[QUOTE="Jakathi, post: 1201655, member: 14827"] Devils and demons are generally in a bad mood. It's when they're in a good mood you have to worry. ~~~~ Soralis de Mordant There isn't much difference between demonic and internation politics The only difference is, the demons don't apologize when they kill the loser of a debate. ~~~~ Soralis de Mordant I'd rather face a bunch of rampaging Orcs than an enraged mother. ~~~~ Soralis de Mordant "I don't want to live with myself," said Barley. "I can't think of anybody worse to live with." ~~~John Le Carre The Russia House "Very stupid people," said Beauty, "are never aware of it themselves." ~~~Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont Beware of all enterprises which require new clothes. ~~~David Mamet My plan is to carefully scrutinize my past in the name of not being condemned to repeat it by writing myself an annual report on my birthday. ...I'm not stupid enough to think it's going to keep me from making mistakes ever again but it would be nice if at least I could start making some new ones. ~~~Merrill Markoe It's My F---ing Birthday I've found that sometimes the illusion of progress is almost as good as progress itself. ~~~Merrill Markoe It's My F---ing Birthday If I am going to live in a fantasy world, {I need to} work on developing a more impressive fantasy. ~~~Merrill Markoe It's My F---ing Birthday My spelling is Wobbly. It's good spelling but it Wobbles, and the letters get in the wrong places. ~~~A.A. Milne "Excellent," muttered Arthur to himself. "More advice. Don't go near the Old One. Do go near the Old One. Don't stay past twelve. Trust the Will. Don't trust the Will. I wish someone would tell me something straightforward for once." ~~~Garth Nix Mister Monday None of his family went to Church and he knew very little about any religion. Now he kind of wished he did and was also kind of glad that he didn't. ~~~Garth Nix Mister Monday He couldn't believe that he was in this situation. He was supposed to be some sort of hero, going up against Mister Monday, and here he was without any pants on, worrying about being bitten somewhere very unpleasant by Nithling snakes. Surely no real hero would end up in this predicament. ~~~Garth Nix Mister Monday "Charity is a very labor-intensive virtue," said the Will crossly. "And you never know where it will end. But I suppose it was well-enough done." ~~~Garth Nix Mister Monday The world, dear Agnes, is a strange affair. ~~~Jean Baptist Moliere And Darkness, Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all. ~~~Edgar Allan Poe "You'd be surprised." "At what?" "At how much you'll lament it when it's gone utterly, when you are perfect and unchangeable like me, and all those human mistakes can be triumphantly supplanted by a new and more stunning series of failures...." ~~~Anne Rice ..."one can feel desperate at any age, don't you think? The young are eternally desperate," he said frankly. "And books, they offer one hope - that a whole universe might open up from between the covers, and falling into that new universe, one is saved." ~~~Anne Rice Blackwood Farm It is my sad duty to write down these unpleasant tales, but there is nothing stopping you from putting this book down at once and reading something happy, if you prefer that sort of thing. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Bad Beginning If you are interested in stories with happy endings, you would be better off reading some other book. In this book, not only is there no happy ending, there is no happy beginning and very few happy things in the middle. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Bad Beginning Sometimes, just saying that you hate something, and having someone agree with you, can make you feel better about at terrible situation. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Bad Beginning But one type of book that practically no one likes to read is a book about the law. Books about the law are notorious for being very long, very dull, and very difficult to read. This is one reason many lawyers make heaps of money. The money is an incentive - the word "incentive" here means "offered reward to persuade someone to do something you don't want to do" - to read long, dull, and difficult books. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Bad Beginning Dramatic irony is a cruel occurrence, one that is almost always upsetting, and I'm sorry to have it appear in this story, but Violet, Klaus, and Sunny have such unfortunate lives, that it was only a matter of time before dramatic irony would rear its ugly head. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Reptile Room One of the most difficult things to think about in life is one's regrets. Something will happen to you, and you will do the wrong thing, and for years afterward you will wish you had done something different. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Reptile Room We all know that our time in this world is limited, and that eventually all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet, it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. ~~~Lemony Snicket The Reptile Room Mr. Poe was kindhearted, but it is not enough in this world to be kindhearted, particularly if you are responsible for keeping children out of danger.
