Quote by Ardin Patterson

“Roland shoved his hands into his pockets, watching his nephew stomp around in the slush. Dianna took a giant leap into the puddle, causing the child to shriek wildly with excitement. He’d forgotten how playful she was. How playful they all had been.”

“The mountaintop offers a supernatural experience. It is a moment of transcendence, where you feel a deep connection with nature, which offers a sense of fulfilment.”

“It isn't easy, being a wicked stepfather. There are no guidelines. Western literature is filled with tips on how to become a wicked stepmother. Give your stepkid a poison apple. Make her clean the chimney while your daughters go to the ball. Ditch them in a forest and make them find their way home with bread crumbs. Stepfathers don't get an instruction manual. They have to learn to be wicked on their own.”

“Violeta put her head down in her humble way. "I'm certainly able to bray loudly, Bart, dear. But that would attract a lot of attention. I don't like to do that because it is not always a good thing. Besides, braying loudly wastes energy. I don't want to do that unless it's for something very important." Bart thought that made a lot of sense. The silly goats were always making noises over the littlest things. "Oh, we're being let out now? Buh-uh-uh! Oh, there's a butterfly! Buh-uh-uh!" The lambs and the ewes were only slightly better. You're right, Violeta. From now on I'm not going to make noise without a good reason, either," said Bart.”
