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club!

Sixth rule: the fights are bare knuckle. No shirt, no shoes, no weapons. Seventh rule: fights will go on as long as they have to.

    William Shakespeare
    “If I profane with my unworthiest hand
    This holy shrine, the gentle fine is this:
    My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
    To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.

    Juliet:
    Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
    Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
    For saints have hands that pilgrims' hands do touch,
    And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.

    Romeo:
    Have not saints lips, and holy palmers too?

    Juliet:
    Ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.

    Romeo:
    O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do;
    They pray, grant thou, lest faith turn to despair.

    Juliet:
    Saints do not move, though grant for prayers' sake.

    Romeo:
    Then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.
    Thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.

    Juliet:
    Then have my lips the sin that they have took.

    Romeo:
    Sin from thy lips? O trespass sweetly urged!
    Give me my sin again.

    Juliet:
    You kiss by the book.”
    William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

    Maggie Stiefvater
    “I fell for her in summer, my lovely summer girl,
    From summer she is made, my lovely summer girl,
    I’d love to spend a winter with my lovely summer girl,
    But I’m never warm enough for my lovely summer girl,
    It’s summer when she smiles, I’m laughing like a child,
    It’s the summer of our lives; we’ll contain it for a while
    She holds the heat, the breeze of summer in the circle of her hand
    I’d be happy with this summer if it’s all we ever had.”
    Maggie Stiefvater, Shiver
