    Steve Jobs
    “Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
    Steve Jobs

    “Vhat ozzer abilities do you haf?" ter Borcht snapped, which his assistant waited, pen in hand.
    Gazzy thought. "I have X-ray vision," he said. He peered at ter Borcht's chest, then blinked and looked alarmed.
    Ter Borcht was startled for a second, but then he frowned. "Don't write dat down," he told his assistant in irritation. The assistant froze in midsentence.
    "You. Do you haf any qualities dat distinguish you in any way?"
    Nudge chewed on a fingernail. "You mean, like, besides the WINGS?" She shook her shoulders gently, and her beautiful fawn-colored wings unfolded a bit.
    His face flushed, and I felt like cheering. "Yes," he said stiffly. "Besides de vings."
    "Hmm. Besides de vings." Nudge tapped one finger against her chin. "Um..." Her face brightened. "I once ate nine Snickers bars in one sitting. Without barfing. That was a record!"
    "Hardly a special talent," ter Borcht said witheringly.
    Nudge was offended. "Yeah? Let's see YOU do it."
    ...
    "I vill now eat nine Snickers bars," Gazzy said in a perfect, creepy imitation of ter Borcht's voice, "visout bahfing."
    Iggy rubbed his forehead with one hand. "Well, I have a highly developed sense of irony."
    Ter Borcht tsked. "You are a liability to your group. I assume you alvays hold on to someone's shirt, yes? Following dem closely?"
    "Only when I'm trying to steal their dessert"
    ...Fang pretended to think, gazing up at the ceiling. "Besides my fashion sense? I play a mean harmonica."
    "I vill now destroy de Snickuhs bahrs!" Gazzy barked.”
    James Patterson

    “They turned to Angel. "We will call you Little One," the leader said, obviously deciding to dispense with the whole confusing name thing.
    "Okay," said Angel agreeably. "I'll call you Guy in a White Lab Coat." He frowned.
    "That can be his Indian name," I suggested.”

    James  Patterson
    “I took a bite of cookie and chewed. “Hmmm,” I said, trying not to spit crumbs. “Clear vanilla notes, too-sweet chocolate chips, distinct flavor of brown sugar. A decent cookie, not spectacular. Still, a good-hearted cookie, not pretentious.” I turned to Fang. “What say you?”
    “It’s fine.”
    Some people just don’t have what it takes to appreciate a cookie.”
    James Patterson, The Angel Experiment

    Frank Herbert
    “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
    Frank Herbert, Dune

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
