“Sinto o calor de uma tarde de verão
E um vento calmo mas persistente
Talvez leve com ele a minha solidão
Que em mim toca insistentemente
Estou triste, muito triste até
Mas não quero largar este sentimento
As distrações prazerosas não ajudam
A perceber o meu tormento
Não foi só porque partiste que estou assim
Também perdi o meu propósito
O que é que quero para mim?
Qual é o meu caminho?
Ainda estou a descobri-lo
aos poucos, devagarinho.”

“Sinuhe, my friend, we have been born into strange times. Everything is melting – changing its shape – like clay on a potter’s wheel. Dress is changing, words, customs are changing, and people no longer believe in the gods – though they may fear them. Sinuhe, my friend, perhaps we were born to see the sunset of the world, for the world is already old, and twelve hundred years have passed since the building of the pyramids. When I think of this, I want to bury my head in my hands and cry like a child.”
Source: سینوهه
“Sinuous and beautiful fortune-tellers, stagily coifed and ear-ringed and flounced in tiers of yellow and magenta and apple-green, perfunctorily shuffled their cards and proffered them in dog-eared fans as they strolled through the crowds, laying soft-voiced and unrelenting siege to every stranger they met.”

“Sinéad Donohoe makes an interesting note that can be seen to apply to the [Sorceress] archetype:
'As she appears in myth, the temptress is the damsel whose cries for rescue went unheeded, and who has been allowed to perish.'
The Sorceress is the Vixen who wasn't given the resources to healthily individuate, just as she is the Bully who used whatever power available to meet her personal needs. Now she finally has some freedom from and power over others, but due to her fundamental feeling of lack, she uses all means at her disposal to meet her needs by securing resources from others.”
“Siobhan also says that if you close your mouth and breathe out loudly through your nose it can mean that you are relaxed, or that you are bored, or that you are angry and it all depends on how much air comes out of your nose and how fast and what shape your mouth is when you do it and how you are sitting and what you just said before and hundreds of other things which are too complicated to work out in a few seconds.”
“Siobhan dice che se si solleva un sopracciglio, questo gesto può significare molte cose differenti. Può voler dire: “Voglio fare sesso con te”, ma può anche essere inteso come: “Hai appena detto una cosa veramente stupida”.”

“Siobhan said that when you are writing a book you have to include some descriptions of things. I said that I could take photographs and put them in the book. But she said the idea of a book was to describe things using words so that people could read them and make a picture in their own head.”
“Siobhan wanted to be more like the heroines of the books she liked, about girl detectives and girl adventurers: tomboyish, scrappy, and resourceful, able to outsmart adults and survive without them, her body sun-brown and waiflike. She was, instead, a freckled, blue-eyed redhead, pale and dense as a block of shortening, who wasn’t allowed to use the stove.”

“Sionnach smiled in the way of the falsely modest and added, "Forgive me for not standing, but I can't find the energy just yet."
the answering heat flare was enough to raise the temperature in the cave, enough to explain the fine sheen of sweat on Sionnach's body. It wasn't comfortable, but it was useful at hiding the truth. He waited as Keenan's gaze took in the candles, the glasses beside the bed, and the fact that Sionnach was seemingly naked. There were moments in every faery's life that were too perfect to have been planned, and Sionnach was having just such a moment as he reclined in Rika's bed grinning while the faery who had caused such upheaval in Rika's life—and in their desert—very obviously misinterpreted the clues.”

“Sipendi dharau: mimi kumdharau mtu au mtu kunidharau mimi. Sitakudharau kwa sababu sikujui. Hupaswi kunidharau kwa sababu hunijui.”
“Siphonophores do not convey the message a favorite theme of unthinking romanticism that nature is but one gigantic whole, all its parts intimately connected and interacting in some higher, ineffable harmony. Nature revels in boundaries and distinctions; we inhabit a universe of structure. But since our universe of structure has evolved historically, it must present us with fuzzy boundaries, where one kind of thing grades into another.”

“Sippin' on that brown stuff
Got you feeling like you found love,
Or maybe it was just luck.
But honestly...it's probably none of the above.”
“Sipping a cup of tea, going for a morning walk, doing your work - all these small activities make up your living. And each part, each moment of living, is meaningful. You just have to be there; otherwise, who is going to experience the meaning? People go on drinking tea, but they never are there; their minds are wandering all over the world.”
