Dark chocolate is definitely the best.
(Nope Stephen, I ain’t signin up. To echo BooksNCrannies words “No one's puttin' a chip in my brain!”
Idk if I’d say it’s mark of the beast but I’m steering clear that’s for sure)

Strawberry thunderstorms

(Yay, a fellow dark chocolate lover. :))
No one I know irl knows this about me, but The Titanic is one of my fav movies 😅
(Stephen anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. Don’t confess to crime like that. Just do it in secret. 🤓)
Oops I was responding to the stolen books thing. Didn’t see there were more first thoughts.

FAUST.
I 've studied now Philosophy
And Jurisprudence, Medicine, -
And even, alas! Theology,
From end to end, with labor keen;
And here, poor fool! with all my lore
I stand, no wiser than before:
I 'm Magister-yea, Doctor-hight,
And straight or cross-wise, wrong or right,
These ten years long, with many woes,
I've led my scholars by the nose, -
And see, that nothing can be known!
That knowledge cuts me to the bone.
I'm cleverer, true, than those fops of teachers,
Doctors and Magisters, Scribes and Preachers;
Neither scruples nor doubts come now to smite me,
Nor Hell nor Devil can longer affright me.
For this, all pleasure am I foregoing;
I do not pretend to aught worth knowing,
I do not pretend I could be a teacher
To help or convert a fellow-creature.
Then, too, I 've neither lands nor gold,
Nor the world's least pomp or honor hold -
No dog would endure such a curst existence!
Wherefore, from Magic I seek assistance,
That many a secret perchance I reach
Through spirit-power and spirit-speech,
An thus the biter task forego
Of saying the things I do not know, -
That I may detect the inmost force
Which binds the world, and guides its course,
Its germs, productive powers explore,
And rummage in empty words no more!

(When I read your first thought, confusion, I thought of this part of Faust 😅 It's a tragedy by Goethe)
Equivalence
(Stephen, which version of The Titanic is your favorite: the 1950s or 1990s version? I've watched only the 1950s version.)

“I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said I'll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight”
