“Fuse box is in there. I can go check on the kids so I’m not in your hair.”
“Oh no, you’re going to help.” He was so nonchalant as he said it, opening the door and setting his toolbox down to hold it in place.
One of my eyebrows rose at the evenly spoken command. “Am I?”
He hit me with the full force of those eyes when he turned. “Yeah. Because if this ever happens again, you’ll know what to do.” Aiden jerked his head for me to join him in the utility room.”

“Fusese învățat că frumosul era nepieritor ca atribut al lumii create de Dumnezeu, de aceea el trebuia să existe numai în prezența binelui și adevărului. […] Orice ființă își juca rolul pentru care fusese creată, iar acest lucru se întâmpla și cu animalele, și cu oamenii stârmbi, chiar dacă acest scop nu se revela cu ușurință muritorilor de rând […]
Anticii spuneau că existau lucruri frumoase prin ele însele, iar altele frumoase în funcție de alte repere. Monștrii înfrumusețau creația, fiind născuți prin voința divină […] Frumusețea apărea și mai strălucitoare comparată cu absența ei, la fel și bunătatea lumina în întunericul răutăților. Dacă n-ar fi fost bezna, prin contrast, lumina ar mai fi fost atât de atrăgătoare și dorită? Bunătatea ar mai fi fost prețuită într-o lume în care totul ar fi fost bun și frumos? Contrastul însemna că îți întorceai mai cu drag privirile de la chipurile drăcești spre cele sfinte, în timp ce doar șirurile angelice ar fi obosit la un moment dat, multiplicând la infinit aceleași trăsături?”

“Fusing heaven to earth, the Big Horn Mountains stood before him. A few clouds swirled around the highest peaks, furthering the illusion of a wall reaching forever upward. His eyes watered from the glare of the sun against snow, but he could not look away. Nothing in Glass’s twenty years on the plains had prepared him for such mountains.
Captain Henry had spoken often of the enormity of the Rockies, but Glass assumed his stories were infused with the standard dose of campfire embellishment. In actuality, Glass thought, Henry’s portrait had been woefully inadequate. Henry was a straightforward man, and his descriptions focused on the mountains as obstacles, barriers to be surmounted in the drive to connect a stream of commerce between east and west. Missing entirely from Henry’s description had been any hint of the devout strength that flowed into Glass at the sight of the massive peaks. […]
His awe of the mountains grew in the days that followed, as the Yellowstone River led him nearer and nearer. Their great mass was a marker, a benchmark fixed against time itself. Others might feel disquiet at the notion of something so much larger than themselves. But for Glass, there was a sense of sacrament that flowed from the mountains like a font, an immortality that made his quotidian pains seem inconsequential.”

“Fusing the doctrines of Plotinus and Proclus with the creeds and beliefs of Christianity, Dionysius the Pseudo-Areopagite combined the Neo-Platonic conviction of the fundamental oneness and luminous aliveness of the world with the Christian dogmas of the triune God, original sin and redemption. The universe is created, animated and unified by the perpetual self-realization of what Plotinus had called "the One," what the Bible had called "the Lord," and what he calls "the superessential Light.”

“Fussing over children who cry only encourages them, she told us. That's positive reinforcement for negative behavior.
I never believed in Santa Claus. None of us kids did. Mom and Dad refused to let us. They couldn't afford expensive presents, and they didn't want us to think we weren't as good as other kids who, on Christmas morning, found all sorts of fancy toys under the tree that were supposedly left by Santa Claus...Pick out your favorite star, Dad said it was my Christmas present....Years from now, when all the junk they got is broken and long forgotten, Dad said, you'll still have your stars.
Some babies are premature. Mine were all postmature. That's why they're so smart. Their brains had longer to develop.
It's not being prejudiced, Mom said. It's a matter of accuracy in labeling.
When Dad went crazy, we all had our own ways of shutting down and closing off, and that was what we did that night.
I didn't feel like celebrating. After all he'd put himself through, I couldn't believe Dad had gone back to the booze.
Dad, please come, we need you! I hollered. We need you! we shouted. You're the head of the family! You're the dad!
I had to believe they'd come back, I told myself. If I didn't believe, then they might not return. They might leave us forever.
Mom...Things usually work out in the end. What if they don't?...That just means you haven't come to the end yet.”

“Fut-ce le fruit de mon imagination? Il me sembla voir passer sur le visage de notre voisin une expression que j'aurais pu traduire en ces termes: "Pourquoi te donnes-tu tant de mal? J'ai gagné, tu ne peux pas ne pas le savoir. Le simple fait que j'assiège chaque jour ton salon pendant deux heures n'en est-il pas la preuve? Si brillants que soient tes discours, tu ne pourras rien contre cette évidence: je suis chez toi et je t'emmerde.”

“Futility Move him into the sun - Gently its touch awoke him once, At home, whispering of fields unsown. Always it woke him, even in France, Until this morning and this snow. If anything might rouse him now The kind old sun will know. Think how it wakes the seeds, - Woke, once, the clays of a cold star. Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides, Full-nerved -still warm -too hard to stir? Was it for this the clay grew tall? -O what made fatuous sunbeams toil To break earth's sleep at all?”

“Futon World - a wonderful place that becomes slowly less comfortable over time.”
“Future and past meet during the present.”
“Future arises out of your misery, not out of your celebration. A really celebrating person has no future; he lives this moment, he lives it totally. Out of that total living arises the next moment, but it is not out of any lust. Of course, when out of celebration the next moment arises, it has more capacity to bless you. When out of celebration the future arises, it goes on becoming more and more rich. And a moment comes when the moment is so total, so whole, that time completely disappears.”
