“The history of human nature: How far can we get away with being complete and utter bastards, before we have to backtrack?”
— Paul MacAlindin

“The fate of peoples is made like this, two men in small rooms. Forget the coronations, the conclaves of cardinals, the pomp and processions. This is how the world changes: a counter pushed across a table, a pen stroke that alters the force of a phrase, a woman’s sigh as she passes and leaves on the air a trail of orange flower or rose water; her hand pulling close the bed curtain, the discreet sigh of flesh against flesh.”
— Hilary Mantel

“You can’t take the sky from me.”
— Joss Whedon
