    Spencer C Demetros
    “I’m not sure what made me think God would choose to reveal himself to little olâ€� me. I think I believed that if I pleaded often and hard enough, he would see how sincere I was and grant my request, kind of like Linus and the Great Pumpkin. My sincerity would win him over so he would choose my pumpkin patch -- or, in this case, my bedroom -- to make a brief personal appearance. Unfortunately, that never happened.”
    ― Spencer C Demetros, The Bible: Enter Here: Bringing God's Word to Life for Today's Teens

    Max Nowaz
    “You don’t think he’s our man?â€� asked Adam. It occurred to him that Ramsbottom was not exactly forthcoming with information.
    “I didn’t say that,� Ramsbottom said. “In fact he is behaving very cautiously indeed, which makes me feel very suspicious.�
    “He has probably figured out that you are following him,� said Adam. “One can hardly fail to notice you hanging around all the time.�
    “That may be so,� said Ramsbottom.
    “Can’t you get a disguise or something?â€� asked Adam. “So he does not recognise you.”
    ― Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

    Crystal Raven
    “And what is this whole concept of freedom in the first place? The masses willingly traded that away many years ago for the security and protection of the State. Now they have their simple needs provided for them and are usually content until a few morons try to stir them up.”

    Jack Kerouac
    “[...]the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!”

    Tim LaHaye
    “You see,â€� Brooking said, “I was raised in the Church of England. Baptized and as a boy learned the catechism and all of that, and I became rather knowledgeable about all of the Christian doctrines of the faith, you know. But never felt, well, transformed by any of it, you might say. It stayed in my head. But never went any further.â€� “It’s good to have it in your head,â€� Zhang said with a smile. “But it’s very, very necessary to have it in your heart too. That’s where the transformation comes.”

    Michael Ondaatje
    “We die containing a richness of lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have plunged into and swum up as if rivers of wisdom, characters we have climbed into as if trees, fears we have hidden in as if caves.

    I wish for all this to be marked on by body when I am dead. I believe in such cartography - to be marked by nature, not just to label ourselves on a map like the names of rich men and women on buildings. We are communal histories, communal books. We are not owned or monogamous in our taste or experience.”
    ― Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient
