"No! Don't go in there, please--"
But it was too late. The ferret brushed past her and disappeared into the Gatehouse.
Ripple followed, terrified. Why did this have to happen? Why?

- A random Redwall fanfic I wrote
Life is often like pushing a luggage cart through the airport. Sometimes I feel ridiculous, sometimes I look ridiculous, but I just keep pushing that luggage cart, and hoping I'm generally heading in the right direction.

  "I admire all my three sons-in-law highly," said he. "Wickham, perhaps, is my favourite; but I think I shall like your husband quite as well as Jane's."

:laugh: I love Mr. Bennet's sense of humour.

...with the Bingleys they both of them frequently staid so long, that even Bingley's good humour was overcome, and he proceeded so far as to talk of giving them a hint to be gone.

Infant Ebby is a smol, out-of-control firebending terror. It's a good thing she's also quite cute.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

"You can't just walk away, Holland. You haven't heard the best of it yet.........You see, she isn't just dead....She's damned, Holland. Damned to Hell. I ripped her soul from her and it pulsed in my hands, milky white and translucent, and then I hurled down into the deepest sewers of the Afterworld. Just to hear it scream.

Such is my power....the power to condemn a stainless innocent to the Pit."
