“Feel the spirit and love life!”

“Believe in yourself, believe in love.”

“Always be true to your heart!”

“How mutable are our feelings, and how strange is that clinging love we have of life even in the excess of misery!”

“Ka was the essence of teh person: spirit, intelligence, feelings and passions, humor, grudges, annoying television theme songs, all the things that make a person a person and not a nematode.”

“The different accidents of life are not so changeable as the feelings of human nature.”

“By the sacred earth on which I kneel, by the shades that wander near me, by the deep and eternal grief that I feel, I swear; and by thee, O Night, and the spirits that preside over thee, to pursue the demon who caused this misery, until he or I shall perish in mortal conflict.”
