You should not call in a cat to settle the argument of two birds.
No call alligator long mouth till you pass him.
Better go without medicine than call in an unskilled physician.
The dog called "Sorrow," without eating, will be fat in every house.
Enjoy yourself, for there is nothing in the world we can call our own.
A forest that has sheltered you, you should not call a patch of scrub.
Call the bear uncle till you are safe across the bridge.
When Anger and Revenge get married, their daughter is called Cruelty.
Call the bear $quot;Uncle" till you are safe across the bridge.
No,” Joan vowed. She grabbed Bash’s shirt. “I don’t want this. Didn’t want this to happen.” Screams resonated. Bash continued quietly, “None of us do. That’s not up to us. We have to decide what we’re going to do with what we’re g...
Since I was a very young thing, others have told me that what I think, and the things I like, and the ideas I have, are bad. This has always been very puzzling to me. I understand in theory what the problem is, but in practice? I’m not compelled to...
They couldn't hurt Gansey. Nothing could hurt him; people who said money couldn't buy everything hadn't seen anyone as rich as the Aglionby boys. They were untouchable, immune to life's troubles. Only death couldn't be swiped away by a credit card.
The dead think they can get away with anything because you'll feel sorry for them. If you play cards with the dead, make sure you deal and don't let them buy you drinks. They'll slip you a formaldehyde roofie and pry the gold fillings out of your tee...
