I’ve been running from love for so long I don’t know if I can stop even if I want to,” I say, looking away. “I’ll try, but be patient with me.” Westin pulls me flush against him, causing my eyes to flash to his. “I’m faster than you are. I’m ready to show you.
Corinne Michaels (You Loved Me Once)
The Tudors hated to be wrong, and therefore never were.
Jeane Westin (His Last Letter: Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester)
Westin celebrated the New Year by shooting off some hand flares. Orders were “no fireworks,” but you couldn’t expect several hundred thousand men in a war zone, armed to the teeth with explosive devices, to follow an order like that.
Mark Bowden (Hue 1968: A Turning Point of the American War in Vietnam)
I won’t need wild, heart-stopping, soul-shattering love. I need steady. I need a rock that will anchor me when I feel like I’m floating away. Westin could be that. Maybe Westin is the guy who is supposed to hold me up when I’m falling down. I’ve never had that before.
Corinne Michaels (You Loved Me Once)

Jeane Westin (His Last Letter: Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester)
Nevertheless, many people are now convinced that the attacks of September 11 say little about Islam and much about the sordid career of the West—in particular, about the failures of U.S. foreign policy.
Sam Harris (The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason)
To bend, sometimes it's more important to care about somebody than to obey the letter of a rule.
Jean Westin
Resigned to the fact that surgery advances faster than social norms, I had my eyes transplanted to my nipples. Finally, you saw me.   *

Jeane Westin (His Last Letter: Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester)
Majesty, there is less danger in fearing too much than too little.
Jeane Westin (His Last Letter: Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester)
Sovereigns did not have the luxury of second-guessing or all future commands could be questioned. That could never be. God did not allow his anointed to be wrong.
Jeane Westin (His Last Letter: Elizabeth I and the Earl of Leicester)
She was no sworn wife, but Robin was the only man she ever loved as a husband... though not as much as her crown and thrown. The truth that tore at her breast, turning her about in circles, because he had known... he had known his love was greater than hers. Though it was not, she never could explain it rightly. No man understood, that he was not everything to the woman he loved.

Oh, Soo-Lin! I must confess, the Westin is nothing like I described in my holiday verse. Where do I begin? All night self-closing doors slam, the plumbing chugs whenever a toilet is flushed, and any time someone takes a shower, it sounds like a teakettle whistling in my ear. Families of foreign tourists save their conversations until they’re standing outside our door. The mini-fridge rattles and hums so much you think it’s about to spring to life. Garbage trucks screech and collect dumpsterfuls of clanging bottles at 1 AM. Then the bars let out, and the streets fill with people yelling at one another in gravelly, drunken voices. All the talk involves cars. “Get in the car.” “I’m not getting in the car.” “Shut up, or you’re not getting in the car.” “Nobody tells me I can’t get into my own car.” That’s a lullaby compared to the alarm clock.

5. Mr. Koenig reports that he detected traces of smoke and an uncharacteristic odor in the hallway, which in his opinion was “weed.” 6. Mr. Koenig reports that he tracked the noise and smell to Room 1605. 7. Mr. Koenig reports that he knocked on the door and identified himself, at which time the music was turned off and all noise ceased. The momentary silence was followed by giggling. 8. Mr. Koenig reports that Ms. Griffin, wearing a hotel robe, approached him in the hallway and strongly suggested he was knocking on the wrong door, as Room 1605 belonged to her son, Kyle, who was asleep. 9. Mr. Koenig reports that after he explained to Ms. Griffin that Room 1605 was the source of the noise, she then expressed her low opinion of him, using words such as “idiot,” “moron,” and “incompetent dummy.” 10. Mr. Koenig reports that he advised Ms. Griffin of Westin policy regarding verbal abuse. Ms. Griffin then expressed her low opinion of the Westin facility with terms such as “dump,” “fleabag,” and “pig hole.” 11. Mr. Koenig reports that while Ms. Griffin’s negative assessment continued, her husband, WARREN GRIFFIN, appeared in the hallway, squinting and wearing boxer shorts.
Maria Semple (Where'd You Go, Bernadette)
I got the recurring itch to hunt for a dirty scene.  I found myself in a swank hotel bar, a Westin or someplace like that, and flirted shamelessly with a well-dressed man who invited me up to his room.  I could say he slipped a Mickey into my drink, but, I’d be fooling myself.  When the endorphins kicked in, the man had his belt around my neck and choked me, while riding me from behind and calling me names.  Afterward, he asked if I was okay and reminded me I agreed to this type of breath play.  Maybe I did.

I think hard times is harder on a man, ’cause a woman will do something. Women just seem to know where they can save or where they can help, more than a man. It’s just a worry for him, and he feels so terrible when he can’t take care of his family.
Jeane Westin (Making Do)
So here I was in San Francisco with a degree, and I thought it would make a difference. The first job I applied for was at American Insurance Company. I expected maybe a clerical job, but there were none there—those jobs weren’t open for Oriental people at that time. Then I tried a ladies’ apparel shop as a stock girl. That wasn’t even open to me. Oh, they don’t tell you right out to your face—but you have that feeling.

For my vacation rental business, Escape Club, we had a session to brainstorm how we could make the business more successful. It yielded modest results. A few days later, I called the team back and asked a different question: “What is something Escape Club can provide that no one else on the island is doing?” The results were amazing. Within thirty minutes we had come up with really powerful ideas, including exclusive access to services like a miniature golf course and renting the company’s pontoon—something no one else had on the island. We also decided to offer luxury services like Westin Heavenly beds and to develop a consistent feel between properties. Lastly, we realized that we could link up the properties for weddings and other events. The results of all this? We were able to cross-promote our properties and get a higher return rate of customers.

RAIN. R: recognize A: allow I: investigate N: non-identification “Recognize” was self-explanatory. Using my David Westin example, in those moments after our—even in the best light—quite ambivalent meeting, job number one was simply to acknowledge my feelings. “It’s like agreeing to pause in the face of what’s here, and just acknowledge the actuality,” said Brach. The first step is admitting it. “Allow” is where you lean into it. The

Westin’s ubiquitous and influential idea conceives of privacy as a claim: the ‘claim of individuals, groups, or institutions to determine for themselves when, how, and to what extent information about them is communicated to others’.
Raymond Wacks (Privacy: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions))
Miss Clem, there are two men in the market!” I blinked, wondering what this had to do with me. Whether she was attempting to play matchmaker, which she had woefully done with me in the past. “Are men forbidden from the market these days, Miss Westin?” “If only they could be,” the baker countered, but then pondered on such a possibility, and her face creased with a frown. “Although my business would suffer for it. But no, there are two men— strangers —lurking about town, asking about your father.

Endless peace and a certain desolation – especially in the evenings. It’s been stormy nearly all the time and out on the point the house has been thoroughly ventilated. Breakers all round and the weirdest illusory sensation of voices, steps and music in the wind. In particular, the acoustic phenomenon of rhythmic violin music when I want to sleep has been a bit disturbing. You become different and think new thoughts when you live a long time alone with the sea and yourself.

I’m afraid that all my life I shall be an unpolitical = asocial painter, a so-called individualist depicting lemons, writing fairy tales, collecting weird objects as a hobby and detesting associations and societies. It seems rather silly, but that’s the way I want my life. And if I fight, it’s only so as to find peace,’ she wrote in February 1949.

Robert bowed to the inevitable. The queen's motto, 'I see all and speak nothing." was as well chosen as any motto could be. He had almost made his old mistake of confusing what Elizabeth said with what she would do.
