Adelaide Book Quotes

The thing about Adelaide is that she felt everything. Truly, everything. She cried during documentaries, while reading books, when royal babies were born. She cried when she was happy and when she was sad and when the world felt like it was all just too much and her face was on fire and the only way to cool it down was to cry, cry, cry, cry, cry. It often felt selfish and irrational. She knew she was so lucky, so blessed. That there was no reason to cry. It didn’t matter; she would cry anyway.

Wouldst thou find my ashes? Look In the pages of my book; And as these thy hand doth turn, Know here is my funeral urn.

I don't believe in telling people what they should do, so I'll tell you what you shouldn't do instead... young people can't write a book because they don't have enough life experience, teachers and parents please cover your ears for a second, that it BULLSHIT! Anyone can write a book if they have an idea.

After her declaration to become a ghost, her sister had given a nervous half-laugh and said that she didn't want Adelaide to do anything to scare her. Adelaide had agreed, but said she'd move things around her home just to confuse her. And laughed too. Her husband, Simon, had told her not to be morbid and reminded her that the consultant wasn't sure. It was possible she might live.

C’era una volta il bianco e nero. Anzi, c’è ancora. Nel senso che è importante per raccontare storie di grande impatto visivo. La serie fotografica Architetture Criminali di Adelaide Di Nunzio - che è anche un libro, uscito nel 2020 per i tipi di Crowdbooks - racconta storie di edilizia incompiuta e beni confiscati alla mafia nel Sud d’Italia, ma anche battaglie culturali per la legalità come quella del fratello di Peppino Impastato. Insomma, un lavoro di denuncia e molto altro, al quale nel 2016 è stato dato spazio con una personale in galleria, alla Mediterranea di Napoli. Di Nunzio, che è nata e cresciuta a Napoli, ha realizzato la serie in oltre due decadi di lavoro. Scattando con un forte contrasto bianco nero. Il risultato è un effetto reportage, dove la luce vira su toni neorealistici per raccontare in maniera quasi documentaristica la drammaticità della situazione.

My favourite part of my new book so far: Chapter 48: Creatures of The Night A figure stood in the stairwell beneath the Smoke's Poutinerie close to Simcoe Street and Adelaide Street West. He munched his pulled pork poutine and watched the strange object glide through the fog that engulfed the tall blue R.B.C. building. “Nice night for a stroll,” smiled The Rooster. Upon heading North, Fred had decided to take a detour and glide the exact opposite way: South. It was why he was now flying through the fog that suspended over the R.B.C. building. Through the billowing cloud he sailed and higher up into the air as he was heading towards the business district of Toronto where all the skyscrapers were. As Fred got closer, he understood why they were labeled as skyscrapers: they basically scraped the sky. But the view from up here was fantastic. It was a rainy and cold night, but Fred felt very warm in his upgraded suit. Soon, he was zooming past the green windowed T.D. building and back towards the North side of Yonge Street. However, as he sailed home, he began to worry about Allen. The Rooster had already cut up his ex-girlfriend so what would he do to Allen? Allen had been a friend to Fred when no one else had been there. Of course, he used to have many friends in preschool, elementary school, and high school but no one he clicked with. Allen McDougal was really the only family he had left and he didn't want The Rooster to kill his old friend in any way. I must radio him, thought Fred as he shot past Dundas Square. But when he pressed the button on the helmet that alerted his Butler's phone, there was no answer. Damn it. They've already got him.

Like John Brenda's Gothic evocation of Savannah in his book, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the city of Adelaide, with its dramatic backdrop of verdant hills against the flat city landscape, its iconic festival scene and reputation as a food and wine paradise, hid an uglier face. Beneath the veneer of genteel respectability, parts of its society crawled with human vermin.

That won't be necessary, I'm quite fond of this idiot." - Adelaide Winters

Stacey S was still preoccupied with college applications. Adelaide found her shockingly ambitious. They had both taken the tests and written early drafts of the common application essay. Alabaster forced them to do all that. But Stacey, with her spreadsheets and bookmarked web pages, took on the college process with ferocity. She had brought a big book of colleges with her on the bus. The pages were marked with sticky notes in different colors.

It was all so difficult, she felt, and Adelaide didn’t know how to explain why she wanted to decorate her flat with peonies and plants and color-coordinated stacks of books while simultaneously wanting her life to end. She wanted to be here, on this earth—to squeeze her friends’ hands on their wedding days, to kiss their babies, to send care packages to her family for their birthdays. But she also just wanted to die. To leave. If she felt more secure in her faith—safer in the knowledge that heaven existed, that she was guaranteed entry—she would have done it. She would have left. But she didn’t want to go to hell or the Bad Place or that island in Lost. Right now, she just wanted to not live and be safe.

Do the thing that sets your heart on fire, Wetherly said. For me, that thing was writing. I woke up at four each morning and wrote, for years. And this book is the product of those hours, of that dedication. Writing was what set my heart ablaze, and now I get to do that full time.

I’m still taking birth control, yes.” “Bryce Adelaide Quinlan, you know what I mean.

ADELAIDE (English) Nobel and quiet.

When their sobs quieted,

Regina, I know that you and Sophie had a fight after Miko was born. But it wasn't her fault that Logan got reassigned so quickly, truly." Now, it was Adelaide who had to sit. She took the chair next to the door, precariously. She swallowed the nervous bubble rising in her throat. "It was me.
