“One must seriously doubt the story that Prometheus did not expect the vulture. It is far more likely, according to modern psychology, that it was entirely for the purpose of being pecked in the liver that he stole the fire of heaven. He was a masochist; masochism, like eye coloring, is an inborn trait and nothing to be ashamed of; one should matter-of-factly indulge it and utilize it for the good of society.”

“[...] Las historias de dioses y héroes están llenas de mujeres salvadas y traicionadas, Penélopes olvidadas que esperan y Pandoras curiosas. Porque, oh, si no somos lo que ellos desean, nos convierten en monstruos, mientras ellos matan y viven a voluntad y pasan a la historia por las más cuestionables hazañas.”

“Maelstrom Rock by Stewart Stafford O, obsidian jagged island, This playground of the gods, Distant white novice waves, In warhorse slam into rock. Be this witchcraft or wit's raft? Conducting the vast elements, With lava-hot passion mustered, Spinning whirlpool shipwreck tales. A walker between the winds comes, Both Nature and shaman within it, Of coral and shell and weed growth, Compassion at flaying whip's end. Bid goodbye to the demi-paradise! On the gloomy prow, watch it flee, An aria's dreams of magic ebbing, Freed thralls clasp earthly chains. © Stewart Stafford, 2024. All rights reserved.”

“You have an instinct, Sophie, that's how," said Howl. "Nothing is safe from you. If I were to court a girl who lived on an iceberg in the middle of the ocean, sooner or later—probably sooner—I'd look up to see you swooping overhead on a broomstick. In fact, by now I'd be disappointed in you if I didn't see you.”

“Comic book fans come in many forms - Some attend comicon, Some visit the vatican, Some visit vrindavan. Some bury head in the bible, Some bury head in das kapital. When pages of books are prioritized over humanity, world gets infested with sheeple. Mind begins in the wake of chains, Life begins in the wake of sect. A hundred hajj won't make you holy, If your heart is ever cold and dead.”
