Quote by Stephen King

“Gasher looked up. "YOU," he snarled. "Me," Roland agreed. He fired once and the left side of Gasher's head disintegrated. The man went flying backward, bloodstained yellow scarf unravelling, and landed on top of the Tick-Tock Man. His feet drummed spastically on the iron grillework for a moment and then fell still.”

“And [Moby Dick's narrator] is so very smart, so very smart indeed, and so gifted with words, so very gifted, that at the right time he'll make you forget his presence, just to signal, at a certain point, that he was there all the time: and that he is actually you, a narrator to the troubled but no less amusing, and beautiful, human existence.”

“É o mesmo que falar “essa menina não tem noção de ridículo”. O que é noção de ridículo? Eu nunca soube. Quem define esse ridículo? Como os seres humanos todos podem ter a mesma noção do que é ridículo e do que não é? Ninguém pode definir o que é fútil para mim, ninguém decide o que posso ou não fazer. Afinal, é o meu corpo. Assim como eu decido se vou cortar ou não o cabelo da minha Barbie. Não importa, de verdade, se a minha prima acha que é uma má ideia. A boneca é minha, o corpo é meu, eu decido.”

“No tenían ya palabras. Las estrellas empezaban a brillar. ¿Cómo fue que sus labios se encontraron? ¿Cómo es que el pájaro canta, que la nieve se funde, que la rosa se abre? Un beso; eso fue todo. Los dos se estremecieron, y se miraron en la sombra con ojos brillantes. No sentían ni el frío de la noche, ni la frialdad de la piedra,ni la humedad de la tierra, ni la humedad de las hojas; se miraban y tenían el corazón lleno de pensamientos. Se habían cogido de las manos sin saberlo.”
