Hozier
- Would That I
True that I saw her hair like the branch of a tree, a willow dancing on air before covering me. Under cotton and calicoes, over canopy dapple long ago. True that love in withdrawal was the weeping of me, that the sound of the saw must be known by the tree. Must be felled for to fight the cold, I fretted fire but that was long ago.
Roald Dahl
- Lamb to the Slaughter
The violence of the crash, the noise, the small table overturning, helped bring her out of the shock. She came out slowly, feeling cold and surprised, and she stood for a while blinking at the body, still holding the ridiculous piece of meat tight with both hands. All right, she told herself. So I've killed him.
Lestat de Lioncourt
- Lestat -- Interview With the Vampire (2022)
This primitive country has picked you clean. It has shackled you in permanent exile. Every room you enter, every hat you're forced to wear - the stern landlord, the deferential businessman, the loyal son - all these roles you conform to, and non of them your true nature! What rage you must feel as you choke on your sorrow.
Les Miserables
- Little Fall of Rain
The rain that brings you here is heaven blessed. The skies begin to clear, and I'm at rest; a breath away from where you are. I've come home from so far. So don't you fret monsieur Marius, I don't feel any pain. A little fall of rain can hardly hurt me now. You're here, that's all I need to know. You will keep me safe, and you will keep me close. And rain will make the flowers grow.
Shelby Van Pelt, Remarkably Bright Creatures
- Communication According to Marcellus the Octopus
It seems to be a hallmark of the human species: abysmal communication skills. Not that any other species are much better, mind you, but even a herring can tell which way the school it belongs to is turning and follow accordingly. Why can humans not use their millions of words to simply tell one another what they desire?

- Historians
Traditionally, historians have recorded events of the past, either in writing or by passing on an oral tradition, and attempted to answer historical questions through the study of written documents and oral accounts.
A H Hadley
- Falling in Love
You think I wanted to fall in love with a gladiator?... You think we get to pick? You think they wanted this? If you consider either man your friend, then stop and think about how hard it must be. Connal keeps telling me that he isn't much of a man, and yet he's done nothing but protect all of us in his own way. How is that different from what you do.
Timothy
- Glove80 Part 3
Hi, it's been six months since I first got this keyboard and never looked back. It's amazing to be honest, how much I've changed since then. No doubt helped by this keyboard. I've gone from 30WPM when I first got it to hitting 120WPM regularly nowadays. Not saying it's gonna make you an amazing typist immediately, I still practice on this site everyday. But it'll definitely improve your typing habits and boy are the thumb clusters a joy to work with.
Solitario
- Todo lo que has esperado han sido segundos perdidos.
You are feather in the wind, flesh in a lion's cage, condemned to see everything you set your mind to die. It's just that life is not made for dead men; like an errant mistake you represent a "sorry." You are a failure with legs, a disgrace with a body, but your heart beats... you still have time.
Kim Wonpil of Day6
- A spin on Lao Tzu's famous quote
A depressed person lives in the past, an anxious person lives in the future, and a person at peace lives in the present. Like opening a window to let the wind in, open your heart, and let happiness in.
stranger
- Eclipse
I was the sun, always warm with love and light. She was the fleeting moon during the eclipse. Every day, I sparkled and beamed. But for a moment she flashed her beauty. He liked to be inside all day, hiding from the heat. Everyday I wished he could come out to see me. One day he did and I was overjoyed. Until I realized he only came out to see the eclipse.
Satoru
- Gojo
Hey there. It's been a while, huh? I'm for real real. I'm still alive and kicking! Exactly. When you stabbed me through the throat, I gave up on counterattacking and poured all of my focus into the reversed cursed technique. Cursed energy is negative energy. While it can enhance the body, it can't regenerate it. So, you multiply that negative energy against itself to create positive energy. That's the reversed cursed technique! Easier said than done! I could never do that till now!
Porter Robinson
- Cheerleader
Somehow, I don't even know what she does now. But do I wish her the best, or do I actually miss her? She had hearts in her eyes. She was rooting for me all the time. Her love, the type that makes you dedicate your life. Oh, my cheerleader. Thought she needed me, but I need her.
Colin the tall guy
- Little things
To truly know someone you have to do quiet mundane things. Yeah sure going out and having fun is great don't get me wrong. But it isn't as important to your future as doing the simple things together, seeing how you interact during the normal moments. Don't pack every meeting with an activity, just take a walk and talk. Cook together or do laundry, listen to music. See what it's like to live your life with this person by your side.
William Peter Blatty
- The Exorcist, pg 49
He went to the bathroom. Yellowing newspaper spread on the tile. Stains of rust in the tub and the sink. On the floor, an old corset. These the seeds of vocation. From these he had fled into love, but now the love had grown cold. In the night, he heard it whistling through the chambers of his heart like a lost and gently crying wind.

- Stock market
Stock market, equity market, or share market is the aggregation of buyers and sellers of stocks (also called shares), which represent ownership claims on businesses; these may include securities listed on a public stock exchange as well as stock that is only traded privately, such as shares of private companies that are sold to investors through equity crowdfunding platforms. Investments are usually made with an investment strategy in mind.
Sunset Boulevard
- Never Said Goodbye
I don't want to be alone, that's all in the past. This world's waited long enough. I've come home at last! And this time will be bigger - and brighter than we knew it. So watch me fly, we all know I can do it!
A H Hadley
- Befriend the Monsters
There's nothing wrong with living in the shadows. It's where the monsters hide. Befriend them, because there's nothing more powerful than realizing you have the power to write your own destiny.
Homer, translated by Emily Wilson
- The Iliad
Goddess, sing of the cataclysmic wrath of great Achilles, son of Peleus, which caused the Greeks immeasurable pain and sent so many noble souls of heroes to Hades.
Coach Nick Saban
- What it takes to retain greatness
The process of repeating as national champion requires more attention. It can't be about trying to prove something, because you've kind of already done that. It needs to be about: Do you want to be the best you can be? Are you driven to be the best player you can be? Are you driven to have the intensity, the sense of urgency, the intelligence? Are you going to work to do the things you need to do to be your absolute best? And that's not normal. Everybody think's it's normal, but it's not normal.
