Louisa May Alcott
- Florence Pugh - Little Woman
Well, I believe we have power over who we love, it isn't something that doesn't just happen to a person. Well I think the poets may disagree. Well, I'm not a poet. I'm just a woman- and as a woman, there's no way for me to make my own money. Not enough to earn a living or to support my family. And if I had my own money, which I don't, that money would belong to my husband the moment we got married. And if we had children they would be his not mine. They would be his property.
Jason Mraz
- I'm Yours
Open up your mind and see like me. Open up your plans and damn you're free. Look into your heart and you'll find love. Listen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing. We're just one big family, and it's our God-forsaken right to be loved.
Will Wood
- "Love Me, Normally" - Will Wood
This is about the time in the show where I talk to my audience and I like to tell them: I want you to look in the eyes of that beautiful woman or man or neither or in-between that you brought with you tonight, and I want you to tell them how you really feel. That you love the way they so gracefully and seamlessly, like a dream blend into their surroundings. Never sticking out like the sore thumb they so certainly could be if they didn't have the - what's the word I'm looking for? Compassion?
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
- Cameron Frye
He'll keep calling me. He'll keep calling me until I come over. He'll make me feel guilty. This- this is ridiculous. Okay I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go... Shit.

"Isms," in my opinion, are not good. A person should not believe in an "ism", he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon: "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me."

I do have a test today, that wasn't bullshit. It's on European Socialism. I mean really, what's the point? I'm not European. I don't plan on being European. So who gives a crap if they're Socialists? They could be fascist anarchists. It still wouldn't change the fact that I don't own a car.

- You are not your job
You might not be doing what you want to with your life but that's not anyone's fault. The job isn't who you are. It is just what you're doing on the road to what you're gonna be.
Director Shin
- Grasp
We reach out for things we want in life... but they're nothing but delusions that dissipate once they're within our grasp. Maybe, life isn't about claiming what we want... but securing the things that were already given to us. Everyone lost what they valued because they weren't able to see what they already had in their hands.

- Keep Asking Yourself "What's Really Important" - Don't Sweat the Small Stuff... and It's All Small Stuff
When I take a few moments to remind myself of what's really important, I find that I'm more present-moment oriented, in less of a hurry, and that being right loses its appeal. If you regularly take a minute to check in with yourself, to ask yourself, "What's really important?" you may find that some of the choices you are making are in conflict with your own stated goals. This strategy can help you align your actions with your goals and encourage you to make more conscious, loving decisions.

You and me always forever We could stay alone together You and me always forever Say you'll stay never be separate You know you've got me in your pocket You know just have to wait around You know I'll keep you in my locket Just come here and we can settle down

- A Life of Typing Finale
After over a year, I am ending my typing story (err... probably. I might come back for an epilogue). I've solved my problem of not using much of my right hand, and now often hit 100 WPM, my goal from the beginning. I'll still visit, but this is the rest of the story. Goodbye, for now.

- Things that Keep me up Pt. 2
You'll walk into the kitchen, brew a cup of black coffee, stare at the pale morning rays of sunlight entering the window frame, and come to the conclusion that for no particular reason at all, you don't love me anymore.

- Things that Keep me up Pt. 1
My biggest fear isn't that you'll lie to me one day or that you'll cheat on me. My biggest fear is that you'll wake up before me one Tuesday morning and instead of leaning in and kissing me on the cheek, you'll look at my sleeping body and start to notice all of my flaws. My crooked nose, my chapped lips, and the stretch marks spread along my stomach. You'll think about my random spouts of jealousy and the fact that I talk too much. You'll remember just how selfish I can be sometimes.
Quote
I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulation game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies...

Did you know that the stewardess had a monopoly on darts? Stewardess is the longest word that you can type with only your left hand and monopoly is the longest one that you type with only your right. Dart is only your left hand. I use quotes like this to train.

"Why do you pretend what we do is nothing?" she asked. "Every day, all the chaos and messiness of life happens and every day we clean it all up. Without us, they would just wallow in filth and disorder and nothing of any consequence would ever get done. Who taught you to sneer at that? I'll tell you who. Someone who took their mother for granted."
Jack Ketchum
- Off Season
They watched her cross the meadow and step over the low stone wall, into the woods beyond. She looked awkward. She would be easy to catch. They took their time. Breaking off the white birch switches, peeling the bark away. They could hear her moving through the underbrush. They looked at one another and smiled, but said nothing. They peeled the switches, and then they started after her.

- Tender is the Flesh
I know that when I die somebody's gonna sell my flesh on the black market, one of my awful distant relatives. That's why I smoke and drink, so I taste bitter and no one gets any pleasure out of my death. Today I'm the butcher, tomorrow I might be the cattle.
