"It lives in the cemetery, Catalina said. The words had not frightened her. But now, standing outside, with only a packet of cigarettes and a lighter, she felt exposed and vulnerable, and she couldn’t help but wonder exactly what lived in the cemetery." — 6 hours, 4 min ago

"Solo lei si muoveva in sintonia con i propri pensieri. Sui volti tesi che la circondavano c'era la consapevolezza che la leggenda fosse rivolta a loro. La leggenda parlava di loro. Forse era la loro. Forse era un'allusione al rituale estivo. Si, la storia li eccitava. E allo stesso tempo erano inorriditi dall'eccitazione che la storia aveva suscitato in loro." — May 24, 2026 03:01PM

"«Finisce qui tra noi due, piccola?»
«Non lo so», gli disse facendo uno sforzo perché non le tremasse la voce. «Troppo presto per dirlo.»
«Se dovessi dire la mia», ribatté lui, «direi di sì. Oggi ha dimostrato due cose. Una è che una donna in buona salute può correre lontano.»
«Ti chiamo», disse lei.
«L'altra è che i bambini vivi per un matrimonio sono un collante. Quelli morti sono un acido.»" — May 18, 2026 02:05PM

“Cliff never wondered what Americans would do if the Russians, or the Nazis, or the Japanese, or the Mexicans, or the Vikings, or Alexander the Great ever occupied America by force. He knew what Americans would do. They’d shit their pants and call the fucking cops.”

“He said that while the huérfano might feel that he no longer belonged among men he must set this feeling aside for he contained within him a largeness of spirit which men could see and that men would wish to know him and that the world would need him even as he needed the world for they were one.”

“What is important?”
“Living and growing,” Mrs. Wheatley said with finality. “Living your life.”
