Pains of love be sweeter far than all the other pleasures are.

By nature man hates change; seldom will he quit his old home till it has actually fallen around his ears.

Thomas Carlyle

This character feels so much like my brother. He has two children. He has a wife. He works with me. He chooses to stay in New Hampshire because he wants his kids to grow up in the school they started with. He doesn't want them to lose friends. He is his family's hero.

Keshavan Nair

Just praise is only a debt, but flattery is a present.

Samuel Johnson

Night poured over the desert. It came suddenly, in purple. In the clear air, the stars drilled down out of the sky, reminding any thoughtful watcher that it is in the deserts and high places that religions are generated. When men see nothing but bottomless infinity over their heads they have always had a driving and desperate urge to find someone to put in the way.

Terry Pratchett
