Quote by Louise Rennison

“Oh Blimey O‘Reilly's pantyhose...what is the point of Shakespeare? I know he is a genius and so on, but he does rave on. What light doth through yonder window break? It's the bloody moon, for God's sake, Will, get a grip!!”

“I speak the Truth, that's who I am"...This phrase is often a declaration by some, a sign of strength, or integrity. But...There are truths about me that are none of your business. There are truths about you that are none of my business, either. If I were to use yours against you, or you use mine against me, we would indeed be speaking the truth, but it would not erase the hatred and meanness that also describes us. There is no strength in that. And there's sure no integrity in it either”

“A historian reveals that excavations at Adichanalu determine that Thirai Meelar which means sea farers traveled across continents. It was considered a talent to be able to return back to the home turf. The reading led toward another instance of beauty. Tamil sailors used the same technique as sea-turtles to return home. Sea-turtles floated along sea currents but did not swim in oceans. I sit like a harbinger of tides along the coast, unaware of the migration or home, in search of sea-turtles.”

“Remove this quote from your collection “Human forgiveness is 5 things: 1. I won’t seek revenge on you. 2. I won’t remind you of who your really are. 3. I won’t treat you the way you treated me. 4. I will release the pain as opportunities allow. 5. I won’t let your actions shape my character. It does NOT mean: 1. I have to Trust you again. 2. I approve of your actions. 3. Your character is a reflection of me. 4. I am weak. 5. My hope lies within you.”

“Man is only a reed, the weakest in nature, but he is a thinking reed. There is no need for the whole universe to take up arms to crush him: a vapor, a drop of water is enough to kill him. But even if the universe were to crush him, man would still be nobler than his slayer, because he knows that he is dying and the advantage the universe has over him. The universe knows none of this. Thus all our dignity consists in thought. It is on thought that we must depend for our recovery, not on space and time, which we could never fill. Let us then strive to think well; that is the basic principle of morality.”
