"To the well-organized mind, death is but another great adventure." - J.K. Rowling
"So when I was beating the guy, I started thinking, 'What if I was Hannah Montana?' ... And little do they know that that's why I look so insane ... I'm torturing myself with thoughts of, 'How could I actually pull off being a high school student and a pop star at night?'" - Inglourious Basterds star Eli Roth, revealing the inspiration for his Nazi-beating character, to The A.V. Club
"I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful." - Marilyn Monroe
"It rarely takes more than a page to recognize that you're in the presence of someone who can write, but it only takes a sentence to know you’re dealing with someone who can’t. (By the way, here's a simple way to find out if you’re a writer. If you disagree with that statement, you’re not a writer. Because, you see, writers are also readers.)" - unknown

"Jay roomed with a Japanese guy named Masi for two years in college, and apparently Masi had very strict no-shoe rules, which Jay inherited. As a kid, Jared hadn't realized how much living habits had in common with STDs. You don't mean to get them, but then there you are at the doctor, wondering where the hell you picked that up." - chash
"I love hugging. I wish I was an octopus, so I could hug ten people at a time." - Drew Barrymore.
"'Multiple exclamation marks,' he went on, shaking his head, 'are a sure sign of a diseased mind.'" - Terry Pratchett, Eric

"But it's no use going back to yesterday because I was a different person then." - Alice in Wonderland
"I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is." - Albert Camus
"...whenever I hear someone say, 'I don't believe in abortion' or 'I don't believe in atheism', I want to ask them if they hear themselves denying that these things even exist. In the first example, one does have to wonder why people who don’t believe in it want to ban it, since usually we don't need to outlaw things that don't exist. Obviously, what they mean is, 'I don't approve, but I don't want to have an argument about it because I know I'm being an asshole, so I'm going to invoke the language of faith because I know that it's considered bad manners to criticize someone's faith to their face." - Amanda Marcotte at pandagon.com
Jareth: You remind me of the babe.

Goblin: Do what?
Jareth: Remind me of the babe!

"I was 16 or 17 when I wrote [Kiss With A Fist]. I'd just fallen in love for the first time, and I'd also started hanging out with an older group of people, watching how their relationships worked. There was this one couple who were so cool, but so visceral and so intense. The guy never hit the girl, but I saw her lamp him a couple of times, and she'd always give as good as she got. But it wasn't really the physical violence, it was more about the fact that their animal passion for each other was the thing that was attractive for them. It was how joyful destruction can be, and how alluring it is to be in a relationship that was so fiery. There was never a dull moment when they were around. I don't know how they do it! I'm a conflict avoider. I think I write about such intense things because I'm actually really bad at expressing anger." - Florence Welch of Florence + The Machine
Bradley James: I'm really angry that I don't have a fridge!
Anthony Head: You've gone red!
Bradley: Yeah, 'cause that's how angry I am at not having a fridge!
Anthony: Why are you so angry at not having a fridge?
Bradley: Cause I can't drink milk!

"You know what? I know this isn't you talking, it's your hormones; but I would just like to say, 'Fuck you, hormones! You are a crazy bitch, hormones! Not Alison! Hormones!' Fuck them! It's a girl; buy some pink shit." - Ben Stone, Knocked Up
"Dear Doctor: I am feeling very sick. I have a heart in my stomach which throbs and mocks. Suddenly the simple rituals of the day balk like a stubborn horse. It gets impossible to look people in the eye: corruption may break out again? Who knows. Small talk becomes desperate.
Hostility grows, too. That dangerous, deadly venom which comes from a sick heart. Sick mind, too. The image of identity we must daily fight to impress on the neutral, or hostile, world collapses inward: we feel crushed." - Sylvia Plath, journal, February 20, 1956
"If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together, there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is that even if we're apart, I'll always be with you." - A.A. Milne
"I think for the most part, if you're really honest with yourself about what you want out of life, life gives it to you." - Ted Mosby, How I Met Your Mother
"I would rather feel things in extreme than not at all." - Bonnie Raitt
Me: You know, I think you should fly out here on Christmas and hang with me.
Kate: I would if I wasn't functionally bankrupt.
Me: Make your parents pay for it. Tell them I'm dying or something. Tell them I had an at-home abortion that went wrong and I need your support.
