Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County

Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County (2004–2006), often referred to only as Laguna Beach, is a dramatic soap opera on MTV. In its first season (2004), it was a reality television series featuring affluent teenagers living in Laguna Beach, California, about 40 miles south of Los Angeles. In its second season, it retained its well-groomed, relatively untrained cast and documentary-like cinematic style, but became almost fully scripted. The locations, the people, and the drama are real.

A Black & White Affair... [1.1]

 * LC: This is where it all happened. Laguna Beach, California. A small town in the OC where I grew up. I just finished my senior year of high school, a year I’ll never forget. I’m really gonna miss my friends. Especially my best friend, Lo. No matter how crazy it got this year, I could always count on Lo. That’s Christina. She’s the reverend’s daughter. No, really, she is. There’s Morgan. Her goal is to save herself for the right guy. That’s Trey. I guess you could say he was the serious one. But he also had the best party house in Laguna. The guy on the surfboard, that’s Talan. He’s a junior and he’s hooked up with most of the girls at our school, twice. That, that would be Kristin, another junior. Wherever Kristin went drama followed. She thinks she’s hot. Okay, I guess she is, but she can’t stand me. Here’s the reason why. Stephen. I guess he’s kind of her boyfriend. But Stephen and I have been really close forever. We’re even going to college together in San Francisco. Kristin’s the wrong girl for him. I’m just waiting for him to figure it out. Oh, and me? I’m Lauren, but my friends call me LC. I’ve always been the nice girl. But this year, I realized sometimes you just have to go after what you want. And all this drama started with the black and white party.

 * Dieter: We’re going bubble bathing tonight. You wanna come?
 * LC: Bubble bathing?
 * Polster: We’re going to be putting bubble bath in Jacuzzi’s so it creates a massive amount of bubbles.
 * LC: Why would you do that?
 * Polster: Why wouldn’t you do that?
 * LC: Don’t you have to empty the Jacuzzi?
 * Polster: We’re not going to do it in my Jacuzzi.
 * Dieter: We’re going to like a hotel.
 * LC: That’s mean.
 * Dieter: That’s mean?
 * LC: Yeah.
 * Dieter: Well I’ll write them an "I’m sorry letter".
 * Polster: How considerate is that? She’s like thinking about the hotel.
 * Dieter: LC always thinks about the smart shit.
 * Polster: Remember when I used to be the smart one?
 * Dieter: No.
 * LC: [Laughs] Yeah, I don’t remember that either.
 * Dieter: That never happened.

 * Alex H: Do you know if Stephen has talked to Lauren like recently at all?
 * Kristin: Uh, they’re friends, but she’s a stuck up little brat.
 * Alex H: Oh, I know!
 * Kristin: But he’s mine. [they laugh]
 * Alex H: If you and Stephen had babies, they’d be so good looking. [Kristin laughs] They would.
 * Kristin: ‘Cause Stephen’s all tan.
 * Alex H: Stephen’s hot.
 * Kristin: Stephen’s really hot.

 * LC: I have two closets.
 * Stephen: Shut up.
 * LC: This is my clothes closet and that one's my shoes and purse closet.

 * Stephen: [to LC] Dude, this is so gnarly. It reminds me of the houses on The OC. Oh God.

 * Kristin: Yeah, I don’t know. I’m really stressed out on Stephen and Lauren because last night, he told me he was going to bed early, and today I found out he was at her house.
 * Talan: Do you know if they hooked up?
 * Kristin: He says that they didn’t.
 * Talan: Does that bum you? I mean, it’s kinda funny, you guys like have a relationship that’s like on and off. ‘Cause you hook up with him, he hooks up with Lauren, you hook up with him, he hooks up with Lauren, I kind of come in on the side and like grab one of you every once in a while.
 * Kristin: Yeah.
 * Talan: Gosh, our town is so small. We need another girl.
 * Kristin: What is that supposed to mean?
 * Talan: I don’t know, I’m kind of sick of hooking up with the same girl.
 * Kristin: You’re sick of hooking up with the same girl? Who?
 * Talan: You know it’s you. It’s seems like whenever I call you, you’re with Stephen, and whenever I call Lauren...
 * Kristin: She’s with Stephen. Either wants to go back out or stop whatever we’re doing.
 * Talan: So you think it’s Lauren’s fault they’re hanging out all the time?
 * Kristin: I think it’s both their faults. I just hate Lauren. She needs to go out of my life.
 * Talan: That’s a little harsh.

 * Polster: Wait, are you going with LC or are you going with Kristin?
 * Stephen: I don’t know. There’s like mad tension there, so I don’t know.
 * Polster: Can you imagine like LC and Kristin fighting over you?
 * Stephen: Having Lauren and Kristin fighting over you?
 * Polster: Yeah.
 * Stephen: Kristin’s like a really good girl to hook up with and have fun with. We can have like so much fun. But, coming down to the boyfriend and girlfriend stuff, Lauren would like a better girl.
 * Polster: Such drama.
 * Stephen: It is.
 * Trey: Could have seen you though dude.
 * Stephen: I know. It sucks for me because I don’t know what to do because either way I’ll be like hurting one.
 * Polster: It’s a tough choice man. But it’s a predicament…it’s just the way it goes.
 * Stephen: Exactly.

 * LC: I like getting ready. Even if you don’t really do anything.

 * Lo: I wish I had a white dress.
 * Morgan: I know, that’s what I wanted to wear.
 * Lo: I know. I have never found a cute white dress like ever. They’re all trashy.

 * [after Stephen ran over Dieter's bottle of cologne]
 * Dieter: If I put a baby next to your car are you going to run over it?
 * Stephen: Why would you put a baby next to my car?
 * Dieter: Why would I put cologne next to your car, dude?

 * LC: At 2:00, we’re all running down there and jumping in the water.
 * Stephen: Naked!?
 * LC: No... I'm wearing a bathing suit... YOU can go naked!

 * LC: I like how we’re all wearing black and Kristin’s wearing white. How ironic.

 * Kristin: I’m the only one that wore white. I’m different.

 * Kristin: I want to get out of here, I'm leaving!
 * LC: I swear if Kristin says one more time she wants to leave I'm gonna pick her up and physically remove her from the hotel!

The Bonfire [1.2]

 * LC: The Black and White party was supposed to be the best party of our senior year...But Kristin made sure that didn’t happen...I guess she was mad when she found out Stephen and I left Trey’s barbecue together...I’d never steal a guy away from another girl, but with those two, you never know if they’re on or not...Especially with all the guys Kristin has on the side...So for now, I’m hanging out with my best friend Lo. And doing what girls do when things aren’t going their way, shop.

 * Saleslady: So are you going out solo tonight or do you have dates?
 * LC: We’re always solo.
 * Saleslady: No ball and chain?
 * Lo: No. No ball and chain whatsoever.

 * Stephen: So what did you think?
 * Kristin: Well I mean I didn’t really do much.
 * Stephen: If you do again you have to promise me that you’ll actually like wanna do it. So we don’t like waste our time.
 * Kristin: Sorry for wasting your time Stephen.
 * Stephen: You didn’t waste my time, it just seemed like you were wasting your time.
 * Kristin: Okay, whatever. Then I don’t like it.
 * Stephen: You wanna go? [She nods] All right, let’s go.
 * Kristin: Thanks for taking me surfing.

 * Christina: I don’t know. I mean, senior year’s been so fun.
 * Morgan: It’s like, I’m so nervous, because like if I don’t get in, I’ve worked for this my whole entire high school.
 * Christina: Aren’t you so excited to open it?
 * Morgan: I’m so nervous Christina, you know?
 * Christina: Yeah.
 * Morgan: This is my only choice school. It’s the only school I applied to. Like if I don’t get in, then I’m still gonna go up there. I’m still gonna be a part of the scene because I’m not staying here. That’s for sure.
 * Christina: Yeah.
 * Morgan: I’m getting out of the bubble. Like I wanna be around those people, I wanna be around people with the same standards and I wanna get out of this party scene and stupid kids screwing up on their parent’s money.
 * Christina: Okay, open it.
 * Morgan: Okay, ready?
 * Christina: Just do it.
 * Morgan: “Dear Morgan, thank you for selecting Brigham Young University for your undergraduate education. Your application has been carefully + thoughtfully reviewed. Because of the high number of competitive students applying to BYU, we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admissions”.
 * Christina: Oh no.
 * Morgan: What am I supposed to do now?
 * Christina: It’s okay. Give me a hug. Come here. It’s okay.
 * Morgan: I’m not staying here. I’m not gonna stay in Laguna Beach, you know?
 * Christina: I know exactly how you feel.
 * Morgan: This sucks. This totally sucks.

 * Jessica: This is gonna be an adventure for me. Do you think Stephen could be in a jealous rage again?
 * Kristin: With Stephen, you never know.

 * Dieter: Feta cheese? [Kristin laughs] Feta cheese?
 * Kristin: I told you, they don’t even know what it is. Feta it’s...
 * Dieter: You know what this is? It’s like goat.
 * Kristin: [laughs] Told you. You guys, just get out. You don’t even know like anything about cooking. Just get out.
 * Dieter: Hey. I’ll have my pasta without feta cheese please.
 * Kristin: It doesn’t go on the pasta, dumbass.
 * Dieter: Hey Stephen.
 * Stephen: Yeah?
 * Dieter: Wanna go to Jack In The Box?
 * Kristin: Shut up. You guys are so mean.

 * LC: So we’ll make an entrance and then we’ll just leave early.
 * Lo: Okay. Can we stay for like 10 minutes?
 * LC: No, we can stay for at least a half an hour. Personally I would like to support Trey because I think what he’s doing is really cool.
 * Lo: I really like the idea of AYA, the Active Young America thing.
 * LC: Me too.
 * Lo: I think it’s cool. I will give them money because I think it’s cool.
 * LC: So you’ll give them money, but you won’t give them like an hour of your time?
 * Lo: Well I just don’t like the whole like hippie, lets play guitar and sing soul songs.

 * Kristin: I hate Stephen. No. Anytime I’m not like all over him, he freaks out and doesn’t know how to act or anything. It pisses me off.

 * Kristin: Last night with Stephen was really, really weird.
 * Morgan S: Why?
 * Kristin: It wasn’t so weird, it was just like, I don’t know.
 * Morgan S: What did you cook for them last night?
 * Kristin: [laughs] Um, like bow tie pasta with chicken and Alfredo sauce. It tasted like feet.

 * JD: A lot of fun, juggling these two girls around?
 * Stephen: No, I’m not juggling two girls around.
 * JD: Okay.
 * Stephen: Me and Lauren, it’s interesting and at the same time it’s kinda weird. It’s not like it’s complicated as with me and Kristin, so...
 * JD: Predicament.
 * Stephen: Yup.

 * Lo: [unable to find cell service] Doesn’t my fucking phone know I need to make a phone call?

 * Stephen: I wanna get the hell out of here so bad. I wish it was August 25 right now. My first day of school. We’re gonna have so much fun at school.
 * LC: I wanna go right now. I just wanna leave.
 * Stephen: I wanna leave so bad. I’m not trying to bring anything up, but there’s so many things I wish I could take back and just like not have happened.
 * LC: Like what?
 * Stephen: Like I don’t regret that we ever hooked up or anything like that, we became better friends from that, but like I regret the situation I got put into.
 * LC: For a really long time, I did regret everything. I mean, it was like fun while it lasted. But it just almost wasn’t worth it because of all the shit we went through.
 * Stephen: It’s so standard. I learned a lot though. Like I’m glad I went through it, like the one time.
 * LC: Don’t lie to two girls that are gonna end up, you know having the same friends.
 * Stephen: I am trying. What do you suggest I do to have fun?
 * LC: Stephen, if you wanted someone, you could have them. Yeah you could.

Fast Cars and Fast Women... [1.3]

 * Kristin: [in her car after smoke starts coming out the hood] It's gonna explode!
 * Alex H.: I wanna get out. I wanna get out. Im really scared right now!

 * Alex H.: Notice every person that honks is driving a nice car.
 * Kristin: BMW, Mercedes, fucking Range Rovers. Yeah!

 * Alex H.: It's fate telling you, you need to get a new car.
 * Kristin: Exactly! I'm gonna be like Dad: You're Buddhist, you believe in that.

 * Jen: How far away are you and Stephen from each other?
 * LC: Like 5 minutes.
 * Lo: Really? I think you guys are going to get married.
 * Jen: Uhm.
 * LC: We're gonna be best friends.
 * Jen: That stuff happens, though, you're gonna like...
 * LC: I don't wanna marry Stephen. [laughs] I don't want to be anything more than Stephen's best friend!
 * Jen: You would have pretty babies, your babies will be like the popular people at school.
 * [They laugh]
 * LC: Sweet, Jen!

 * Alex H,: [While looking at new cars with Kristin] They're staring at you like BUY ME!! BUY ME!!

 * Kristin: My car is dunzo!!

18 Candles... [1.4]

 * LC: We're on the "I forgot you" list for Christina's 18th birthday.

 * LC: This is you ruining my senior year!
 * LC's mom: Why are we ruining it when you are the one who brought in those grades?

 * LC: Daddy, Lo thinks I should not be grounded.
 * Lo: I think Lauren should not be grounded.
 * LC's dad: I'm listening to your arguments.
 * Lo: Well Jim, I think is second semester senior year, LC is a wonderful person... I don't think that her grades reflect on her as a person... I don't think that she is a bad kid... Jim PLEASE JUST LET HER COME OUT WITH ME!!!

 * Christina: You're still going to that Fashion School, right Lauren?
 * LC: It's an Art School...
 * Christina: Art School, Fashion School whatever.

 * LC: I like your earrings Christina.
 * Lo: Were they a birthday gift?
 * Christina: Yeah! Gary gave them to me, with a matching green shirt.
 * Lo: Of course, a matching green shirt.

What Happens in Cabo [1.5]

 * Trey: You're saying that you're not going to hook up with LC in Cabo?
 * Stephen: There's no way I'm going to hook up with LC!

 * Lo: So you never hooked up with Stephen?
 * LC: Lo!!!
 * Lo: Yes?... it´s just gonna be your little secret?
 * LC: It´ll be my little secret... [sighs]...what happens in Cabo, stays in Cabo..... there are a few things that aren´t definitely staying in Cabo.

 * Jen: [about Kristin and Stephen] I came to Cabo to get away from everything... all the drama...
 * LC: It followed us.
 * Jen: It follows us everywhere!

 * Jen: [Trying to cross the street] Lauren you have to wait for the light!
 * LC: [already in the middle of the street] Look they stop.

 * Stephen: [to Kristin] Why don't you get up and dance on the pole again? You looked good up there, slut!

The Best Part of Breaking up... [1.6]

 * Lo: Oh, I see smoke poofs!
 * LC: You see them?
 * Lo: Smoke poofs! Does that mean people are blazing?
 * LC: Those aren't cigarette poofs.
 * Lo: Those definitely aren't cigarette poofs...

 * Dora: How many models do we have total?
 * Trey: Well we have eight with me, seven with Jessica, we have supposedly eight with Tanner. So we have both sixteen plus seven is...a lot.

 * Lo: Kristin hates us!
 * LC: No, Kristin hates me, but it's ok.

 * Lo: When are we going to go to Newport and find boys?
 * LC: Saturday hopefully, there´s none in here...we´ve used them all up.

The Last Dance [1.7]

 * Lo: What color do you have it in?
 * LC: Like light blue, dark blue, black, green, orange.

 * Lindy: What do you think the boys are plannig for tonight?
 * LC: They're planning on going to the dance for like half an hour and then going straight to the after party and gettin' some. And we're all planning on showing off our dresses.

 * [[w:Kristin Cavallari|Kristin: [about Christina and her dad's church] What President went to it? Maybe it was Arnold Schwarzenegger, I don't know what am talking about. I guess Mother Teresa's been there and all these gnarly people.
 * Alex H.: Mother Teresa?
 * Kristin: I don't know, it's huge I guess.

 * Dieter: [about camping] We'll get faded and let the girls cook...
 * Stephen: I don't wanna get food poisoning man!

 * Kristin: [after Stephen tries to scare everyone dressed as a bear] Oh, my gosh, Stephen, that was so lame. You didn't even look like a bear.

 * Morgan: [after seeing the yacht] I’m gonna sleep on this thing. Screw the tent!
 * Kristin: Yeah, screw camping. Let’s sleep on this thing!

 * LC: I can't believe that you're not coming...you were like my supporter. I was like, "Lo can't camp as much as I can't camp".
 * Lo: I know, we were going to be the lame campers together...be like "Ahh! a bug! get it out!"

 * Lo: [To LC, on the phone] You're eating hot dogs and I'm eating sushi... Yes ma'am!!

 * Lo: Maybe a little mean.
 * LC: Just listen to what you just said!

 * Morgan: Where do we think well be in ten years?
 * Christina: You'll be married and living probably back here.
 * Morgan: Aww how boring!
 * Lo: Lauren in ten years is going to be driving her big super Mercedes and living at her beach house with her billionaire husband
 * Christina: With her really hot husband.
 * LC: YES!! I like you guys!

 * Lo: So Talan, do you have girls in your jacuzzi frequently?
 * Talan: No. Actually, you guys are the first.

Boys Are Like Purses [2.13]

 * LC: Boys are like purses. You’re always going to have that one boy that you’re always comfortable with and you’ll always kind of like, right? That’s your purse that you wear everywhere. Then you have that gorgeous bag you want everyone to see you with. But the gorgeous bag is usually an asshole... or costs a lot of money. Then you have like those other purses that you really like but don’t really want to be seen with.

It's, Like, Break-Up Season [3.10]
Kyndra: (To Camy, shopping) It's like break-up season oh my god that's really cute (a dress)!

Thermodynamics

Thermodynamics is a branch of physics that studies the movement of energy and how energy instills movement. It studies the effects of changes in temperature, pressure, and volume on physical systems at the macroscopic scale. Using statistics, its findings are explained as the collective motion of their particles. 19th century physicists defined three Laws of thermodynamics to sum up the basic principles of the subject; in the 20th century, an unofficial "zeroth law" was added.

Quotes

 * Every mathematician knows it is impossible to understand an elementary course in thermodynamics.
 * V.I. Arnold, "Contact geometry: The geometrical method of Gibbs' thermodynamics," in Proceedings of the Gibbs Symposium, D. Caldi and G. Mostow, eds. (American Mathematical Society, 1990), p. 163.

 * Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot, Reflections on the Motive Power of Heat and on Machines Fitted to Develop Power (1824)
 * In order to consider in the most general way the principle of the production of motion by heat, it must be considered independently of any mechanism or any particular agent. It is necessary to establish principles applicable not only to steam engines but to all imaginable heat-engines, whatever the working substance and whatever the method by which it is operated.
 * Machines which do not receive their motion from heat... can be studied even to their smallest details by the mechanical theory. ...A similar theory is evidently needed for heat-engines. We shall have it only when the laws of Physics shall be extended enough, generalized enough, to make known beforehand all of the effects of heat acting in a determined manner on any body.
 * The production of heat alone is not sufficient to give birth to the impelling powerː it is necessary that there should also be cold; without it the heat would be useless. And in fact, if we should find about us only bodies as hot as our furnaces... What should we do with it if once produced? We should not presume that we might discharge it into the atmosphere... the atmosphere would not receive it. It does receive it under the actual condition of things only because.. it is at a lower temperature, otherwise it... would be already saturated.
 * Heat can evidently be a cause of motion only by virtue of the changes of volume or of form which it produces in bodies. These changes are not caused by uniform temperature but rather by alternations of heat and cold.
 * The driving power of heat is independent of the agents used to realize it; its value is uniquely fixed by the temperatures of the bodies between which the transfer of caloric is made.

 * A theory is the more impressive the greater the simplicity of its premises, the more different kinds of things it relates, and the more extended its area of applicability. Therefore the deep impression that classical thermodynamics made upon me. It is the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced will never be overthrown, within the framework of applicability of its basic concepts.
 * Albert Einstein (author), Paul Arthur, Schilpp (editor). Autobiographical Notes. A Centennial Edition. Open Court Publishing Company. 1979. p. 31 [As quoted by Don Howard, John Stachel. Einstein: The Formative Years, 1879-1909 (Einstein Studies, vol. 8). Birkhäuser Boston. 2000. p. 1]

 * The effects of heat are subject to constant laws which cannot be discovered without the aid of mathematical analysis. The object of the theory is to demonstrate these laws; it reduces all physical researches on the propagation of heat, to problems of the integral calculus, whose elements are given by experiment. No subject has more extensive relations with the progress of industry and the natural sciences; for the action of heat is always present, it influences the processes of the arts, and occurs in all the phenomena of the universe.
 * Joseph Fourier, Theory of Heat, Tr. Freeman, Cambridge (1878) Chap. 1, p. 12.

 * Newton and his theories were a step ahead of the technologies that would define his age. Thermodynamics, the grand theoretical vision of the nineteenth century, operated in the other direction with practice leading theory. The sweeping concepts of energy, heat, work and entropy, which thermodynamics (and its later form, statistical mechanics) would embrace, began first on the shop floor. Originally the domain of engineers, thermodynamics emerged from their engagement with machines. Only later did this study of heat and its transformation rise to the heights of abstract physics and, finally, to a new cosmological vision.
 * Adam Frank, About Time: Cosmology and Culture at the Twilight of the Big Bang (2011)

 * [I]n the nineteenth century, even the could be reduced to mechanics by the assumption that heat really consists of a complicated statistical motion of the smallest parts of matter. By combining the concepts of the mathematical theory of probability with the concepts of Newtonian mechanics Clausius, Gibbs and Boltzmann were able to show that the fundamental laws in the theory of heat could be interpreted as statistical laws following from Newton's mechanics when applied to very complicated mechanical systems.
 * Werner Heisenberg, Physics and Philosophy: The Revolution in Modern Science (1958)

 * Nick Lane, Transformer: The Deep Chemistry of Life and Death (2022)
 * Even the laws of thermodynamics... can be recast in terms of information — Shannon entropy, the laws of bits of information. But this view generates its own paradox at the origin of life. ...Place information at the heart of life, and there is a problem with the emergence of function ...the origin of biological information. There are problems... in understanding why we age and die... diseases... and how experiences can give rise to conscious mind. ...A far better question ...what processes animate cells and set them apart from inanimate matter?
 * The driving force of is thermodynamics. ...[I]n this context ...the chemical need to react (to dissipate energy) in the same way that water needs to flow downhill.
 * If the Krebs cycle is ordained by thermodynamics, then it should take place spontaneously in some suitably propitious envirnonment, even in the absence of s.

 * James Clerk Maxwell, Theory of Heat (1871)
 * The whole science of heat is founded Thermometry and Calorimetry, and when these operations are understood we may proceed to the third step, which is the investigation of those relations between the thermal and the mechanical properties of substances which form the subject of Thermodynamics. The whole of this part of the subject depends on the consideration of the Intrinsic Energy of a system of bodies, as depending on the temperature and physical state, as well as the form, motion, and relative position of these bodies. Of this energy, however, only a part is available for the purpose of producing mechanical work, and though the energy itself is indestructible, the available part is liable to diminution by the action of certain natural processes, such as conduction and radiation of heat, friction, and viscosity. These processes, by which energy is rendered unavailable as a source of work, are classed together under the name of the Dissipation of Energy.
 * "Preface"
 * Heat may be generated and destroyed by certain processes, and this shows that heat is not a substance.
 * Ch.3 "Calorimetry"

 * Isn’t thermodynamics considered a fine intellectual structure, bequeathed by past decades, whose every subtlety only experts in the art of handling Hamiltonians would be able to appreciate?
 * Pierre Perrot, "A to Z Dictionary of Thermodynamics"

 * Thermodynamics is a funny subject. The first time you go through it, you don't understand it at all. The second time you go through it, you think you understand it, except for one or two small points. The third time you go through it, you know you don't understand it, but by that time you are so used to it, it doesn't bother you any more.
 * Arnold Sommerfeld, as quoted in Salvatore Califano's Pathways to Modern Chemical Physics (2012) and by many other science authors

 * If the water flow down by a gradual natural channel, its potential energy is gradually converted into heat by fluid friction, according to an admirable discovery made by Mr Joule of Manchester above twelve years ago, which has led to the greatest reform that physical science has experienced since the days of Newton. From that discovery, it may be concluded with certainty that heat is not matter, but some kind of motion among the particles of matter; a conclusion established, it is true, by Sir Humphrey Davy and Count Rumford at the end of last century, but ignored by even the highest scientific men during a period of more than forty years.
 * William Thomson, Mathematical and Physical Papers, Vol.2 (1884) "On Mechanical Antecedents of Motion, Heat and Light" (originally published 1854, 1855)

 * Thermodynamics is more like a mode of reasoning than a body of physical law. ...we can think of thermodynamics as a certain pattern of arrows that occurs again and again in very different physical contexts, but, wherever this pattern of explanation occurs, the arrows can be traced back by the methods of statistical mechanics to deeper laws and ultimately to the principles of elementary particle physics. ...the fact that a scientific theory finds applications to a wide variety of different phenomena does not imply anything about the autonomy of this theory from deeper physical laws.
 * Steven Weinberg, Dreams of a Final Theory (1992) p. 41.

Second Law of Thermodynamics/Entropy

 * The Second Law recognizes that there is a fundamental dissymmetry in Nature... All around us are aspects of the dissymmetry: hot objects become cool, but cool objects do not spontaneously become hot; a bouncing ball comes to rest, but a stationary ball does not spontaneously begin to bounce. Here is the feature of Nature that both Kelvin and Clausius disentangled from the conservation of energy: although the total quantity of energy must be conserved in any process (which is their revised version of what Carnot had taken to be the conservation of the quantity of caloric), the distribution of that energy changes in an irreversible manner. The Second Law is concerned with the natural direction of change of the distribution of energy, something that is quite independent of its total quantity.
 * P. W. Atkins, The Second Law (1984)

Everywhere... in the Universe, we discern that closed physical systems evolve in the same sense from ordered states towards a state of complete disorder called. This cannot be a consequence of known laws of change, since... these laws are time symmetric—they permit... time-reverse... The initial conditions play a decisive role in endowing the world with its sense of temporal direction. ...some prescription for initial conditions is crucial if we are to understand... A Theory of Everything needs to be complemented by some such independent prescription which appeals to simplicity, economy, or some other equally metaphysical notion to underpin its credibility. The only radically different alternative... a belief that the type of mathematical description of Nature... —that of causal equations with starting conditions—is just an artefact of our own preferred categories of thought and merely an approximation... At a deeper level, a sharp divide between those aspects of reality that we habitually call 'laws' and... 'initial conditions' may simply not exist.
 * The choice (or accident) of s creates a sense of time directionality in a physical environment. The 'arrow' of entropy increase is a reflection of the improbability of those initial conditions which are entropy-decreasing in a closed physical system. ...
 * John D. Barrow, Theories of Everything: The Quest for Ultimate Explanation (1991) pp. 38-39.

 * The second law of thermodynamics is, without a doubt, one of the most perfect laws in physics. Any reproducible violation of it, however small, would bring the discoverer great riches as well as a trip to Stockholm. The world’s energy problems would be solved at one stroke. It is not possible to find any other law (except, perhaps, for super selection rules such as charge conservation) for which a proposed violation would bring more skepticism than this one. Not even Maxwell’s laws of electricity or Newton’s law of gravitation are so sacrosanct, for each has measurable corrections coming from quantum effects or general relativity. The law has caught the attention of poets and philosophers and has been called the greatest scientific achievement of the nineteenth century. Engels disliked it, for it supported opposition to Dialectical Materialism, while Pope Pius XII regarded it as proving the existence of a higher being.
 * Ivan P. Bazarov, "Thermodynamics" (1964)

 * If one applies this to the universe in total, one reaches a remarkable conclusion. ...Namely, if, in the universe, heat always shows the endeavour to change its distribution in such a way that existing temperature differences are thereby smoothened, then the universe must continually get closer and closer to the state, where the forces cannot produce any new motions, and no further differences exist.
 * Rudolf Clausius (1864) as quoted by Helge S. Kragh, Entropic Creation: Religious Contexts of Thermodynamics and Cosmology (2013)

 * The more the universe approaches this limiting condition in which the entropy is maximum, the more do the occasions of further change diminish; and supposing this condition to be at last completely attained, no further change could evermore take place, and the universe would be in a state of unchanging death.
 * Rudolf Clausius (1868) as quoted by Jed Z. Buchwald, Robert Fox, The Oxford Handbook of the History of Physics (2013)

 * In the year 1900 Max Planck wrote... $$E = hv$$, where $$E$$ is the energy of a light wave, $$v$$ is its, and $$h$$ is... . It said that energy and frequency are the same thing measured in different units. Planck's constant gives you a rate of exchange for for converting frequency into energy... But in the year 1900 this made no physical sense. Even Plank himself did not understand it. ...Now Hawking has written down an equation which looks rather like Planck's equation... $$S = kA$$, where $$S$$ is the entropy of a black hole, $$A$$ is the area of its surface, and $$k$$ is... Hawking's constant. Entropy means roughly the same thing as the of an object. ...Hawking's equation says that entropy is really the same thing as area. The exchange rate... is given by Hawking's constant... But what does it really mean to say that entropy and area are the same thing? We are as far away from understanding that now as Planck was of understanding quantum mechanics in 1900. ...[T]his equation will emerge as a central feature of the still unborn theory which will tie together gravitation and quantum mechanics and thermodynamics.
 * Freeman Dyson, Infinite in All Directions: Gifford Lectures given at Aberdeen, Scotland April-November 1985 (1988) pp. 21-22 (paperback, 1989).

 * The law that entropy always increases holds, I think, the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations — then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation — well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.
 * Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington, The Nature of the Physical World (1915), chapter 4

 * The paradox that immediately bothers everyone who learns about the second law is this: If systems tend to become more disordered, why, then, do we see so much order around us? ...It seems to conflict with our "creation myth": In the beginning, there was a big bang. ...no one is saying that the second law of thermodynamics is wrong, just that there is a contrapuntal process organizing things at a higher level.
 * J. Doyne Farmer, The Third Culture: Beyond the Scientific Revolution ed. John Brockman (1995)

 * Nothing in life is certain except death, taxes and the second law of thermodynamics. All three are processes in which useful or accessible forms of some quantity, such as energy or money, are transformed into useless, inaccessible forms of the same quantity.  That is not to say that these three processes don't have fringe benefits: taxes pay for roads and schools; the second law of thermodynamics drives cars, computers and metabolism; and death, at the very least, opens up tenured faculty positions.
 * Seth Lloyd, writing in Nature 430, 971 (26 August 2004); doi:10.1038/430971a

 * Life is nature's solution to the problem of preserving information despite the second law of thermodynamics.
 * Howard L. Resnikoff, The Illusion of Reality (1989), ISBN 0387963987, p. 74

 * The reactions that break down large molecules into small ones do not require an input of energy, but the reactions that build up large molecules require an input of energy. This is consistent with the laws of thermodynamics, which say that large, orderly molecules tend to break down into small, disorderly molecules.
 * Stanley A. Rice, Life of Earth: Portrait of a Beautiful, Middle-aged Stressed-out World (2011)

 * No one has yet succeeded in deriving the second law from any other law of nature. It stands on its own feet. It is the only law in our everyday world that gives a direction to time, which tells us that the universe is moving toward equilibrium and which gives us a criteria for that state, namely, the point of maximum entropy, of maximum probability. The second law involves no new forces. On the contrary, it says nothing about forces whatsoever.
 * Brian L Silver, The Ascent of Science (1998)

 * A good many times I have been present at gatherings of people who, by the standards of the traditional culture, are thought highly educated and who have with considerable gusto been expressing their incredulity at the illiteracy of scientists. Once or twice I have been provoked and have asked the company how many of them could describe the Second Law of Thermodynamics.  The response was cold: it was also negative. Yet I was asking something which is the scientific equivalent of: Have you read a work of Shakespeare's?
 * C. P. Snow, 1959 Rede Lecture entitled "The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution".

 * My own introduction to entropy was as an undergraduate mechanical engineering student. Neither I nor any of the other students knew anything about the molecular theory of heat, and I bet that the professor didn't either. The course... was so confusing that I...couldn't make any sense of it. Worst of all was the concept of entropy. We were told that if you heat something a small amount, the change in thermal energy, divided by the temperature, is the change of its entropy. Everyone copied it down but no one understood what it meant. It was as incomprehensible to me as "The change in the number of sausages divided by the onionization is called floogelweiss."
 * Leonard Susskind, The Black Hole War: My Battle with Stephen Hawking to make the World Safe for Quantum Mechanics (2008)

 * Organic evolution has its physical analogue in the universal law that the world tends, in all its parts and particles, to pass from certain less probable to certain more probable configurations or states. This is the second law of thermodynamics. It has been called the law of evolution of the world; and we call it, after Clausius, the Principle of Entropy, which is a literal translation of Evolution in Greek.
 * D'Arcy Wentworth Thompson, On Growth and Form (1917)

 * It is impossible by means of inanimate material agency, to derive mechanical effect from any portion of matter by cooling it below the temperature of the coldest of the surrounding objects. [Footnote: ] If this axiom be denied for all temperatures, it would have to be admitted that a self-acting machine might be set to work and produce mechanical effect by cooling the sea or earth, with no limit but the total loss of heat from the earth and sea, or in reality, from the whole material world.
 * William Thomson, Mathematical and Physical Papers, Vol.1 p. 179 (1882) "On the Dynamical Theory of Heat with Numerical Results Deduced from Mr Joule's Equivalent of a Thermal Unit and M. Regnault's Observations on Steam" originally from Transactions of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, March, 1851 and Philosophical Magazine iv, 1852

2. Any restoration of mechanical energy, without more than an equivalent of dissipation, is impossible in inanimate material processes, and is probably never effected by means of organized matter, either endowed with vegetable life or subjected to the will of an animated creature. 3. Within a finite period of time past, the earth must have been, and within a finite period of time to come the earth must again be, unfit for the habitation of man as at present constituted, unless operations have been, or are to be performed, which are impossible under the laws to which the known operations going on at present in the material world are subject.
 * 1. There is at present in the material world a universal tendency to the dissipation of mechanical energy.
 * William Thomson, Mathematical and Physical Papers, Vol.1 p. 512 (1882) "On a Universal Tendency in Nature to the Dissipation of Mechanical Energy" originally from the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh for April 19, 1852, also Philosophical Magazine, Oct. 1852

 * In classical physics, most of the fundamental laws of nature were concerned either with the stability of certain configurations of bodies, e.g. the solar system, or else with the conservation of certain properties of matter, e.g. mass, energy, angular momentum or spin. The outstanding exception was the famous Second Law of Thermodynamics, discovered by Clausius in 1850. This law, as usually stated, refers to an abstract concept called entropy, which for any enclosed or thermally isolated system tends to increase continually with lapse of time. In practice, the most familiar example of this law occurs when two bodies are in contact: in general, heat tends to flow from the hotter body to the cooler. Thus, while the First Law of Thermodynamics, viz. the conservation of energy, is concerned only with time as mere duration, the Second Law involves the idea of trend. Milne developed his cosmology by taking this idea of trend to be fundamental, regarding the expansion of the universe as its supreme manifestation.

Some of the parents came by to thank me and I know it was worth it. Tell Dally it was worth it. I'm just gonna miss you guys. I've been thinking about it, and that poem, that guy that wrote it, he meant you are gold when you're a kid, like green. When you're a kid everything is new, dawn. It's just...just when you get used to everything it's day. Like the way you dig sunsets, Pony. That's Gold. Keep it that way, it's a good way to be. I want you to tell Dally to look at one. He'll probably think you're crazy, but ask for me. I don't think he's ever really seen a sunset. And don't be bugged over being a greaser.

The Music Man

The Music Man is a musical with book, music, and lyrics by Meredith Willson. The plot concerns con man Harold Hill, a traveling salesman who poses as a "Boys' Band Organizer and Leader" which allows him to sell band instruments and uniforms to naive townsfolk before skipping town with the cash.

Harold Hill

 * You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you're left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays. I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering.

 * A man can't turn tail and run just because a little personal risk is involved. What did Shakespeare say? 'Cowards die a thousand deaths, the brave man... only 500'?

 * It means, that America has finally produced a genius who can play the minute waltz in 50 seconds!

 * Never allow the demands of tomorrow to interfere with the pleasure and excitement of today.

Others

 * Zaneeta Shinn: 'It's Capulets like you that make blood in the market place!' Ye Gawds!

 * Mayor Shinn: You watch your phraseology!

 * Mayor Shinn: I can't believe I almost missed this opportunity!" [Short Pause] Wait a minute... I haven't got any son!

Dialogue

 * Harold: Gentlemen you intrigue me. I think I'll have to give Iowa a try.
 * Charlie: Don't believe I caught your name.
 * Harold: (Holds up suitcase with "Prof H. Hill" printed on it) I don't believe I dropped it.

 * Harold: Fine looking animal.
 * Townsman 1: For a horse, yeah.
 * Harold: [Walks off to try again] Good morning neighbor. Could you kindly direct me which way is the center of town?
 * Townsman 2: [Looks at him] Runs right down the middle of the street, away from town.
 * Harold: [Tips hat towards Townsman 2 and turns around] Excuse me friend. Where would I find a good hotel?
 * Townsman 3: Try the Palmer house in Chicago.
 * Harold: [Walks away again] Good morning neighbor. I'm a stranger in your town, what do you folks do around here for excitement?
 * Undertaker: Mind our business.

 * Marsellus: The billiard parlor's just put in a new pool table.
 * Harold: They never had a pool table before?
 * Marsellus: No, only Billiards.

 * Marian: No, please, not tonight. Maybe tomorrow.
 * Harold: Oh, my dear little librarian. You pile up enough tomorrows, and you'll find you are left with nothing but a lot of empty yesterdays. I don't know about you, but I'd like to make today worth remembering.
 * Marian: Oh, so would I.

Rock Island

 * Charlie Sings: "Ever meet a fella by the name of Hill?" [In Rhythm, Each a different person]: "Hill?" "Hill?" "Hill?" "Hill? "Hill?" "Hill?" "Hill?" "Hill?" (All but Charlie, Shouted): "NO!"

Iowa Stubborn

 * "But what the heck? You're welcome! Join us at the picnic, you can have your fill of all the food you bring yourself. You really ought to give Iowa a try" Bass Solo: "Provided you are contrary."

My White Knight

 * (Staring out window): "All I want is a plain man All I want is a modest man A quiet man, a gentle man A straightforward and honest man To sit with me in a cottage Somewhere in the state of Iowa And I would like him to be More interested in me Than he is in himself And more interested in us Than in me."

Ya got Trouble

 * (Spoken): "Well, ya got trouble, my friend, right here," (Begins to sing): "I say, trouble, right here in River City Why sure, I'm a billiard player, certainly, I'm mighty proud to say it, always mighty proud to say it! I consider the hours that I spend with a cue in my hand are golden! It helps you cultivate a horse sense; A cool head, and a keen eye. Now folks, let me tell you what I mean; You got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 pockets on a table! Pockets that mark the difference between a gentleman and a bum! That's a capital B That rhymes with P that stands for pool!"

Seventy-Six Trombones

 * "Seventy-six trombones led the big parade. With a hundred and ten cornets close at had. They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuosos, The cream of ev'ry famous band."
 * "Seventy six trombones caught the morning sun, With a hundred and ten cornets right behind. There were more than a thousand reeds springing up like weeds, there were horns of ev'ry shape and kind."
 * "There were copper bottom tympani in horse platoons, thundering, thundering, all along the way. Double bell euphoniums and big bassoons, each bassoon having his big fat say."
 * "There were fifty mounted cannon in the battery, thundering, thundering, louder than before. Clarinets of eve'ry size and trumpeters who'd improvise a full octave higher than the score. "
 * "Seventy six trombones led the big parade, when the order to march rang out loud and clear. Starting off with a big bang bong on a Chinese gong, by a big bang bonger at the rear."
 * "Seventy six trombones hit the counter point, while a hundred and ten cornets played the air. Then I modestly took my place as the one and only bass, and I oompahed up and down the square."

Ender's Shadow

Ender's Shadow is a 1999 book by Orson Scott Card with a plot covering the events in Ender's Game but from the point of view of Bean, a child genius who is largely peripheral to the action in Ender's Game.

Quotes

 * "Ain't worth a Bean," she said.

 * She wanted to give God credit for every good thing, but when it was bad, then she didn’t mention God or had some reason why it was a good thing after all.

 * He dreamed, as human beings always dreamed — random firings of memory and imagination that the unconscious mind tries to put together into coherent stories.

 * "An eye for an eye? How Christian of you." "Unbelievers always want other people to act like Christians."

 * I do give the other guy a chance to learn what he’s doing before I insist on perfection.

 * The commander must be able to change his plans abruptly when obstacles or opportunities appear. If his army isn’t ready and willing to respond to his will, his cleverness comes to nothing.

 * Somebody has to roll the dice. Mine are the hands that hold those dice. I’m not a bureaucrat, placing my career above the larger purposes I was put here to serve. I will not put the dice in someone else’s hands, or pretend that I don’t have the choice I have.

 * Bean’s powers of analysis were extraordinary. So, also, were his powers of deception. Some of Bean’s guesses weren’t right — but was that because he didn’t know the truth, or because he simply didn’t want them to know how much he knew, or how much he guessed.

 * Ender Wiggin was not larger than life, Bean knew. He was exactly life-sized, and so his larger-than-life burden was too much for him. And yet he was bearing it. So far.

 * Ender was what Bean only wished to be — the kind of person on whom you could put all your hopes, who could carry all your fears, and he would not let you down, would not betray you. I want to be the kind of boy you are, thought Bean. But I don’t want to go through what you’ve been through to get there.

 * Please stop reassuring me of how respectful you are whenever you’re about to tell me that I’m an idiot.

 * You can’t rule out the impossible, because you never know which of your assumptions about what was possible might turn out, in the real universe, to be false.

 * Doesn’t it occur to you that the very fact that you’re asking me this question tells me there’s something else for me to figure out, and therefore greatly increases the chance that I will figure it out?

 * Sometimes you have to tell people the truth and ask them to do the thing you want, instead of trying to trick them into it.

 * Sometimes the other side is irresistibly strong, and then the only sensible course of action is to retreat in order to save your force to fight another day.

 * Most victories came from instantly exploiting your enemy's stupid mistakes, and not from any particular brilliance in your own plan.

 * Humans will always act to preserve their own lives — except for the times when they don’t.

 * Once they understood our autonomy, the seed of their defeat was sown.

 * Isn't that what it means to be civilized? That you can wait to get what you want?

 * "Christians have been expecting the imminent end of the world for millennia." "But it keeps not ending." "So far, so good."

 * Trying to shock nuns is not much sport. There is no trophy.

 * Know, think, choose, do.

 * "I’m not stupid!" In [his] experience, that was a sentence never uttered except to prove its own inaccuracy.
 * Analyzing things was fine, but good reflexes could save your life.
 * Will I die from her mistakes too? No, I'll die from my own damn mistakes!

 * Male and female he created them. Making his image anatomically vague, one must suppose.

 * "I just... I'm saying that God must have been watching over you." "Yeah. Well, sure. So why didn't he watch over all those dead kids?" "He took them to his heart and loved them." "So then he didn't love me?" "No, he loved you too, he — " "Cause if he was watching so careful, he could have given me something to eat now and then."

 * The more Sister Carlotta explained it, the less he understood it. Because if there was somebody in charge, then he ought to be fair, and if he wasn't fair, then why should Sister Carlotta be so happy that he was in charge?

 * Fools always look up for power. People above you, they never want to share power with you. Why you look to them? They give you nothing. People below you, you give them hope, you give them respect, they give you power, cause they don't think they have any, so they don't mind giving it up.

 * Soldiers do not give the other guy a sporting chance. Soldiers shoot in the back, lay traps and ambushes, lie to the enemy and outnumber the other bastard every chance they get. Your kind of murder only works among civilians.

 * Soldiers don't like to lose. And that is why losing is a much more powerful teacher than winning.

 * He hadn't realized how much he needed the honor of others until he finally got it.

 * "If someone runs after your car, screaming and waving his arms, you know that something significant is intended, even if you can't hear a word he's saying."

 * “O my son Absalom,” Bean said softly, knowing for the first time the kind of anguish that could tear such words from a man’s mouth. “my son, my son Absalom. Would God I could die for thee, O Absalom, my son.  My sons!”

 * Suddenly a vast eruption licked outward toward the last of the human fighters, Petra' s ships, on which there might or might not still be men alive to see death coming at them. To see their victory approach.

 * If I had a plan, I'd take control. I have no plan. So for good or ill, it's Ender's game not mine.

 * ...for we humans do, when the cause is sufficient, spend our own lives. We throw ourselves onto the grenade to save our buddies in the foxhole. We rise out of the trenches and charge the entrenched enemy and die like maggots under a blowtorch. We strap bombs on our bodies and blow ourselves up in the midst of our enemies. We are, when the cause is sufficient, insane.

Alice Borchardt

Alice Borchardt (October 6, 1939 – July 24, 2007) was a writer of historical fiction, fantasy, and horror.

Unknown

 * Love doesn’t go away because we want it to, but remains even when it becomes a searing pain, leaving the heart a desert of bitter remorse and grief for joy, a happiness that once has been and now never could return. There had been a time when simply to touch this little bit of linen he held now so casually brought every aching moment of that love back.  The sense of desolate pain-drenched loss traveled up his arm, enclosing his heart like a set of icy fingers.  A time when to look upon what it held was unbearable

Beguiled

 * Have I your word?” “yes, you have my word.  But, you don’t believe me.”  “no, men’s promises to women are easily made and even more easily broken.”
 * He knew he should be furious, but he couldn’t sustain a decent rage around her. She had too much about her of the ferocious kitten.  Something small and fuzzy, just learning it had claws and how to use them
 * She knew he was telling his soul what it needed to hear so that he could gather his courage to go and go what he must

Devoted

 * Do you hate me so much?” “no, I can’t hate you.  I wish I could, but I can’t”
 * Elin wondered, sitting in the sweat bath, what that had to do with passion or desire, and decided – nothing. It was justification.  They had murdered the men and must prove, on the helpless bodies of the women, that they were truly stronger.  Prove it to exhaustion… not even pleasure was in it for them
 * I like a man willing to pay the price of his pleasures
 * I was angry with you about him, furious that he so much as set eyes on you. I would rather kill you than see you lie in his arms.”  “is that love then?  A thing that leads to murder?”  “I don’t know.  In all honesty, I don’t know.  You’re mine.  What’s mine I keep, I rule, and give my body over to defend.  I offer you my honor, and my life.  That’s not an easy thing.  Its within your power to break my pride, and take that life, insignificant though it is.”  “you put it very simply.”  “its not.  Such a gift rouses strange passions, fears of treachery, and deep distrust.  I’m not immune to them.”  “no one told me it would be like this.  Perhaps it won't go into words, what I feel for you.  Its not desire, yet I love your touch, the warm softness of your flesh against mine.”
 * So easily can we destroy those things we love. Had his moment of wounded pride, his stupid frenzy, snuffed out that fragile courage?  Would the strong spirit that survived so much anguish be ended as easily as this?
 * The eyes were too intense, tortured almost. He was tall, but the body was wiry rather than powerful.  Nature had gifted him with a cat’s grace and lethal swiftness, rather than the raw power of a bull
 * There’s no sense crying over what can’t be changed” “that’s what people cry over, things they can’t change”
 * Women are weak, easily swayed by passion, driven by desire, lust. He lit a fire in her body, a fire that still burned, even in his absence
 * Its easier to forget a thing without a name. I’ve learned to guard my affections.”  “I know, you’ve never asked mine.”
 * Know you, boy, women are like cats and must explore any new place until they are satisfied. If they don’t they become weak and vain, fretful and ill
 * One who forced another was beneath contempt. One who needed to was despised
 * Some of the captured women killed themselves. I didn’t.  others yielded and learned to love their captors.  I wouldn’t do either one.  I knew I would escape.  Death is forever; to learn to love the hand that crushes you is a shame not to be borne.  Pain and slavery will pass.  I believed this and it kept me alive
 * You should leave that place, my girl” “you know me better than that.”  “yes, I do.  Too brave for your own good.  Too brave now, I think.”  “would you have me any less?”  “I’m sorry.  No, I wouldn’t have you less.”

The Silver Wolf

 * pleasure wouldn’t exist without the sharp bite of pain. Even the brief flash of orgasm is too intense to be absolutely pleasurable
 * have you ever seen anyone who could take anything from me against my will, ever, anywhere, anytime?
 * A hint of ‘I’m so pleased that you strong, handsome, stalwart men are going to stand between my flower-like beauty and danger,’ wouldn’t hurt either
 * I know love is eternal, so also are folly, lies and roses.
 * In this world our hopes for the best are so often disappointed
 * Love is eternal. That is its terror and its final beauty. Love never ends. The joy may go out of it, and in time even the pain may end. But it lingers like a living thing and follows you every moment of your life.

The Wolf King

 * you’re frightening me” “be frightened.  Sometimes its very intelligent to be afraid”

The Dragon Queen

 * Desire was only another weapon, like hunger, loneliness, and cold arrayed against him by his tormentors
 * for when women take revenge, it is with all their hearts and souls, not to mention considerable inventiveness and ingenuity
 * He is tremendously strong, she thought, and liked the idea, even as she had feared that strength when she first met him
 * He smiled at her, and she felt uncomfortable as she always did when he showed her affection as opposed to lust. Lust she expected from a man but not affection.  The men in her life, her brothers and father, had not been affectionate; and lust would have been inappropriate, though she saw them direct that at other women, usually women of low rank, ripe to be used and cast aside
 * He was magnificent, and I will never forget that in that moment, I first loved him. And I never stopped loving him.  I do now and always will.  No one ever brought me more sorrow or pain or joy than he did.  No, nothing, not even my sons, has ever outweighed the love I feel and still feel for him.  And I believe – had I known what the future held for us: all the trouble, torment, battle, and grief of our lives – I still believe that I would have yielded my heart into his keeping as I did then
 * Love is important, and woman being shrewd bargainers probably know fame is not worth much. I’d much rather have something I can spend, eat, or love, thank you very much
 * She was afraid of men, with good reason, but she need not fear all of them. Cai loved her and somehow always would.  But above all, she could trust him, because dishonesty wasn’t in him.  Not always a good trait but a part of his nature.  He kept faith without thinking about it at all.  He couldn’t imagine not doing so
 * Then he turned and walked away, and I gazed after him in sorrow. “Don’t look so, girl.  He’s the first to fall at your feet; he will not be the last”
 * And then he remembered that the other function of sex is punishment – men use it to humiliate women. And since turnabout is fair play, women often use it to humiliate men
 * I am no ordinary woman, and born to a different fate. I would not go whimpering.
 * It is human, I think, when we encounter the marvelous to try and bring away some of it with us
 * You, why do you let me say such things when and where I shouldn’t?” “the problem is not ordering the course of your speech.  Its shutting you up in the first place”
 * Good practical intelligence. Why screech when there is no one to comfort you?
 * One day she would be a formidable female, a creature to be reckoned with
 * Don’t flaunt your ignorance or try to insult me. I don’t suffer fools gladly and insults irritate me
 * I apologize.” “you aren’t sorry and don’t apologize.”
 * I wish. I don’t know what I wish.  That you were less I were more, perhaps.  Yes, just possibly that’s it
 * You are very lovely now and soon you will be beautiful. Ant not in an ordinary way.  Youth is always beautiful, but you are like some creatures of fairy born to bring ill to mortals.  Only trouble can follow such gifts
 * I saw he was now and always would be his own man
 * [he] was handsome. Just the sight of him stirred strange longings in me
 * till we meet again, my heart awaits you.” “till we meet again, you will trouble my dreams”
 * some men know from birth that they are expendable… they fought to won. If you did not win, you did not run either
 * the little death. What would or could be left of a human being after such an experience?
 * God, to breathe. Air.  You don’t know what it means until you cannot take a breath
 * For what is a flower but life’s expressed passion for itself. Sudden and brief, but certain and eternal at the same time
 * At worst, they were vile creatures who needed to be wiped from the face of the earth. At best, such behavior shows a dangerous lack of self-control.  The first business of a warrior is self-restraint
 * He said truth has a taste, and this had the taste of truth. A wolf would put it that way, but I agree it does.  Some things just don’t hang together, but others do.  And a lot of times when you encounter it, you say, “I don’t want this to be right, but it probably is, even though it brings me to grief.”
 * Shes direct enough
 * He was conscious that something in [his] personality bolstered his confidence and allowed him to rest, to seek peace and find it. He never game a name to it, and never spoke of it.  And never, never would he have allowed himself or anyone to call it – love
 * Remember this central truth. Your enemy is there because he, too, has weighed the consequences of failure and accepts them.  Play always to win, because nothing else matters

The Raven Warrior

 * Thats the trouble. all i wanted was a tumble in the hay.  oh, boy, i said.  ill bet that cute thing is fun and games.  what he doesn't know about the birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees, i can sure teach him
 * He was, she thought, as beautiful as a young god, lying on his side among the grass and flowers
 * Everybody always knows where they stand with you, don't they?
