  • Integrity is the quality of doing what is right, regardless of who is watching.
  • "I wear the chain I forged in life. I made it link by link." - Charles Dickens
  • a memory with no history - departures
  • The problem lies not in taking the path with an unknown destination, but the very fact that we forgot why we set out on this journey to begin with.
  • That we will grant allowances for our baser instincts is not a sign of a beast, but an acknowledgement that, in the absence of reason, we are not a beast, but the monster that stares back from the dark of a soul.

  • Then let's say God puts two people on Earth and they are lucky enough to find one another. But one of them gets hit by lightning. Well then what? Is that it? Or, perchance, you meet someone new and marry all over again. Is that the lady you're supposed to be with or was it the first? And if so, when the two of them were walking side by side were they both the one for you and you just happened to meet the first one first or, was the second one supposed to be first? And is everything just chance or are some things meant to be?

- Ever After

  • Why not just kill them? I'll do it! I'll run up to Paris - bam, bam, bam, bam. I'm back before week's end. We spend the treasure. How is this a bad plan?

- The Count of Monte Cristo
