There is nothing sweeter in this sad world than the sound of someone you love calling your name.

Reader, you must know that an interesting fate (sometimes involving rats, sometimes not) awaits almost everyone, mouse or man, who does not conform.

There is a lot of love in him, a lot of love in his heart...And he is up there with no one and nothing to love. It is a bad thing to have love and no where to put it.

I thought I was going nowhere. Now I can see there was a pattern.

I've been recognized in airports lots of places, but mostly getting recognized is at home.

Nobody ever learns anything.

Love is ridiculous. But love is also wonderful. And powerful. And Despereaux's love for the Princess Pea would prove, in time, to be all of these things: powerful, wonderful, and ridiculous.
