“I know we can do this. I know it's not how you would have chosen it, but I know I can make you happy. And all I can say in that you make me... you make me into someone I couldn't even imagine.

― Jojo Moyes, Me Before You

“That was how his pen finally designed his sculpture; in the center the weak,
confused, arrogant, soon to be destroyed young man holding cup a loft, behind him the idyllic child, clear-eyed, munching his grapes, symbol of joy

eternally young and gay, symbol of man’s childhood and naughty innocence”
― Irving Stone, The Agony and the Ecstasy

“And than suddenly he was there, charging down the hallway like death in a cowboy duster.”

“I demand of you a thousand pardons, monsieur. I am without defence. For some months now I cultivate the marrows. This morning suddenly I enrage myself with these marrows. I send them to promenade themselves - alas! not only mentally but physically. I seize the biggest. I hurl him over the wall. Monsieur, I am ashamed. I prostrate myself.”
― Agatha Christie, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
