“I'm pro-choice because I've never been a fourteen-year-old incest victim pregnant by her father, or a woman who's going to die if her pregnancy continues, or even a teenager who made a mistake or a rape victim.

― Laurell K. Hamilton, Danse Macabre

“But we never get back our youth… The pulse of joy that beats in us at twenty becomes sluggish. Our limbs fail, our senses rot.

― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“Do you know, every time I've seen you you've been like the Grim Reaper of goodwill and cheer. You should find another profession.”
― Lora Leigh, Maverick
