    “Go ahead. You're not going to walk in on anyone. I'm home alone."

    "The whole night?"

    Immediately, I realized it might not have been the smartest thing to say. "Dorothea will be coming soon." That was a lie. Dorothea was long gone. It was close to midnight.

    "Dorothea?"

    "Our housekeeper. She's old- but strong. Very strong." I tried to squeeze past him. Unsuccessfully.

    “Do not stand at my grave and weep,
    I am not there, I do not sleep.
    I am in a thousand winds that blow,
    I am the softly falling snow.
    I am the gentle showers of rain,
    I am the fields of ripening grain.
    I am in the morning hush,
    I am in the graceful rush
    Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
    I am the starshine of the night.
    I am in the flowers that bloom,
    I am in a quiet room.
    I am in the birds that sing,
    I am in each lovely thing.
    Do not stand at my grave bereft
    I am not there. I have not left.”
    Mary Elizabeth Frye

    “You think fairy tales are only for girls? Here's a hint - ask yourself who wrote them. I assure you, it wasn't just the women. It's the great male fantasy - all it takes is one dance to know that she's the one. All it takes is the sound of her song from the tower, or a look at her sleeping face. And right away you know - this is the girl in your head, sleeping or dancing or singing in front of you. Yes, girls want their princes, but boys want their princesses just as much. And they don't want a very long courtships. They want to know immediately.”
    David Levithan, Dash & Lily's Book of Dares

    “Who’s Lily?”

    “Some girl.”

    “Ooh... a girl!”

    “Boomer, we’re not in third grade anymore. You don’t say, ‘Ooh... a girl!’”

    “What? You fucking her?”

    “Okay, Boomer, you’re right. I liked ‘Ooh... a girl!’ much more than that.
    Let’s stick with ‘Ooh... a girl!”

    “Boomer took bites of all six varieties, contemplating each one and "guring out the order in which he would then eat them. “I like the
    brown one and the lighter brown one and the almost-brown one. I’m not so sure about the minty one. But really, I think the lebkuchen spice
    one is the best.”

    “The what?”

    “The lebkuchen spice one.” He held it up for me. “This one.”

    “You’re making that up. What’s a lebkuchen spice? It sounds like a cross between a Keebler elf and a stripper. Hello, my name ees
    Lebkuchen Spice, and I vant to show you my cooooookies...”

    “Don’t be rude!” Boomer protested. As if the cookie might be offended.”

    “I love snow for the same reason I love Christmas: It brings people together while time stands still. Cozy couples lazily meandered the streets and children trudged sleds and chased snowballs. No one seemed to be in a rush to experience anything other than the glory of the day, with each other, whenever and however it happened.”

    “I'm not going to wear a red dress," she said.
    "It would look stunning, My Lady," she called.

    “I'd thought once, actually, of taking your mind, if you asked. I'd thought I could help you fall asleep at night."
    He opened his mouth to say something. Shut it again. His face closed for a moment, his unreadable mask falling into place. He spoke softly. "But that wouldn't be fair; for after I slept you'd be left awake, with no one to help you sleep.”

    “Then come here," he said, a bit redundantly, as he had already pulled her with him into an armchair and curled her up in his arms. "Tell me what I can do to help you feel better."
    Fire looked into his quiet eyes, touched his dear, familiar face, and considered the question. Well. I always like when you kiss me.
    "Do you?"
    You're good at it.
    "Well," he said. "That's lucky, because I'll always be kissing you.”
    Kristin Cashore, Fire
