“The bar staff and croupiers all wore black with the same green triangle logo emblazoned on their shirts, and contact lenses which made their eyes shine an eerie, vibrant green. The bar optics glowed with the same green light, the intensity of which was linked to the music.

“يبدو أنه مع الأطفال ركز على اعتبار الفشل عاملا لا يقل أهمية عن النجاح . عامل ضروري لا يستحق الخوف منه ، والخوف تستتبعه عدم القدرة على المخضي في الصعاب . التجربة أهم من النجاح والفشل معا .”
― Peter Benchley, The Girl of the Sea of Cortez

“The door opened.
"We're here," said Mrs. Rogers.
Aunt Myra came in.
"Now!" said Amelia Bedelia.
"Greetings, greetings, greetings,"
said the three children.
"What's that about?" said Mrs. Rogers.
"You said to greet Aunt Myra with Carols," said Amelia Bedelia.
"Here's Carol Lee, Carol Green, and Carol Lake."
"What lovely Carols," said Aunt Myra.
"Thank you.”
