Castle in the Air

I am a believer in free will. If my dog chooses to hate the whole human race except myself, it must be free to do so.

Take it from me, Fate doesn't care most of the time.

I can't abide people who go soft over animals and then cheat every human they come across!

Nobody gets praised for the right reasons.

Tell me about this Wizard Howl of yours." "He's the best wizard in Ingary or anywhere else. If he'd only had time, he would have defeated that djinn. And he's sly and selfish and vain as a peacock and cowardly, and you can't pin him down to anything." "Indeed? Strange that you should speak so proudly such a list of vices, most loving of ladies."

It's just as I thought," she said. "I prefer you to every single one of these. Some of these look far too proud of themselves, and some look selfish and cruel. You are unassuming and kind. I intend to ask my father to marry me to you, instead of to the Prince in Ochinstan. Would you mind?

Tell me of this wizard Howl of yours." Sophie's teeth chattered, but she said proudly, "He's the best wizard in Ingary or anywhere else. If he'd only had time, he would have defeated that djinn. And he's sly and selfish and vain as a peacock and cowardly, and you can't pin him down to do anything." "Indded?" asked Abdullah. "Strange that you should speak so proudly such a list of vices, most loving of ladies." "What do you mean, vices?" Sophie asked angrily. "I was just describing Howl!

Jamal stared at the dog in his arms. "Why I am I holding a dog full of angels?

It was time for a strong-minded woman to take charge. Abdullah was quite glad that Sophie was one.

A very short burst of thought was enough to convince Abdullah that his situation, despite the chains, would be very much worse if he became a toad.
