I'm the book that beat the speed-reader, and I'm the card the dealers won't touch. And it's just not true I'm a man-eater; all the same, we should probably go dutch.

Tim Brookes is the Giles to my Buffy, British accent and love of books and all. The only difference is that we slay the publishing industry instead of vampires, and I would NEVER wear animal print pants. Please. I know better than that.

You could make me the happiest girl in the world with this room.
I’d need nothing else; not shoes, not clothes, not diamonds, not pearls.
Just books, sunlight, and love.

Faithfulness and devotion, things born of fire and roof, were his; yet he retained his wildness and wiliness. He was a thing of the wild, come in from the wild to sit by John Thornton’s fire. Because of his very great love, he could not steal from this man, but from any other man, in any other camp, he did not hesitate an instant; while the cunning with which he stole enabled him to escape detection.
- Jack London, “Call Of The Wild.”
Never love a wild thing.

Sometimes when I dream, I sense a part of me that’s missing. It’s a strange feeling having your heart remember something your mind can not.

I believe now that we are greater than the sum of our parts. If you take her genetic code and you add her life experiences and the relationships she had with people, and then you take the size and shape of her body, you do not get her. There is something else entirely. There is a part of her greater than the sum of her knowable parts. And that part has to go somewhere, because it cannot be destroyed.
John Green, “Looking For Alaska”.‘I think that one of these days,’ he said, ‘you’re going to have to find out where you want to go. And then you’ve got to start going there.’
- The Catcher in the Rye, J.D. SALINGER. (via aacissej)
The beginning is always the hardest part of the journey.
