Hutson, Slugs
“I
am always glad… to renew my acquaintance with the unbeatable eatables dished up
by her superb French chef Anatole, God’s gift to the gastric juices. I have often regretted that I have but one
stomach to put at his disposal.”
“One
of the critics said he had perhaps seen it at a disadvantage because when he
saw it the curtain was up.”
“‘Hallo,
Reggie,’ he said, and I froze in my chair, stunned by the revelation that
Jeeves’s first name was Reginald. It had
never occurred to me before that he had a first name.”
“Her
greeting could not have been more cordial.
An aunt’s love oozed out from every syllable. ‘Hallo, you revolting object,’ she said.”
“The
following day dawned bright and clear, at least I suppose it did, but I wasn’t
awake at the time.”
“‘Oh,
it’s you,’ she said, which it was of course.”
-P.G.
Wodehouse, Much Obliged, Jeeves
“No
religion is perfect, not after man gets through with it.”
“Before
I begin, may I ask how old you are?"
"You
may ask."
"How
old are you?"
"It's
none of your business.”
“Relationships
are mysterious. We doubt the positive qualities in others, seldom the negative.
You will say to your partner: do you really love me? Are you sure you love me?
You will ask this a dozen times and drive the person nuts. But you never ask:
are you really mad at me? Are you sure you’re angry? When someone is angry, you
don’t doubt it for a moment. Yet the reverse should be true. We should doubt
the negative in life, and have faith in the positive.”
“The
opposite of love is not hate. It is indifference.”
“Please!
I don’t want to die!”
“Then
you should never have been born.”
“Truly
it it not the tragedies that destroy us, but the memories of them.”

“‘It’s
not possible!’ screamed Tallon in utter disbelief. ‘Nobody could do that!
Nobody’s that good!'”
-David
Alexander, Phoenix: Dark Messiah
“Too
much violence? Well, then, Shakespeare’s got too much talking. This is pulp
art, as riveting as a picture of the Grim Reaper riding a Harley, surrounded by
screaming zombie Vikings, tattooed on the back of a serial killer by his prison
cellmate.”
-Grady
Hendrix, reviewing the book Dark Phoenix: Messiah
“Now
he was dealing himself back in for one last hand of showdown.”
“Give
him ten minutes in a baby nursery and he’ll have the babies armed and demanding
softer diapers.”
-Jason
Frost, Invasion USA novelization
"This
Ransom, is he really that good?"
"There's
no one who can touch him in your whole damned army."
-Strike
Commando
“It
is possible to be crazy and paranoid and totally insane and still be right.
Maybe the problem with everyone is that the world has become so insane they’re
not out of their minds enough to comprehend it.”
“A
song isn't a commercial for an album. It isn't a tool to build name awareness
or reinforce your brand. A song is a bullet that can shatter your chains.”
“A
girl with a guitar never has to apologize for anything.”
