the stories and people we're quoting."

Freedom

"Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed -- else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die."

Stark Apologies

"Pepper, it's me. I've got a lot of apologies to make and not a lot of time, so... first off. I'm so sorry I put you in harm's way. That was selfish and stupid and it won't happen again. Also, it's Christmas time. The rabbit's too big. Done. Sorry. And I'm sorry in advance because... I can't come home yet. [pauses] I need to find this guy. You gotta stay safe. That's all I know. I just stole a poncho from a wooden Indian."

~ Tony Stark, Iron Man 3

Miles To Go

"These woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep."

Superstitious Fears

"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls."

~ George Carlin


"Get ready! Today is both Friday the 13th and a full moon. Superstitious fears about Friday the 13th began in the late 19th century, but belief that the full moon causes chaos has ancient roots."
~ Goodreads


While I don't believe in superstitions and luck, if asked I would tell you that I consider Friday, the number 13, the full moon, and wolves all to be good luck.             Jessy

The World Itself

"And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen."
