Trevor Roberts - Guts 'n Giddyup Route (missing second half because text limits)
The Guts 'n Giddyup Route is a self-guiding tour available to visitors with limited spelunking or diving experience and in good physical condition. This 4.75-mile tour follows the original explorers route, entering the sand gullet from the base of the Lower Visitor Center. This route descends over 750 feet into the pit, following slippery and narrow flesh tunnels through a large dorsal organ called the Trunk.

Ursula K. Le Guin - Tenar to Therru -- Tehanu
"You are beautiful," Tenar said in a different tone. "Listen to me, Therru. Come here. You have scars, ugly scars, because an ugly, evil thing was done to you. People see the scars. But they see you, too, and you aren't the scars. You aren't ugly. You aren't evil. You are Therru, and beautiful. You are Therru who can work, and walk, and run, and dance, beautifully, in a red dress.

Tumblr user personsonable - What the mushroom said
Can you feel your heart burning? Can you feel the struggle within? The fear within me is beyond anything your soul can make. You cannot kill me in a way that matters.

Ursula K. Le Guin - Earthsea: The Farthest Shore
You will die. You will not live forever. Nor will any man nor anything. Nothing is immortal. But only to us is it given to know that we must die. And that is a great gift: the gift of selfhood. For we have only what we know we must lose, what we are willing to lose... That selfhood which is our torment, and our treasure, and our humanity, does not endure. It changes; it is gone, a wave on the sea. Would you have the sea grow still and the tides cease, to save one wave, to save yourself?

Zdzisław Beksiński
The beauty of the painting rests upon something inside of us that resonates or not with the painted thing. Additionally, the beauty of a painting should not be confused with the beauty of the subject.

Spaces
Because errors are recorded in per word, spaces are counted only as separators, and therefore, an extra space won't count as an error. Try it out. Put an extra space in here somewhere.

Fun with word frequency
From they have that in a and of to be the this and then you do you. Despite being complete nonsense, that sentence was pretty easy to type, wasn't it? That's because it was made up of very common English words. This means that you've practiced typing each of them many times. It's not just word frequency though. Etass theron etaoin shrdlu. Those were words you've probably never typed before, but it wasn't that hard, was it? Those are very common letters and letter combinations.

Hayao Miyazaki - Princess Mononoke (song from the end)
In the moonlight I felt your heart quiver like a bowstring's pulse. In the moon's mere light, you looked at me. Nobody knows your heart. When the sun has gone I see you, beautiful and haunting but cold. Like the blade of a knife so sharp, so sweet. Nobody knows your heart. All of your sorrow grief and pain, locked away in the forest of the night. Your secret heart belongs to the world of the things that sigh in the dark. Or the things that cry in the dark.

Hayao Miyazaki - Princess Mononoke
You cannot alter your fate, my prince. However, you can rise to meet it, if you choose. Look at this. This iron ball was found in the boar's body. This is what hurt him so. It shattered his bones and burned its way deep inside him. This is what turned him into a demon. There is evil at work in the land to the west, Prince Ashitaka. It's your fate to go there and see what you can see with eyes unclouded by hate.

Smash Mouth - All Star
Somebody once told me, the world is gonna role me, I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed. She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her thumb in the shape of an L on her forehead. Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming, and they don't stop coming, and they don't stop coming, and they don't stop coming, and they don't stop coming...

Ursula K. Le Guin - The Left Hand of Darkness
Light is the left hand of darkness and darkness the right hand of light. Two are one, life and death, lying together like lovers in kemmer, like hands joined together, like the end and the way.

grammarist.com - Fly off the Handle
"Fly off the handle" is an American phrase that comes from the way an axe-head which has come loose will fly off of its handle in an unpredictable manner and strike any innocent person or object in its way.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry - The Little Prince
To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world...

Kirsten Lepore - Hi Stranger
I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I see you trying to do so many things at once, worrying about a decision you made or worried that you said the wrong thing to someone. You're so hard on yourself, but you're wonderful. And worthy of being loved. You really are. You just have to let yourself believe it. Well, I know you're really busy, and you probably have to go... But I'm glad I got to see you for a minute. I love you.

Victor E Frankl - Man’s Search for Meaning
A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering is great or little. Therefore the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative.
