E.E. Cummings (E.E. Cummings: Complete Poems 1904-1962 (Revised, Corrected, and Expanded Edition))
Fighting with siblings, especially the little ones, has always, and will always be the same. You fight with your hands tied behind your back. You know that you'll lose. But you still fight back, either you want to annoy them or let them feel the extra satisfaction of beating you after a long fight. No matter which of the two ways you take, it clearly shows that you love them. A lot.
Nishanth Anchan K.N.

Millions of books written on every conceivable subject by all these great minds, and, and in the end, none of 'em knows anything more about the big questions of life than I do. Ss--I read Socrates. You know, n-nn--, this guy used to kn-knock off little Greek boys. What the hell's he got to teach me? And, and Nietzsche with his, with his Theory of Eternal Recurrence. He said that the life we live, we're gonna live over and over again the exact same way for eternity. Great. (MORE) MICKEY (V.O.) (CONT'D) That means I, uh, I'll have to sit through the Ice Capades again. Tch. It's not worth it. The movie next cuts to a sunny day in Central Park. A male jogger, seen through some tree branches, runs by. The camera moves past him, revealing a pondering Mickey walking by the reservoir. He continues to talk over the screen. MICKEY (V.O.) And, and Freud, another great pessimist. Jeez, I was in analysis for years. Nothing happened. My poor analyst got so frustrated. The guy finally put in a salad bar.

K.N. Smith (The Urban Boys: Discovery of the Five Senses)
Carey, my best advice is this. Do better than them. Be smarter. Ace tests and kick ass. They’re trying to bring you down to prove they’re better than you. Don’t let them. Be pretty, be tough, be whatever you want to be. Don’t let them dictate the terms of your life. It’s your life, not theirs.

Why I Cannot Relate "What do you think of this piece?" Someone will ask About some work or form of expression in time What does it mean? They want Me To tell them my thoughts But sometimes My thoughts run so deep I cannot tell them So instead I want to say i DoNt KnOw Because that is the only thing that makes sense to them I cannot relate sometimes Frustration of society So I seclude myself But I actually would like to find that one person Who would like to know those thoughts I cannot express That person will take the time To relate Truly understand So that way when I say i DoNt KnOw They will actually realize That I know much more.

I made my own choices as well, Heath.” “Would you change any of them?” he asked, giving me a soulful look. “No.” I didn’t even need to think about it but offered an explanation. “To change any of the decisions I’ve made would potentially make me feel as though I’m not living up to my own beliefs or make me a hypocrite. My beliefs in what’s right, what’s wrong, and what’s in between. I won’t ever change what I’ve done, and I don’t regret any of it.
K.N. Banet (Royal Pawn (Jacky Leon, #6))
I suspected this might happen,” she said, struggling to regain some form of composure. “Kn-knowing of your reputation with women, I knew you might someday make an advance to me.” “What just happened between us was not an ‘advance,’” he said thickly. She did not look at him. “If I am to remain as a guest in your household, we must forget this incident.” “Incident,” he repeated scornfully. “This has been building between us for months, since the first time we met.” “It has not,” she countered, while her heart hammered in her throat, nearly choking her into silence. “I won't deny that I find you attractive, I… any woman would. But if you are under the misconception that I would become your mistress—” “No,” he said, his huge hands coming to the sides of her face, fingers curving around the back of her skull. He urged her face upward, and Holly quailed at the look in his dark, passionate eyes. “No, I never thought that,” he said, his voice turning raspy. “I want more from you than that. I want—” “Don't say anything else,” Holly begged, closing her eyes tightly. “We've both gone mad. Let me go this instant. Now, before you make it impossible for me to stay at your estate any longer.” Although she hadn't expected the words to affect him, they seemed to make great impact. There was a long, taut silence. Slowly his hands eased their possessive grip and dropped away. “There's no reason for you to leave my home,” he said. “We'll handle this however you like.” The clutch of panic began to ease from her throat. “I—I want to ignore this as if it never happened.” “All right,” he said at once, although his gaze was frankly skeptical. “You set the rules, my lady.
Lisa Kleypas (Where Dreams Begin)
Wait, he’s missing a leg? Are you serious?” He nodded. “His left. That’s why he was sh-showing me his b-b-boots earlier today. He just had them…f-fitted for the prosthetic.” She thought he’d just been showing off his cowboy boots. Dipshit. She thought of all the boxes he had carried and all the trips he had made for smaller things. He’d never mentioned anything of the sort, and she’d not even noticed a hitch in his gait. “Damn, I feel even worse that he helped me now.” Zeke frowned at her. “Why? Just b-because he’s missing a leg it doesn’t mean he’s any less of a man. He doesn’t want to be kn-known by his injuries. None of us do.” Ember
J.M. Madden (Embattled Minds (Lost and Found, #2))
Why should I carry the guilt and beg forgiveness for an act I didn’t orchestrate? And if I’ve never done anything evil with this power, why is the power evil?” Raphael shook his head. “Someone out there will probably say I’m wrong, that I should repent, but I won’t keep something in my life that only shames me. I have more important things to worry about than my immortal soul.

K.N. Banet (Bitter Discord (Jacky Leon, #8))
I know this won’t ease the hurt… but one day, you’ll meet friends who are willing to stand beside you when it’s hard for you to stand at all. The ones who will look fear in the face with you and stay as they hold out a hand to help you up. Those will be the ones you take with you as you get older and face harder challenges.
K.N. Banet (Bitter Discord (Jacky Leon, #8))

I switched from the surgical masks to the KN95 masks and found that I had an irritated and sore throat. I have stopped wearing them and have gone back to the surgical masks. I think the KN95 cause too much restriction in air flow and may damage the respiratory system with long term use.

This is what trauma does to us. It makes us edgy and destroys our trust in the simplest things. We have to work to get it back. It’s never the same, though. It will never be the same, Raphael.

K.N. Banet (Destiny (Kaliya Sahni, #6))
Turns out my eyes are not as fast as my legs. No matter how hard I try. This quote from author K.N Martin's book "Precious Gem" puts forth the way in which the main character struggles with what she expects versus what, in turn, happens. No doubt, she runs fast but reads slowly. This difference brings light to one of the very famous conceptions regarding stories relating to youngsters: struggles between natural talents and life's demands. It also symbolizes the bigger challenges she is facing, showing that even with special talents, she still has to face up against everyday problems which need hard work and patience. It reminds that everyone feels inadequate sometimes and has things they need to work harder at to succeed.

Andrea bangs his head on the table and Poto meows. He’s silent, not knowing what to do. "What do you mean, then he has to go away? When is he back? Did he tell you?" "I don’t know," she says desperately. "The problem is he’s already here..." "Huh?" he blurts out, standing up. "Here? Where?" he asks, running his hand through his hair. "Here, at the minimarket, where else? He gave me no choice. I don’t get how he got here." "How does he kn.." A sudden pang in his temple stops him. "Do you have the active location set on the map?

It’s okay to be scared, Jacky. Even after everything we’ve faced and been through, it’s okay to be afraid. It doesn’t make you weak.” “I know,” I said with a smile, but for some reason, Heath’s eyes grew sad again. I didn’t understand why until I was inside and alone. “I know,” I repeated to myself.

If you screw me, I’ll get back at you,” I warned softly, a foolish thing to do, but after Lauren’s double-cross and her intention to leave me with the mess once she was out, I didn’t have it in me to be betrayed one more time. “Lauren was going to leave me to deal with the repercussions of what she was doing, what I was going to help her with.

There was another group of clusters that look much more familiar to us, because even though we don’t pronounce them anymore, they live on in our spelling. The ‘wr’ of wrist, wrong, and wrath. The ‘kn’ of knot, knit, and knee. The ‘gn’ of gnaw and gnat, the ‘mb’ of comb and lamb, the ‘wh’ of what, where, and why. These were fully pronounced, with both sounds in the cluster, sometimes for hundreds of years after their spellings were established in print. Sometimes, in some dialects, even until today.

Real strength was standing tall in the face of adversity, not accolades or victory on the battlefield. It wasn’t magical powers or standing on top as a ruler. Real strength was much simpler, and anyone was capable of it. It’s standing against those who would do you harm when no one expects you to. When the odds are so against you, no one dared ask for it. It’s standing against an adversary because it was the right thing to do, even if defeat was inevitable.

He’s not a bad man, but the last five months have flown by. I don’t think we’ve found our footing, not really. We survive and make each other smile when we see each other, but I don’t know if I’m happy, not with the way things are right now. It might not even be him. It could be a combination of everything, and he just happens to be the closest thing. It’s not like I’m unhappy. I just don’t know if this is what I want in my life because I haven’t had the time to think about it. I haven’t had a real chance to process fucking anything.

At an early period, the peoples of Canaan had differentiated into distinct regional subgroups, part of which development was the emergence of regional dialects, some of which in turn became national languages. Phoenician was one such regional Canaanite dialect: in the strictest meaning, Phoenician was the language spoken along the coast of Lebanon roughly from Sidon in the North to Acco in the South.

Ponnim was also the name of the Canaanite dialect of the region. It is this toponym and gentilic that are the origin of Greek φοινικες and Latin Poenus and punicus, the terms by which Greeks and Romans first came to know and call the Phoenicians; and is the term by which they are still called.
