“Charm, amuse, inspire, tempt, overwhelm, dazzle. Will you earn reward? (195)”
“The charm of horror only tempts the strong”
“Really! But weren't you fearfully tempted?' 'In the abstract but not in the concrete,' said Ursula. 'When it comes to the point, one isn't even tempted—oh, if I were tempted, I'd marry like a shot. I'm only tempted NOT to.' The faces of both sisters suddenly lit up with amusement.”
“For we each of us deserve everything, every luxury that was ever piled in the tombs of the dead kings, and we each of us deserve nothing, not a mouthful of bread in hunger. Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think.”
“There is little required to encourage another; the adventure it inspires is your reward.”
“When you work to inspire others...Your reward is in helping better themselves, lifting your life in the process.”
