“I don't like ordinary girls. But a girl who would kill a guy to make him hers and then kiss his still-warm lips... a girl like Oscar Wilde's Salome They drive me crazy.

“A number of frail girls... prisoners in the top room of a circular tower, embroidering a kind of tapestry which spilled out the slit windows and into a void, seeking hopelessly to fill the void: for all the other buildings and creatures, all the waves, ships and forests of the earth were contained in this tapestry, and the tapestry was the world.” WorldKindEarthGirlRoomsNumbersBuildingCreaturesWindowWaveSeekingForestsShipsPrisonerVoidTowersFrailTapestrySlitsFill The Void Book:The Crying of Lot 49 Source: The Crying of Lot 49

“Grace is in a great measure a natural gift; elegance implies cultivation; or something of more artificial character.

The movements of a kitten or a young fawn are full of grace; but to call them "elegant" animals would be absurd.” WellsMayPersonsCharacterWould BeYoungGirlHouseNaturalAnimalGraceTreeMovementBuildingAbsurdAccomplishedArtificialElegantEleganceKittenCultivationUneducatedRusticNatural GiftsElegant WomanFawns Book:A Selection of English Synonyms Source: A Selection of English Synonyms
