Stephenie MeyerIt is hubris, claim the critics of 'absolutism', to suppose that we could ever even approximate to a true description of how the world anyway is. It is bad faith or 'bullshit', respond 'absolutists', to suppose - as the rhetoric of postmodernism implies - that we could seriously live and act with the thought that truth and value are simply our own projections.

I think it's good to win like that, by taking the initiative right from the off.

What would a life be without them? Completely tranquilized and loveless . . . There is a secret love hiding in each problem

William John Macquorn RankineCats were often familiars to workers of magic because to anyone used to wrestling with self-willed, wayward, devious magic--which was what all magic was--it was rather soothing to have all the same qualities wrapped up in a small, furry, generally attractive bundle that...might, if it were in a good mood, sit on your knee and purr. Magic never sat on anybody's knee and purred.

Pete TownshendTaking the things people do wrong seriously is part of taking them seriously. Itโs part of letting their actions have weight. Itโs part of letting their actions be actions rather than just indifferent shopping choices; of letting their lives tell a life-story, with consequences, and losses, and gains, rather than just be a flurry of events. Itโs part of letting them be real enough to be worth loving, rather than just attractive or glamorous or pretty or charismatic or cool.
