    N.H. Kleinbaum
    “So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do. It also won’t do in your essays.”
    N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

    Marissa Meyer
    “When Kai fell silent, she risked a glance at him. He was staring at her hands [which she always holds mechanic gloves over to hide her...you know, cyborg hands]...
    "Do you ever take those off?" he asked.
    "No."
    Kai tilted his head, peering at her as if he could see right through to the metal plate in her head..."I think you should go to the ball with me."
    She clutched her fingers..."Stars," she muttered. "Didn't you already asked me that?"
    "I'm hoping for a more favorable answer this time and I seem to be getting more desperate by the minute."
    "How charming."
    Kai's lips twitched. "Please?"
    "Why?"
    "Why not?"
    "I mean, why me?"
    Kai hooked his thumbs on his pockets. "So if my escape hover breaks down, I'll have someone to fix it?”

    Marissa Meyer
    “Finally, Cinder gulped. "I'm sorry I had to --" She gestured at the unconscious wedding coordinator, then waved her hand like shaking it off. "But she'll be fine, I swear. Maybe a little nauseous when she comes to, but otherwise...And your android...Nainsi, right? I had to disable her. And her backup processor. But any mechanic can return her to defaults in about six seconds, so..." She rubbed anxiously at her wrist. "Oh, and we ran into your captain of the guard in the hallway, and a few other guards, and I may have scared him and he's, um, unconscious. Also. But, really, they'll all be fine. I swear." Her lips twitched into a brief, nervous smile. "Um...hello, again. By the way.”
    Marissa Meyer, Cress
