I'm afraid of being loved. Because "I love you this way" means the same thing as "I won't love you anymore if you stop being this way", doesn't it?
Nakatani Nio (Bloom into You, Vol. 6)
Other people are only as powerful as you allow them to be in your world. Shrink the thoughts you give them, and you will literally shrink their role in your life.

What the Motorcycle Said Br-r-r-am-m-m, rackerty-am-m, OM, AM: All-r-r-room, r-r-ram, ala-bas-ter- Am, the world’s my oyster. I hate plastic, wear it black and slick, hate hardhats, wear one on my head, That’s what the motorcycle said. Passed phonies in Fords, knockede down billboards, landed On the other side of The Gap, and Whee, bypassed history. When I was born (The Past), baby knew best. They shook when I bawled, took Freud’s path, threw away their wrath. R-r-rackety-am-m. Am. War, rhyme, soap, meat, marriage, the Phantom Jet are sh*t, and like that. Hate pompousness, punishment, patience, am into Love, hate middle-class moneymakers, live on Dad, that’s what the motorcycle said. Br-r-r-am-m-m. It’s Nowsville, man. Passed Oldies, Uglies, Straighties, Honkies. I’ll never be mean, tired, or unsexy. Passed cigarette suckers, souses, mother-fuckers, losers, went back to Nature and found how to get VD, stoned. Passed a cow, too fast to hear her moo, “I rolled our leaves of grass into one ball. I am the grassy All.” Br-r-r-am-m-m, rackety-am-m, OM, Am: All-gr-r-rin, oooohgah, gl-l-utton- Am, the world’s my smilebutton.

G.L. Breedon (The Wizard of Time (Wizard of Time, #1))
Faith is trust, hope and belief in the goodness, trustworthiness or reliability of a person, concept or entity. This means looking past the reality of your current situation and seeing what you want. It also means when a friend asks you to trust, you do the same. Look past the veil of reality and have faith that what you want is there, only as far away as you want it to be xxx

We, the weird and the sideways folk, have always walked the line of rejection. It’s what makes us visionaries. We who are pushed away, to the edge, can see beyond the borders of reality. We frighten the privileged with our possibilities.

G.L. Carriger (The Sumage Solution (San Andreas Shifters, #1))
La morte (o la sua allusione) rende preziosi e patetici gli uomini. Questi si commuovono per la loro condizione di fantasmi; ogni atto che compiono può esser l'ultimo; non c'è volto che non sia sul punto di cancellarsi come il volto d'un sogno. Tutto, tra i mortali, ha il valore dell'irrecuperabile e del casuale. Tra gl'Immortali, invece, ogni atto (e ogni pensiero) è l'eco d'altri che nel passato lo precedettero, senza principio visibile, o il fedele presagio di altri che nel futuro lo ripeteranno fino alla vertigine. Non c'è cosa che non sia come perduta tra infaticabili specchi. Nulla può accadere una sola volta, nulla è preziosamente precario. Ciò ch'è elegiaco, grave, rituale, non vale per gli Immortali.
Jorge Luis Borges (The Aleph and Other Stories)

A horror story. Patient GL, whose genetic make-up appears to be 50 per cent goji berry recipes and 50 per cent Mumsnet posts, has announced she wants to eat her placenta. The midwife and I both pretend not to hear this – firstly because we don’t know what the hospital protocol is, and secondly because it’s completely revolting. GL calls it ‘placentophagia’ to make it sound more official, which doesn’t particularly wash; you can make anything sound official by translating it into the ancient Greek.*
Adam Kay (This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor)
Nel momento in cui l'anima è ancora tanto giovane da concepire la melanconia, le speranze lontane, e sa trovare nella donna più che una donna, la maggiore felicità che possa capitare ad un uomo non è forse quella di amare tanto da provare più gioia a toccare un guanto bianco, a sfiorare una chioma, ad ascoltare una frase, a gettare uno sguardo, di quando di quanta non ne dia a un amante felice più completo possesso? Perciò, gl'innamorati respinti, le donne brutte, gl'infelici, gli amanti ignorati, i timidi, sono i soli a conoscere quali tesori racchiuda la voce della persona amata. Traendo la fonte e il principio dall'anima stessa, le vibrazioni dell'aria carica di fuoco fanno comunicare i cuori così violentemente, vi portano così lucidamente il pensiero, e sanno così poco mentire, che una sola inflessione vale spesso più di un discorso concluso. Quale incanto prodiga al cuore di un poeta di timbro armonioso in una dolce voce! Quante idee vi risveglia! Quale freschezza vi spande! Prima di essere confessato dallo sguardo, l'amore è già nella voce.
Honoré de Balzac (Ferragus, chef des Dévorants)
Women are taught to sacrifice, to play nice, to live an altruistic life because a good girl is always rewarded in the end. This is not a virtue; it is propaganda. Submission gets you a ticket to future prosperity that will never manifest. By the time you realize the ticket to success and happiness you have been sold isn’t worth the paper it was printed on, it will be too late. Go on, spend a quarter of your life, even half of your life, in the service of others and you will realize you were hustled. You do not manifest your destiny by placing others first! A kingdom built on your back doesn’t become your kingdom, it becomes your folly. History does not remember the slaves of Egypt that built the pyramids, they remember the Pharaohs that wielded the power over those laborers. Yet here you are, content with being a worker bee, motivated by some sales pitch that inspires you to work harder for some master than you work for yourself, with this loose promise that one day you will share in his wealth. Altruism is your sin. Selfishness is your savior. Ruthless aggression and self-preservation are not evil. Why aren’t females taught these things? Instead of putting themselves first, women are told to be considerate and selfless. From birth, they have been beaten in the head with this notion of “Don’t be selfish!” Fuck that. Your mother may have told you to wait your turn like a good girl, but I’m saying cut in front of that other bitch. Club Success is about to hit capacity, and you don’t want to be the odd woman out. Where are the powerful women? Those who refuse to play by those rules and want more out of life than what a man allows her to have? I created a category for such women and labeled them Spartans. Much like the Greek warriors who fought against all odds, these women refuse to surrender and curtsy before the status quo. Being

He will tell the galoi my story. My life away from them. And they will know what I have learned of sock shopping and noodle eating and cat keeping. And they will wonder at the differences in our universe. And because of you, they will see that there can be human somates, and human love and purple penises, and they will maybe talk a little more to humans. They will maybe open up their ships to visitors. And they will maybe consult your doctors for the secrets of human fertility. And they will maybe change. Because that is what zyga is for, in the end.

Elle and Olav had invited him into their bed. He’d declined, of course. Olav was hot, but Tris was not attracted to females, and it was bad form to participate in a sexual encounter with two when he was only interested in one. Everyone knew that. He thought this was likely a universal truth.

Before you go expecting men to treat you like Ivanka Trump, get your life in order. If you want more out of the men that approach you, first demand more out of yourself. Investing in education leads to more money, working out leads to a healthy body, and dealing with your emotional baggage leads to a happier you. All of those things contribute to high self-esteem, and you will never reach your potential without a full tank of that.

When other birds are still, the screech owls take up the strain, like mourning women their ancient u-lu-lu. Their dismal scream is truly Ben Jonsonian.( Wise midnight hags! It is no honest and blunt tu-whit tu-who of the poets, but, without jesting, a most solemn graveyard ditty, the mutual consolations of suicide lovers remembering the pangs and the delights of supernal love in the infernal groves. Yet I love to hear their wailing, their doleful responses, trilled along the woodside; reminding me sometimes of music and singing birds; as if it were the dark and tearful side of music, the regrets and sighs that would fain be sung. They are the spirits, the low spirits and melancholy forebodings, of fallen souls that once in human shape night-walked the earth and did the deeds of darkness, now expiating their sins with their wailing hymns or threnodies in the scenery of their transgressions. They give me a new sense of the variety and capacity of that nature which is our common dwelling. Oh-o-o-o-o that I never had been bor-r-r-r-n! sighs one on this side of the pond, and circles with the restlessness of despair to some new perch on the gray oaks. Then — that I never had been bor-r-r-r-n! echoes another on the farther side with tremulous sincerity, and — bor-r-r-r-n! comes faintly from far in the Lincoln woods. I was also serenaded by a hooting owl. Near at hand you could fancy it the most melancholy sound in Nature, as if she meant by this to stereotype and make permanent in her choir the dying moans of a human being — some poor weak relic of mortality who has left hope behind, and howls like an animal, yet with human sobs, on entering the dark valley, made more awful by a certain gurgling melodiousness — I find myself beginning with the letters gl when I try to imitate it — expressive of a mind which has reached the gelatinous, mildewy stage in the mortification of all healthy and courageous thought. It reminded me of ghouls and idiots and insane howlings. But now one answers from far woods in a strain made really melodious by distance — Hoo hoo hoo, hoorer hoo; and indeed for the most part it suggested only pleasing associations, whether heard by day or night, summer or winter. I rejoice that there are owls. Let them do the idiotic and maniacal hooting for men. It is a sound admirably suited to swamps and twilight woods which no day illustrates, suggesting a vast and undeveloped nature which men have not recognized. They represent the stark twilight and unsatisfied thoughts which all have. All day the sun has shone on the surface of some savage swamp, where the double spruce stands hung with usnea lichens, and small hawks circulate above, and the chickadee lisps amid the evergreens, and the partridge and rabbit skulk beneath; but now a more dismal and fitting day dawns, and a different race of creatures awakes to express the meaning of Nature there.
Henry David Thoreau (Walden)
R.G.: The more people think that they are realizing the Utopias dreamed up by their desire – in other words, the more they embrace ideologies of liberation – the more they will in fact be working to reinforce the competitive world that is stifling them. But they do not realize their mistake; and continue to systematically confuse the type of external obstacle represented by the prohibition and the internal obstacle formed by the mimetic partner... At the very moment the last prohibitions are being forgotten, there are still a number of intellectuals who continue to refer to them as if they were more and more crippling... G.L.: You are going to get yourself branded as a dreadful reactionary again. R.G.: That would not be at all fair. I do find it absurd that people should greet with a fanfare the liberation of a desire that is not being constrained by anyone. But I find it even more absurd to hear people calling for a return to constraints, which is impossible. From the moment cultural forms begin to dissolve, any attempt to reconstitute them artificially can only result in the most appalling tyranny.
René Girard (Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World)
Just as calories differ according to how they affect the body, so too do carbohydrates. All carbohydrates break down into sugar, but the rate at which this occurs in the digestive tract varies tremendously from food to food. This difference forms the basis for the glycemic index (GI). The GI ranks carbohydrate-containing foods according to how they affect blood glucose, from 0 (no affect at all) to 100 (equal to glucose). Gram for gram, most starchy foods raise blood glucose to very high levels and therefore have high GI values. In fact, highly processed grain products – like white bread, white rice, and prepared breakfast cereals – and the modern white potato digest so quickly that their GI ratings are even greater than table sugar (sucrose). So for breakfast, you could have a bowl of cornflakes with no added sugar, or a bowl of sugar with no added cornflakes. They would taste different but, below the neck, act more or less the same. A related concept is the glycemic load (GL), which accounts for the different carbohydrate content of foods typically consumed. Watermelon has a high GI, but relatively little carbohydrate in a standard serving, producing a moderate GL. In contrast, white potato has a high GI and lots of carbohydrate in a serving, producing a high GL. If this sounds a bit complicated, think of GI as describing how foods rank in a laboratory setting, whereas GL as applying more directly to a real-life setting. Research has shown that the GL reliably predicts, to within about 90 percent, how blood glucose will change after an actual meal – much better than simply counting carbohydrates as people with diabetes have been taught to do.
David Ludwig (Always Hungry?: Conquer Cravings, Retrain Your Fat Cells, and Lose Weight Permanently)
L’azione della Chiesa cattolica, guardata nella storia, o si attua anch’essa ai fini della civiltà, del sapere, del costume, dell’ordinamento politico e sociale, della vita mondana, del progresso umano, come si vide spiccatamentenella sua grande epoca, quando serbò gran parte del retaggio del mondo antico e difese i diritti della coscienzae della libertà e della vita spirituale contro genti barbariche e contro le prepotenze materialistiche di imperatori edi re; ovvero, perduto quest’ufficio o perduta l’egemonia che in esso esercitava e soverchiata dalla civiltà che essa stessa aveva concorso a generare, si restringe a tutrice di forme invecchiate e morte, d’incultura, d’ignoranza, di superstizione, di oppressione spirituale, e si fa a sua volta, dal più al meno, materialistica. La storia, che è storia della libertà, si comprova più forte di quella sua dottrina o di quel programma, e lo sconfigge e lo sforza a contradirsi nel campo dei fatti. Il Rinascimento, che non fu un’impossibile ripristinazione dell’antichità precristiana, e la Riforma, che del pari non fu quella, non meno impossibile, del cristianesimo primitivo, ma l’uno e l’altra avviamento alla concezione moderna della realtà e della idealità, segnano la decadenza interiore del cattolicesimo in quanto potenza spirituale; e questa decadenza non diè luogo a rigenerazione e non fu arrestata, ma, anzi, resa irrimediabile dalla reazione della Controriforma, quando venne salvato il corpo e non l’anima della vecchia Chiesa, il suo dominio mondano e non quello sugl’intelletti,e si compié opera politica ma non religiosa. La scienza, che col porglisi a fianco sostenitrice e cooperatrice dimostra la superiorità di un determinato ideale morale e politico, disertò la Chiesa cattolica; e tutti gl’ingegni originali e creatori, filosofi, naturalisti, storici, letterati,pubblicisti, passarono o furono costretti a passare o furono accolti ed ebbero seguaci nel campo avverso.

There are certain unwritten rules in high school. High on the list, close to the top, is one that says. ‘Thou shalt not have sex with your best friend’s girl’. - A simple rule, understood by all. - Danny Carrs totally ignored it. Another rule even higher on the list says: ‘Thou shalt not beat the crap out of the star quarterback two days before the play-off game.’ I sort of ignored that one. I figured it made us even. Needless to say, the jerks at school didn’t see it my way.

«Ma se nessuno di voi fa circolare la notizia che Voldemort è tornato...» cominciò Harry. «Chi ha detto che nessuno di noi fa circolare la notizia?» disse Sirius. «Perché credi che Silente sia così nei guai?» «Che cosa intendi dire?» chiese Harry. «Stanno cercando di screditarlo» rispose Lupin. «Non hai letto La Gazzetta del Profeta la settimana scorsa? Hanno scritto che è stato estromesso dalla Presidenza della Confederazione Internazionale dei Maghi perché sta invecchiando e perde il controllo, ma non è vero, è stato escluso dai maghi del Ministero dopo che ha tenuto un discorso per annunciare il ritorno di Voldemort. L’hanno retrocesso dalla carica di Stregone Capo del Wizengamot – è l’Alta Corte dei Maghi – e stanno decidendo se levargli anche l’Ordine di Merlino, Prima Classe». «Ma Silente dice che non gl’importa di quello che fanno finché non lo tolgono dalle figurine delle Cioccorane» disse Bill con un gran sorriso.

To look for love points to a lack of love internally, a need to fill the void. Every time you wake up and look in the mirror, you are falling in love. Every time you walk out into your world with your sun shining down, you will know love. Many men will love you, but none of their love will ever match the love you have for yourself

All'improvviso, il ronzare del motorino che aveva udito pochi istanti prima si fece più intenso. Si voltò di colpo, sapendo che non era ammessa la circolazione di veicoli a motore su Ponte Vecchio. Stava perfino per dire qualcosa. Ma i rimproveri gli rimasero bloccati in gola. Lo scooter superò il netturbino. Il motociclista incrociò lo sguardo dell'addetto del Comune e proseguì dritto. Si fermò a un metro da lui. Paolini esaminò il suo volto anonimo mentre l'uomo estraeva dalla giacca una piccola rivoltella nera. Se la vide puntare addosso e, prima che potesse capire perché, udì il primo dei tre spari. Il gallerista si accasciò a terra, il ventre sanguinante.
