The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay
Tina and 2 other people liked Flannery's status update
Flannery
Flannery is on page 86 of 281 of The Last Dragonslayer: I was hesitant to read this since I am such a fan of JF's adult Thursday Next series. Turns out he writes with the same quirky humor and clever jokes when he writes for a YA audience.
Ron Lim
Ron Lim is on page 348 of 576 of Modelland: Read the reviews of Chapters 26 and 27 here!

Tina is on page 115 of 636 of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay: We have the idea that our hearts, once broken, scar over with an indestructible tissue that prevents their ever breaking again in quite the same place; but as Sammy watched Joe, he felt the heartbreak of that day in 1935 when the Mighty Molecule had gone away for good.

John Paul II
“It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is He who provoked you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is He who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is He who reads in your heart your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle.

It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be ground down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal.”
John Paul II

“I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.”
Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby

C.S. Lewis
“I was with book, as a woman is with child.”
C.S. Lewis, Till We Have Faces

Sarah Dessen
“There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.”
Sarah Dessen, The Truth About Forever

C.S. Lewis
“I know now, Lord, why you utter no answer. You are yourself the answer. Before your face questions die away. What other answer would suffice?”
C.S. Lewis

Heart and Brain (Literature & Fiction)
2 chapters   —   updated Sep 14, 2010 08:10am
Description: A little something I wrote a little over a year ago, found it in one of my many, many blogs online. This is the story of two friends Heart and Brian, and Heart's love problems. It's not romance, but it has a hint of it, or lack of it, actually. :) And no, there is no typo in the title. :) Thought it's appropriate to post here (especially the second chapter, given the nature of this site.
