“Fish seem to be rather conservative around this bay, one seldom catches enough to form the fundamental basis for a lie. Dante left out one of the torments of Hades I could imagine a doomed mortal made to untangle wet fish lines forever. Everybody lost patience at the stupidity of the fish in not coming forward promptly to be murdered.” MadeEnoughSeemsFormLyingLostLeftLinesForeverImagineBasesFundamentalsFishesConservativeStupidityMortalsFishingWetDoomedTormentLeft OutHades Author:Thomas A.

“The death of God left the angels in a strange position. They were overtaken suddenly by a fundamental question. One can attempt to imagine the moment. How did they look at the instant the question invaded them, flooding the angelic consciousness, taking hold with terrifying force? The question was, "What are angels?" New to questioning, unaccustomed to terror, unskilled in aloneness, the angels (we assume) fell into despair.” LooksMomentsLeftForceConsciousnessImaginePositionStrangeDespairAngelFundamentalsAssumingTerrorInstantQuestioningAngelicFlooding Book:Sixty stories Source: Sixty stories

“There are a few pretty fundamental differences. In voice acting, if you are doing game recording, for the most part you are going to be by yourself in a studio. With game voice acting you are constructing everything for yourself pretty much. You're thinking about what the other characters could be doing, trying to imagine the scene, you're constructing the entire environment for yourself.” IfsThinkingTryingCharacterGamesVoiceDifferencesActingEnvironmentImagineSceneFundamentalsStudiosVoice Acting Author:Ashly Burch
“It's something fundamental to me, human rights that people are equal under law simply because they are human beings.

“Relate comic things in pompous fashion. Irregularity, in other words the unexpected, the surprising, the astonishing, are essential to and characteristic of beauty. Two fundamental literary qualities: supernaturalism and irony. The blend of the grotesque and the tragic are attractive to the mind, as is discord to blasé ears. Imagine a canvas for a lyrical, magical farce, for a pantomime, and translate it into a serious novel. Drown the whole thing in an abnormal, dreamy atmosphere, in the atmosphere of great days … the region of pure poetry.” MindTwoWholeQualityNovelImagineFashionSeriousPureEssentialsEarsFundamentalsComicRelateAtmosphereIronyAttractiveCharacteristicsUnexpectedTragicRegionsSurprisingTranslateCanvasAstonishingAbnormalLyricalGrotesqueDiscordGreat DayDreamyPompousFarcePantomimeIrregularity Author:Charles Baudelaire
