I am obsessive. There has never been, and probably will never be, a time when I just like something. Anything and everything that I enjoy is taken to the highest degree. That may books - I read 68 in 2007, and have a goal to read 100 in 2008. That may be film and TV - Doctor Who being my latest love. That may be activities I do - singing and figure skating are prominent - or things I wish I could do more of - musicals being high on that list. But most of all, I obsess over series - be it Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Tamora Pierce's Tortall, Terry Pratchett's Discworld, Brian Jacques' Redwall, or Douglas Adams' Guide. I. Am. Obsessive. If you don't know that about me, you know nothing. And if you do know that, that's all you need to know to get started. ____WHAT CAN I SAY?____ I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself, you see. Alice in Wonderland Scars can come in handy. I have one myself above my left knee that is a perfect map of the London Underground. Albus Dumbledore At a stoplight, green means go, yellow means slow down, and red means stop. For a banana it's just the opposite. Green means hold on, yellow means go right ahead, and red means, dude, where the fuck did you get that banana at? Mitch Hedberg Arthur hoped and prayed there was an afterlife. Then he realized that was a contradiction and merely hoped there was an afterlife. Douglas Adams I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve. Bilbo Baggins I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas. I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love. V for Vendetta Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life. Terry Pratchett The thing about growing up with Fred and George is that you sort of start thinking anything's possible if you've got enough nerve. Ginny Weasley I love acting. It is so much more real than life. Oscar Wilde Whenever someone says a knight's job is all heroics I laugh, and laugh, and laugh. Sometimes I can stop laughing before they edge away and start talking about soothing drinks. Raoul of Goldenlake One of the advantages of being disorderly is that one is constantly making exciting discoveries. A. A. Milne Destiny is a name often given in retrospect to choices that had dramatic consequences. JK Rowling Certainty of death, small chance of success... well, what're we waiting for? Gimli I believe in looking reality straight in the eye and denying it. Garrison Keillor It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an Airport' appear. Douglas Adams If you're going to ban Harry Potter for promoting witchcraft, you might as well ban Winnie the Pooh for encouraging kids not to wear pants. Laura Thompson When we look at a statue of someone great, we think they've got something we don't. We are trained to think that only a tiny percentage of us have the stuff it takes to be a hero. Not many of us will cure diseases or slay dragons, but every single one of us is called on to be a king, a queen, a hero in our ordinary lives. We don't build statues to worship the exceptional life. We build them to remind ourselves what is possible in our own. Timberland boot ad Before I go, I just want to tell you - you were fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. And d'you know what? So was I.
