“Sometimes the best course in the search for the meaning of life is to busy yourself until you forget that you don't know the meaning of life”

“I don’t know. After the downstairs, I assumed something creepier and dirtier.” Ishrugged. “You didn’t have electricity down there.”“It’s for dramatic effect.” Loki gestured widely. “It’s a dungeon.”

“Who was that?” I whispered, as if the walls could hear me. They were lined with pictures, a few of which I recognized as being painted by master painters.“Rhys.”“Yeah, I know but… is he my brother?” I asked. I had already decided that he was foxy, so I really hoped that he wasn‟t.”

“I don't need love or a man to complete me,and someday, you'll find that true for yourself. Suitors will come and go, but you will remain.”

“I don't want only one night. I want all the nights. I want all of you, forever.”

“You should get married more often," Loki teased. "It makes you feisty.”

“Everything I went through," he said. "For you. It was worth it.”

“Princess." He smiled up at me, but it was weak. "If i'd known that this is what it would take to get you to hold me, I would've collapsed a long time ago.”

“And I'm stuck in it with no way out. I love you, and I can't stop, and you don't even care!”

“What I told you before is still true. I want to know that when you're with me, it's because you want to be, not because you have to be.”

“Oh yeah. That's why. Like a fairy tale. I was marrying the Prince. I just happened to be in love with the pauper.”

“He might as well have been telling me to build a damn rocketship. I had no idea what to do.”

“Right then, it didn't matter what his reasons were. All I knew that I was sick of him breaking my heart.”

“As I drifted off to sleep, I could hear him breathing, and that definitely helped me relax.”

“Tove had blown the doors open with his abilities, and he stood on the other side of them, looking astonishigly bad ass.”

“As a rule, I don't enjoy being tossed into closets and having the door shut on my face, but I knew he was protecting me.”

“He stepped into my room with one graceful move, as if entering through bedroom windows was nothing out of the ordinary.”

“Did you think you could treat me like shit at a dance, then sneak into my room in the middle of the night and tell me that I'm a troll with magical powers, and I'd just be like, yeah, that sounds right.”

“I wanted to show you that it's not all cold and intimidating," Finn explained. "I wanted you to see something warm and beautiful.”

“Not to sound, you know, like a dick," Jack said carefully. "But you just dragged us out of bed to show us Jane's messy room? That's not really an emergency Mae.""She's not here!" Mae shouted, gesturing to the mess around her. "That's the emergency." "Again, not to be a dick, but that's not really an emergency." Jack said.”

“In case you haven't noticed, I'm a lover not a fighter.”

“The only consent hinge in life is that everyhin is changing. And that's a little scary, but it means that hints can't be bad or hard forever.”

“What's your angle?" I asked, trying to sound more playful than demanding."Isosceles," Jack quipped.”

“I'm probably gonna have to buy like a massive entertainment center for all of these movies," Jack said, staring up at his DVD's. It overwhelmed him for a minute, so he sighed, and finally turned back to look at me. I have no idea what he was planning to say, but his jaw fell open and his eyes widened. "Holy Hell.”

“I haven’t prepared my speech yet,” I sighed and Tove stood up. “What should I say about him?” “Well, if you plan to say anything nice, you’re going to have to lie,” Tove muttered as he walked over to his closet.”

“Finn: I look at you because I can't look away Wendy.Wendy: That's kinda creepy.Finn: I will work on being less creepy then.”

“Wendy: Why are you staring at me?Finn: Because you're standing in front of me.”

“Being liked for the way you looked is worse than not being liked at all.”
