Charissa’s Notes & Highlights

Hamilton: The Revolution by Lin-Manuel Miranda

4 highlights

“Let’s agree that for the next two and a half hours, this is the most important thing we’ll do in our lives.”

“Hey. I don't care what kind of faerie or mortal or hideous creature you are. If you've got danglies and can lose them, that's the kind of sight that make you reconsider the possible genitalia-related ramifications of your actions real damned quick.”
― Jim Butcher, Proven Guilty

― H. P. Lovecraft

“May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't forget to make some art -- write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.”
― Neil Gaiman
