"I've read all the books we have." She wrinkled her nose. "Armies aren't very good about carrying libraries with them. I can't imagine why. We'd fight so much less if everyone would just sit down and read."

"Not if I were allowed to shop for books."
"England would go bankrupt," he said gravely. "Thank God for wars."

The corner of his mouth quirked up. "It's too late. I've switched already, and since you've forbidden switching that quickly again, I'm stuck opposing you."
"Congratulations," she said. "You've just described our entire relationship.”

“Siempre estamos en guerra. Estamos siempre en lucha con la muerte, y sabemos que al final va a ganar la muerte. En los conflictos armados eso es más visible, pero en la vida diaria sucede lo mismo. No podemos permitirnos el lujo de ser infelices todo el tiempo”
― Paulo Coelho, The Zahir

“I don't suppose I could have a whiskey instead of the wine, could I?"
"Whiskey?"
"Yes"
"I didn't know you drank whiskey."
"And I didn't know you were a psychopath. Just bring me a whiskey”
― B.A. Paris, Behind Closed Doors
