― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn't carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.”
― Stephen King

“Elora: "If you bite me, I'll stake you."
Baka: "If I bite you, I'll stake myself.”
