Yah! And yeah, death. You kill Acheron and you die. I get to rule the world of man and everyone’s happy.” Hands on hips, Dionysus arched a brow. “So what do you say?”“I say get me the fuck out of here.”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Styxx

“It's not fair!" (Ryssa)

Popular quotes

“Through political opportunism and ineptitude, the city had allowed the [police] department to languish for years as an understaffed and underequipped paramilitary organization. Infected with political bacteria itself, the department was top-heavy with managers while the ranks below were so thin that the dog soldiers on the street rarely had the time or inclination to step out of their protective machines, their cars, to meet the people they served. They only ventured out to deal with the dirtbags and consequently, Bosch knew, it had created a police culture in which everybody not in blue was seen as a dirtbag and was treated as such. Everybody.”
― Michael Connelly, quote from The Concrete Blonde

“Aren‘t you going to get up?"

He put a hand on the curve of her hip, a possessive gesture that had already become
familiar.

"No. Let‘s have more sex.”
― Nalini Singh, quote from Caressed by Ice

“You are everything. To me you’re the world.” I whispered against his mouth.”
― A. Meredith Walters, quote from Find You in the Dark

“Hitoshi:

I'll never be able to be here again. As the minutes slide by, I move on. The flow of time is something I cannot stop. I haven't a choice. I go.

One caravan has stopped, another starts up. There are people I've yet to meet, others I'll never see again. People who are gone before you know it, people who are just passing through. Even as we exchange hellos, they seem to grow transparent. I must keep living with the flowing river before my eyes.

I earnestly pray that a trace of my girl-child self will always be with you.

For waving good-bye, I thank you.”
― Banana Yoshimoto, quote from Kitchen

“It won't hurt you. It's just to kill plants. It's called Agent Orange...and it won't bother humans.”
― Karl Marlantes, quote from Matterhorn
