Merlin Franco
“Tantra is about cultivating ecstasy and the awe for Shakti—the raw feminine energy that drives the world. When the male force Shiva and the feminine Shakti unite in unrestrained love, freedom is born. Freedom from ignorance, fear, hatred, bigotry, patriarchy, and misogyny.”
Merlin Franco, Saint Richard Parker

Max Nowaz
“Some days are better than others, for human optimism has no limits.”
Max Nowaz, The Arbitrator

Sara Pascoe
“With our beloved prairie voles the female has her ovulation induced by the smell of male urine. It’s a sure sign there’s a male nearby and so her body gets ready for mating. The exact opposite of a human female getting a whiff of urinals in a nightclub and her vagina falling off in disgust”
Sara Pascoe

Barbara Sontheimer
“Victor's tortured eyes blazed down at her, and for a moment she was afraid.  Then he leaned down and dissolved into tears in the arms of Celena who was only six.”
Barbara Sontheimer, Victor's Blessing

John Bunyan
“The book the man is reading is the Word of God, the Bible. It has become both the focus of and the reason for his current state of perplexity and distress. The heavy burden on his back is his awakened knowledge and sense of his own sin. The man discovers the frightful condition of his heart, which provokes genuine and constant fears of damnation. These fears are an ever-present weight upon his entire person.
4.”
John Bunyan, The Pilgrim's Progress: From This World to That Which Is to Come
