Quote by Darynda Jones

“The horror that riveted through me, the absolute terror with a taint of nausea, stunned me speechless for three, maybe four seconds. I put the mug down and made a cross with my fingers, screaming, "Death before decaf!" as Garrett poured himself a cup. The fool.”

“Sina jinsi. Nguzo ya maisha yangu ni historia ya maisha yangu. Historia ya maisha yangu ni urithi wa watu waliojifunza kusema hapana kwa ndiyo nyingi – waliojitolea vitu vingi katika maisha yao kunifikisha hapa nilipo leo – walionifundisha falsafa ya kushindwa si hiari. Siri ya mafanikio yangu ni kujitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wangu wote. Hiyo wote katika herufi kubwa. Wote katika herufi kubwa (WOTE) si neno la kawaida falau katika nukuu hii ya mafanikio. Linamaanisha kujitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wako wote uliopewa na Mwenyezi Mungu. Watu wengi hujitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wao. Usijitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wako. Jitahidi kwa kadiri ya uwezo wako WOTE.”

“All the values turn upside down with the years, and what was considered a privilege in the Special Purpose Camp of the twenties—to wear government-issue clothing—would become an annoyance in the Special Camp of the forties: there the privilege would be not to wear government-issue clothing, but to wear at least something of one's own, even just a cap. The reason here was not economic only but was a cry of the whole epoch: one decade saw as its ideal how to join in the common lot, and the other how to get away from it.”
