Book cover for Dark King (Court of the Sea Fae, #1)
“And do you know what they say about people who make assumptions? You make an ass of you and … umptions.” I’d butchered the saying, and I tried to clear my throat. “Which is a valid human expression.”

David Lodge
“I wondered whether, if Kierkegaard had been a Catholic, they would have made him a saint by now, and built a basilica over his grave. He would make a good patron saint of neurotics.”
David Lodge, Therapy

Trevor Noah
“Trevor, remember a man is not determined by how much he earns. You can still be a man of the house and earn less than your woman. Being a man is not what you have, it's who you are. Being more of a man doesn't mean your woman has to be less than you.”
Trevor Noah, Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood

Trevor Noah
“Nelson Mandela once said, 'If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.' He was so right. When you make the effort to speak someone else's language, even if it's just basic phrases here and there, you are saying to them, 'I understand that you have a culture and identity that exists beyond me. I see you as a human being”
Trevor Noah, Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood

Gail Honeyman
“She looked at him with so much love that I had to turn away. At least I know what love looks like, I told myself. That's something. No one had ever looked at me like that, but I'd be able to recognize it if they ever did.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine
tags: hurt, love

Daniel Keyes
“Is life worth living in the jaws of society's trash can for misfit minds? What can I possibly achieve or contribute to mankind in this steel and concrete box with a damn loud laughing wall that moves? Just give up?”
Daniel Keyes, The Minds of Billy Milligan
