- A Gift from Lamb
I know it's wrong to feel so fine now, but I can't seem to quit this grin. Doctor Lamb came to tell me that Ryan's finally going to lock her up. It's going to gut the believers. And I should feel the same. But, Sofia remembered that I... that I was barren. And she asked me to take care of her baby while she's gone - baby Eleanor Lamb! Gorgeous, clever little girl. I have a child, now, and it's going to put the whole world right.
Eleanor Lamb
- We are Utopia II
The Rapture dream is over, but in waking - I am reborn. This world is not ready for me, yet here I am. It would be so easy to misjudge them. You are my conscience, Father, and I need you to guide me. You will always be with me now, father. Your memories, your drives. And when I need you, you'll be there, whispering on my shoulder. If Utopia is not a place but a people, then we must choose carefully. For the world is about to change. And in our story, Rapture was just the beginning.
Eleanor Lamb
- We are Utopia
And then, Father, the Rapture dream was over. You taught me that evil is just a word. Under the skin, it's simple pain. For you, mercy was victory. You sacrificed. You endured. And when given the chance, you forgave, always. Mother believed this world was irredeemable. But she was wrong, father. We are Utopia, you and I. And in forgiving, we left the door open for her.

- Zombie - The Cranberries (Lyrics)
Another head hangs lowly. Child is slowly taken, and when the violence caused such silence. Who are we mistaken? But you see, it's not me, it's not my family in your head, in your head, they are fighting; With their tanks, and there bombs, and there bombs, and their guns. In your head, in your head, they are crying. In your head, in your head. Zombie, zombie-ie-ie. What's in your head? In your head? Zombie, zombie zombie-ie-ie-ie, oh.

- Getting Over It Narration
Imaginary mountains build themselves from our efforts to climb them, and it's our repeated attempts to reach the summit that turns those mountains into something real.
Matt Smith
- Lonely Assassins (Part 2)
Of course, a stone can't kill you either, but then you turn your head away. And you blink. And oh yes, it can. The angels are coming for you, but listen, your life could depend on this. Don't blink, don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you could believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck.
Matt Smith
- Lonely Assassins (Part 1)
Lonely Assassins they used to be called. No one quite knows where they came from, but they're as old as the universe or very nearly, and they have survived this long because they have the most perfect defense system ever evolved. They are quantum locked. They don't exist when they're being observed. The moment they are seen by any other living creature they freeze into rock. In a sight of any living thing they literally turn to stone. And you can't kill a stone.
Itachi Uchiha
My foolish brother... If you want to kill me... curse me! Hate me! And live a long and unsightly life... Run away... run away... and cling to your pitiful life. And then some day, when you have the same eyes as I do, come before me.
Lendon Branxfort
- The Man in the Window
He was a puzzle to theologians, scientists, and philosophers. Atheists argued that he was their proof, for no benevolent deity would create such a creature. But theists argued that such a weak and pathetic creature could never be produced by evolution alone and therefore must be the result of divine or diabolical intervention.
Rick and Morty
- Simple Rick's Wafer Cookie
We've captured that moment, we run it on a loop through simple Rick's mind, and the chemical it makes his brain secrete goes into every Simple Rick's simple wafers wafer cookie. Come home to the impossible flavor of your own completion.

- The Death and Life of Zubulon Finch Vol 2: Empire Decayed
Go out; break things. Go further; repair them. Break hundreds of hearts. Have thousands of children. Discover awe in a tangle of weeds; find delight in the pattern of a role of mass-produced paper towels; live, Reader, live as hard as I died, and only then I will be happy.

- The Death and Life of Zubulon Finch Vol 2: Empire Decayed
The past is perpetually in play, always malleable, ever salvageable. Did any of this story happen as I said it did? The telling of a tale puts a prism to it from which incalculable new angles rainbow forth. You made this as real as I; remember it however you'd like. What you do with your time alive defines you, Reader, but hear me, I beg you, when I say that you are not done being defined.
Daniel Kraus
- The Death and Life of Zubulon Finch Vol 2: Empire Decayed
Go ahead now, set down this page. Do not worry. It is not abandonment. Another reader will pick it up before long, and somehow, through the shared enchantment of the human heart, it will be still be You, Dearest Reader, and it will still be Me. It's funny, isn't it? While we were distracted by the silly scraps that make up human history, you and I became eternal, impervious to rot, infinity itself.

- Oyasumi Punpun
At this time Punpun was busy studying very hard. There was no reason why. It just seemed to help calm him down. Maybe he'll study extra, extra hard, enter Tokyo University, and then become a nuclear physicist of a secret underground organization. And then he'd destroy mankind... Hahaha! Just kidding, what a funny child!
February Vingt-Neuf
It's the wrong time to make jokes about slavery. As a general rule, time your jokes to make them less insensitive; if it's been less than six months since Juneteenth or if there are less than six months until Juneteenth, it's the wrong time.
Gilbert Gollyweed
- Lifeless Library
If there were a fire bustling around the city and it could only choose one building to burn down, the lives it would kill most would be the library. There's no crowd of people in there, but there are books. Shelves of them. Rows of people who poured their thoughts and feelings in pages. Those are the lives that would be murdered. The people who spent a lifetime writing other lives plus their own.
Robert T. Kiyosaki
- The greatest fear
It is said that the fear of public speaking is a fear greater than death for most people. According to psychiatrists, the fear of public speaking is caused by the fear of ostracism, the fear of standing out, the fear of criticism, the fear of ridicule, and the fear of being an outcast. The fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems.
Dr.Ford
- Consciousness
We can't define consciousness because consciousness does not exist. Humans fancy that there's something special about the way we perceive the world, and yet we live in loops as tight and as closed as the hosts do, seldom questioning our choices, content, for the most part, to be told what to do next.

- Book Recommendations
The best part of going through the quotes in this website is discovering new book recommendations. Sometimes, a quote just strikes me so hard that I have to look up the quote and find the book.

- Something to Ponder - Part 2
The untold story of the Lost Boy, a merry member of Peter Pan's band of brigands, is one that has always enticed me. Were they trapped on Neverland? Could they actually die by the hand of a pirate? I also wonder about Captain Hook's crew of pirates... from whence did they come? Were they also taken from our world? Were they once business men? Fathers? Or among the homeless? Were they once Lost Boys who chose another path? These are the things I think about sometimes...
