“Like usual, what I want is not important, what I’m supposed to do that counts.”
Beatrice Sparks

Malorie Blackman
“Why had I thought of it that way? As a friendship both of us needed? That didn’t make any sense at all.”
Malorie Blackman, Noughts & Crosses

Jon Krakauer
“If you're bumming out, you're not gonna get to the top, so as long as we're up here we might as well make a point of grooving. (Quoting Scott Fischer)”
Jon Krakauer , Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster

Bill Watterson
“CALVIN: Here's an ad for a new gum called "Hyperbubble," and it says, "If you're not chewing Hyperbubble, you might as well be chewing your cud.
Ooh, great copy!

CALVIN: Gosh, am I cool enough to chew Hyperbubble? Maybe I'm NOT.
Maybe if you chew Hyperbubble, you BECOME cool

CALVIN: Or maybe if you chew it, everyone ASSUMES you're cool, so it doesn't matter if you are or not!
What do you think?
Should I buy some?

HOBBES: If your emotional security depends on satisfying a need you didn't have until you read the ad, go ahead.

CALVIN: I think I will! Boy, I'm glad I get this magazine.”
Bill Watterson, The Days Are Just Packed

Yvonne Korshak
“My Aspasia. With her, he’d discovered the sweetness in life . . . and she might like to know that. He’d tell her sometime. But he knew he’d given this lovely woman what she’d wanted most, their son’s name. He leaned over to the child. “So, you’re Little Pericles.”
Yvonne Korshak, Pericles and Aspasia: A Story of Ancient Greece
