Homer, translated by Emily Wilson
- The Iliad
Goddess, sing of the cataclysmic wrath of great Achilles, son of Peleus, which caused the Greeks immeasurable pain and sent so many noble souls of heroes to Hades.
Coach Nick Saban
- What it takes to retain greatness
The process of repeating as national champion requires more attention. It can't be about trying to prove something, because you've kind of already done that. It needs to be about: Do you want to be the best you can be? Are you driven to be the best player you can be? Are you driven to have the intensity, the sense of urgency, the intelligence? Are you going to work to do the things you need to do to be your absolute best? And that's not normal. Everybody think's it's normal, but it's not normal.

- A story to practice typing
Once upon a time, in a land of rolling hills and clear skies, there was a village where the people were known for their exceptional typing skills. They held a festival each year to celebrate the art of typing, where the fastest and most accurate typists were honored.

But in my dreams, I played a different role. I was Monique Chabeau in post-war France. The good girls call me the town bicycle, don't knock until you tried my life of sin. Oh, Claude, my pimp knows not to mess with me. The last prick that did it faded quick to black. I have no idea where to find him officers, but if you do please mention that I'd like to have returned the pretty knife that I stuck ten times in his back.

The Taj Mahal was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 for being "the jewel of Islamic art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage."

- How to remove quotes?
I have added a few quotes to this website that I'm very much embarrassed about. I shouldn't have added them for they are so silly and stupid. Now I want to remove them but I don't know where the "remove quote" button is. Does anybody know how to remove your quotes? Post your solution as a quote so that I can read it.

- Pilate and Christ
Pilate: "Oh, so this is Jesus Christ, I am really quite surprised. You look so small not a king at all. We all know that you are news but are you king? King of the Jews?" Jesus: "That's what you say" Pilate: "What do you mean by that? That is not an answer. You're deep in trouble, friend. Someone Christ king of the Jews. How can someone in your state be so cool about your fate? An amazing thing, this silent king. Since you come from Galilee, then you need not come to me. You're Herod's case!"

- The Last Apprentice: Curse of the Bane - Chap. 1
Their two-wheel cart was outside, the equipment covered with a waterproof sheet, the patient horse between the shafts steaming in the rain. Typist here, did you know quotes need to be at least 150 characters on this website? Seems silly to me.

- Needs
Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like being liked, I enjoy being liked, I have to be liked. But it's not like this compulsive need to be liked, like my need to be praised.

- In Another Life
In another life, I would have known you from the start. Maybe we would've become something more than nothing. In another life, you would've been the one who wrote this quote. Maybe you would've wanted to say many things to me but instead, you were forced to write here. In another life, you felt the same. Maybe you cared for me, but that's in another life.

- To My Teen Self
Those aren't friends. They're not. Really. Think about it! Would a friend slap your head? Would a friend yell at you? Would a friend make you sad on purpose. No. Real friends don't love to hear about how bad your life is. Real friends don't call you fat and tell you never to try. A real friend wouldn't shove you away and blame their decisions on you either! Those aren't your friends. And you are worth so much more than that. You are worth a real, honest, friend.
William Peter Blatty
- The Exorcist - Chap. 1
Like the brief doomed flare of exploding suns that registers dimly on blind men's eyes, the beginning of the horror passed almost unnoticed; in the shriek of what followed, in fact, was forgotten and perhaps not connected to the horror at all. It was difficult to judge.
Erwin Smith
- Attack on Titan
If you begin to regret, you'll dull your future decisions and let others make your choices for you. All that's left for you then is to die. Nobody can foretell the outcome. Each decision you make holds meaning only by affecting your next decision.
The woman who will always love you
- Noel
The first time I saw you, and your smile, and the way your beautiful eyes lit up... well that moment will forever be imprinted in my mind. You told me from the start that you weren't in a place where you could consider being in a romantic relationship. You were only looking for a friend. You never led me on or played me. But how could I not develop feelings for you? How could I not fall in love with you after getting to know you and us developing this wonderfully unique bond of friendship?

- Rainbow
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you've gotta put up with the rain. You are the artist of your own life, don't hand anyone else the paintbrush. Paint bright and beautiful colors and your life will become of what you have painted. If you paint dark and dull colors, you will find yourself wondering why you didn't add some color.
Chicago Library
- Color Theory
The ancient theory of color was that all colors were mixtures of darkness and light - black and white. Aristotle, for instance, held that dark crimson comes from the mixture of black with sunlight or firelight. It was Isaac Newton who first fully developed a theory of color based on a color wheel. Newton split white light into a spectrum by means of a prism and then wrapped the resulting spectrum around on itself to create the color wheel.
Fleetwood Mac
- Rhiannon
Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night, and wouldn't you love to love her? Takes to the sky like a bird in flight, and who will be her lover? All your life, you've never seen a woman taken by the wind. Would you stay if she promised you haven? Will you ever win?

- Systems Thinking
Systems thinking is a way to look at the world and understand how everything is interconnected. It is also about the idea of thinking about thinking. You get to know the mental models that you have built, how your actions are defined by your assumptions and beliefs, and so much more. If you have time, do comment with the place you are typing from, because I am really curious about the scope of this website. We are after all being connected by a shared interest in typing.
Michael Moorcock
- Stormbringer's Boon
He unstrapped his hell-sword and filing it on the bed of tumbled silks and furs. Wryly he thought back to earlier times when he had given in to despair and how those incidents which had engendered the mood seemed merely gay escapades in comparison to the task which now weighed on his mind. Though weary, he chose not to draw Stormbringer's stolen energy into himself.
