- How High We Go In The Dark
After school she'd study the news, comb the internet for disasters, wars and hate and injustice, write it all down in these color-coded journals. Once, I asked her what she was doing, and she said she was just trying to keep track of it all because it didn't seem like anybody else noticed or cared that we kept making the same mistakes, that hate in a neighbourhood or injustice in a state ran like poison through veins, until another ice shelf collapsed or another animal went extinct.
Cassandra Clare - City of Glass
- Jace's Speech
And now I'm looking at you," he said, "and you're asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before - bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle and Alec, but it took years to do it - but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.
Dr House - House MD
Our bodies break down, sometimes when we're 90, sometimes before we're even born, but it always happens and there's never any dignity in it. I don't care if you can walk, see, wipe your own ass. It's always ugly. Always. You can live with dignity, we can't die with it.
Allanon - The Shannara Chronicles
The events leading us to this moment have been unfurling for centuries. Wil lies here because he has yet to reconcile who he is with who the stones already know him to be. You ran the Gauntlet trying to find your place in life and yet destiny had already found it for you. Everything, all of this, is not happening because of you; it's happening to you. The sooner you accept that, the better.
Wil Ohmsford - The Shannara Chronicles
So I'm supposed to use elfstones, I don't have, to protect a princess, who doesn't want to be found, from a demon horde bent on laying waste to the world? And even if I succeed, which is entirely doubtful, my life could still be doomed because magic will have fried my brain? I liked it better when we didn't talk.
Steven Moffat
- The Day of the Doctor
They're you. They're what you become if you destroy Gallifrey. A man who regrets. And the man who forgets. The Moment is coming. The Moment is me. You have to decide.
