I was aware of Darwin's views fourteen years before I adopted them and I have done so solely and entirely from an independent study of the plants themselves. [Letter to W.H. Harvey]
My father used to say that when he was growing up the water was clear and there were tons of fireflies everywhere... He felt sorry for the kids growing up today... But it is really beautiful... Time will just keep on passing... we'll get old... and l...
—Tenga novia o no, da lo mismo. —No tienes ni idea. —¡Pues claro que sí! ¡Cuando te gusta alguien eres feliz sólo con estar con él! Cualquier tontería te hace feliz y es divertida. ¡Con eso es suficiente! ¡No hace sentir mal! Quien no t...

Yuki (in a standoff with Zero): We're going to stay like this until vol. 10? Why...don't we sit down...Zero? Zero: I can't. If I sit down, I won't be able to get up again. (I've reached my limits in many ways). Yuki: Well, I'm going to sit...
Right now, Youngster, you remind me of a mosquito buzzing over what she thinks is a nice, normal, juicy vein, angling to swoop down, stick in the old proboscis and suck up some blood to take back to the kids. Little does she know that she's hovering ...
Hatsuharu Sohma: [after tripping Kyo] If I hadn't had tripped you, you wouldn't have stopped now would you. [addressing the audience] Hatsuharu Sohma: By the way what I just did was very dangerous. And if it had been anyone but Kyo they probably woul...
Color is definitely an important factor for me during all phases of producing a cover. I always start out with a loose idea of what I want to see when I'm doing my initial sketches. This choice can be informed by anything, but I usually tend to lean ...
I am convinced that the deepest desire within each of us is to be liberated from the controlling influences of our own psychic madness or patterns of fear. All other things—the disdain of ordinary life, the need to control others rather than be con...
I disagree. You want to bring back someone that you've lost. You might want money. Maybe you want women. Or, you might want to protect the world. These are all common things people want. Things that their hearts desire. Greed may not be good, but it'...

Dist. Atty. Harvey Dent: We've received a letter from Batman this morning. 'Please inform the citizens of Gotham that Gotham City has earned a rest from crime. But if the forces of evil should rise again, to cast a shadow on the heart of the city, ca...
Bruce Wayne: You know that day that you once told me about, when Gotham would no longer need Batman? It's coming. Rachel Dawes: Bruce. You can't ask me to wait for that. Bruce Wayne: It's happening now. Harvey is that hero. He locked up half of the c...
Hey Nana, If Cinderella's glass slipper fits so perfectly, I wonder why it fell off along the way? I can't help but think that it was on purpose, to attract the prince's affections. No matter what I do, I'll still have the fate of a girl who just kee...

I wish I could've lived my life without making any wrong turns. But that's impossible. A path like that doesn't exist. We fail. We trip. We get lost. We make mistakes. And little by little, one step at a time, we push forward. It's all we can do. On ...
Strangely enough, when you get older the things you didn't understand when you were a child start to make sense. "When this happened, I should have done that." "When that happened, I should have said this." those types of things. You start to underst...
Sometimes...you can cry until there's nothing wet in you. You can scream and curse to where your throat rebels and ruptures. You can pray, all you want, to whatever god you think will listen. And, still it makes no difference. It goes on, with no sig...
—Qué calentito. ¿Dónde has estado? —Trabajando. —No sabía que trabajaras. —Bueno, cada día en un sitio distinto. —Vaya... No lo sabía. —Hoy estuve vendiendo tartas frente a la estación, vestido de Papá Noel. —Papá Noel... ¿Eh?...
