— Marion Zimmer Bradley, The Forest House

Quote:

"Oh, what would you like on your vegetarian pizza?" "Dead pigs and cows," I said. She glanced up at me and wrinkled her nose. "They're vegetarians," I said defensively.
— Jim Butcher, Blood Rites
Baseball:
Quote:

When I was a small boy in Kansas, a friend of mine and I went fishing. I told him I wanted to be a real Major League baseball player, a genuine professional like Honus Wagner. My friend said that he'd like to be President of the United States. Neither of us got our wish.
— Dwight D. Eisenhower

A relieved grin filled up Thorne's face. "We're having another moment, aren't we?"

― Marissa Meyer, Scarlet

Whisky is liquid sunshine.
― George Bernard Shaw
Earth:

How inappropriate to call this planet "Earth," when it is clearly "Ocean."
— Arthur C. Clarke

My old grandmother always used to say, Summer friends will melt away like summer snows, but winter friends are friends forever.
— George R.R. Martin, A Feast for Crows

winter-
Quote:

“Dementia. Ruth puzzled over the diagnosis: How could such a beautiful-sounding word apply to such a destructive disease? It was a name befitting a goddess: Dementia, who caused her sister Demeter to forget to turn winter into spring.”
― Amy Tan, The Bonesetter's Daughter
holiday-
Quote:

“Samhain had its origins, like many modern holidays or celebrations, in pagan times. As the sidhe-seers had been inclined to erect churches and
abbeys on their sacred sites, the Vatican had been wont to “Christianize” ancient, pagan celebrations in an if-you-can’t-beat-them-and-don’t-wantto-
join-them-rename-it-and-pretend-it-was-yours-all-along campaign.”
― Karen Marie Moning, Faefever
squirrel-
Quote:

“The squirrel has not yet found the acorn that will grow into the oak that will be cut to form the cradle of the babe that will grow to slay me.”
― Neil Gaiman, Stardust
games-
Quote:

“Whether they’re family or friends, manipulators are difficult to escape from. Give in to their demands and they’ll be happy enough, but if you develop a spine and start saying no, it will inevitably bring a fresh round of head games and emotional blackmail. You’ll notice that breaking free from someone else’s dominance will often result in them accusing you of being selfish. Yes, you’re selfish, because you’ve stopped doing what they want you to do for them. Wow. Can these people hear themselves?!”
― Rosie Blythe, The Princess Guide to Life
baseball-
Quote:

“Why? Why should the bond between a people and their baseball team be so intense? Fenway Park is a part of it, offering a physical continuum to the bond, not only because Papi can stand in the same batter's box as Teddy Ballgame, but also because a son might sit in the same wooden-slat seat as his father.”
― Tom Verducci
heat-
Quote:

“Never before had I known the sudden quiver of understanding that travels from word to brain to heart, the way a new language can move, coil, swim into life under the eyes, the almost savage leap of comprehension, the instantaneous, joyful release of meaning, the way the words shed their printed bodies in a flash of heat and light.”
― Elizabeth Kostova, The Historian

Space:
Quote:

Real museums are places where Time is transformed into Space.
― Orhan Pamuk, The Museum of Innocence
Ocean:
Quote:

You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.
— Mahatma Gandhi
Longing:
Quote:

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
— Helen Keller
Heat:
Quote:

Fear both the heat and the cold of your heart, and try to have patience, if you can.
— J.R.R. Tolkien
Touch:
Quote:

Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.
— Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

space-
Quote:

“I have never listened to anyone who criticized my taste in space travel, sideshows or gorillas. When this occurs, I pack up my dinosaurs and leave the room.”
― Ray Bradbury, Zen in the Art of Writing
ocean-
Quote:

“I am a tiny seashell
that has secretly drifted ashore
and carries the sound of the ocean
surging through its body.”
― Edward Hirsch
medicine-
Quote:

“Isn’t it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do “practice”?”
― George Carlin

Gallagher 02-28-2020 02:27 AM

The eternal silence of these infinite spaces frightens me. Blaise Pascal
Ocean
Quote:

Sponges grow in the ocean. That just kills me. I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be if that didn't happen. Steven Wright
Longing
Quote:

I'm moved by people who see the world differently than others. People who see the world with a longing for its poetry often can be broken people. Laura Dern
Heat
Quote:

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back? Steven Wright
Touch
Quote:

Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same. Helen Keller
Games

I cannot get myself interested in video games. I've been given video game players and they just sit there connected to my TVs gathering dust until eventually I unplug them so I can put in another special-region DVD player. Quentin Tarantino

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for. Georgia O'Keeffe

I was reading the dictionary. I thought it was a poem about everything. Steven Wright

Gallagher 02-28-2020 09:47 AM

Games:
Quote:

Of course I have played outdoor games. I once played dominoes in an open air cafe in Paris.
― Oscar Wilde
Art:
Quote:

The only artists I have ever known who are personally delightful are bad artists. Good artists exist simply in what they make, and consequently are perfectly uninteresting in what they are. A great poet, a really great poet, is the most unpoetical of all creatures. But inferior poets are absolutely fascinating. The worse their rhymes are, the more picturesque they look. The mere fact of having published a book of second-rate sonnets makes a man quite irresistible. He lives the poetry that he cannot write. The others write the poetry that they dare not realize.
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray
Squirrels:
Quote:

She's as nutty as squirrel poo.
— J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Reading:
Quote:

Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.
— C.S. Lewis
Holidays:
Quote:

My experience in Amsterdam is that cyclists ride where the hell they like and aim in a state of rage at all pedestrians while ringing their bell loudly, the concept of avoiding people being foreign to them.
My dream holiday would be a) a ticket to Amsterdam b) immunity from prosecution and c) a baseball bat.
— Terry Pratchett

Gallagher 03-01-2020 03:00 AM
