Jasmine Smith
- Oh This Life I Call Mine
And so he waits patiently underneath a tattered umbrella and resumes his thoughts on this perfunctory life. Business is failing, the coffee's taste is wiped away from the rain that slashed in his cup, and the train has yet not arrived. Just another day in the life that he wishes he could not participate in.
You Decide
- Best Fitting Music
So I already wrote this idea down but then it got deleted so I'm going to try and say it again: The best type of music for people that are striving for peace is likely contemporary instrumental. If you are one that is sitting in silence, wanting to fill a void and don't know how, like me like 2 days ago, just turn on some instrumental restaurant music (likely French) and you will have peace of mind. Listen to this song and see where it takes you: "Rue des Trois Freres" by Fabrizio Paterlini.
Unknown
- Truth and Lies
"The truth is the truth, even if no one believes it. And a lie is a lie, even if everyone believes it." This is something my mother told me and I've never been able to forget. Thinking about it brings me both clarity and confusion.
Ali Benjamin
- The Thing about Jellyfish
Who knows? Maybe everybody's end isn't the day they actually die, but the last time anyone speaks of them. Maybe when you die you don't really disappear, but you fade into a shadow, dark and featureless, only your outlines visible. Over time, as people forget you, your silhouette gradually fades into darkness until the final time anyone says your name on this planet.
James Greiy
Great Grandpa is ninety-three years old and has the brain and body of a man in his thirties. He brags about this so often and with so little caution that he is nearly certain to get caught and spend the rest of his days in prison.
Eric H
Thee quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

- My heart breaks only for you
Meeting the right person at the right time, that is a fairytale. Meeting the right person at the wrong time, that is youth. "So why are you drowning me? Why can't I drown you to?"
Lauren Whang
- The Unexpected Unknown
The stinging sound of my mother's slap on Lindo's face echoes in my ear. The next couple of days are quite unforeseen and undesirable after I ruthlessly lie to my mother's face. That night, my heart races incredibly quickly as Lindo calmly rests next to me on my bed. I feel her inquisitive gaze on me waiting for me to react. My heart freezes in an uncomfortable position. The next night, Lindo sheds her simple cotton gown exposing her bare skin.
Madeline Miller
- The Song of Achilles
I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me. If I had had words to speak such a thing, I would have. But there were none that seemed big enough for it, to hold that swelling truth. As if he had heard me, he reached for my hand. I did not need to look; his fingers were etched into my memory, slender and petal-veined, strong and quick and never wrong. "Patroclus," he said. He was always better with words than I.
William Goldman
- The Princess Bride
"Do I love you? My God, if your love were a grain of sand, mine would be a universe of beaches." I love you right up to the moon-and back. I've never had a moment's doubt. I love you. I believe in you completely. You are my dearest one. My reason for life.
Pay Money To My Pain
Through all of this noise Chasing a shadow Why looking for answers, just leaves a question? Behind the notes And outside the lines What you left behind? What I feel inside? We are your voice We are still with you When you can't speak, with so much to say More than a word More than a melody What you left behind? What I feel inside? I hear your voice...
Harvey Specter - Suits
- First impressions last.
You were giving me crap this morning because I come and go when I want to. You know why I can do that? Because when I got here, I dominated. They thought I worked a hundred hours a day. Now, no matter what time I get in, nobody questions my ability to get the job done. Get it through your head: first impressions last. You start behind the eight ball, you'll never get in front.
Suits
- Gun to your head.
What are your choices when someone puts a gun to your head?" "What are you talking about? You do what they say or they shoot you." "Wrong. You take the gun. Or you pull out a bigger one. Or you call their bluff. Or you do any one of 146 other things. If you can't think for yourself, maybe you aren't cut out for this.
Suits Season 9
- One Last Con
You know... I never told you how many times I thought about us being together over the years. And it was usually on nights like tonight, when I didn't know if things were gonna turn out okay. But I knew it doesn't matter if it's Faye or Tanner or Hardman or Goliath. Whoever it is, no one stands a chance against Harvey Specter.
Lexa Brenton
Follow your heart, if it should happen to wander. Otherwise, it will go off without you, and then how will your blood circulate around your body? It is a vital organ, after all.
Taylor Sheridan
- Wind River
There is a meadow in my perfect world. Where wind dances the branches of a tree, casting leopard spots of light across the face of a pond... The tree stands tall and grand and alone, shading the world beneath it. It is here, in the cradle of all I hold dear, I guard every memory of you. And when I find myself frozen in the mud of the real - far from your loving eyes, I will return to this place, close mine, and take solace in the simple perfection of knowing you.
Hannah Gadsby
- Powerless - Nanette - Hannah Gadsby
To be rendered powerless does not destroy your humanity. Resilience is your humanity. The only people who lose their humanity are the people who think they have the right to render another human being powerless.
Hanna Gadsby
- Tension - Nanette - Hannah Gadsby
Do you know why I am so funny? It is because I have been learning the art of tension diffusion since I was a child. Back then, it was a survival tactic. I didn't have to invent the tension... I was the tension. But now, I am tired of the tension.
Eric Kripke
- Sam
No, it's exactly what you meant. Do you wanna know what I confessed in there? What my greatest sin was? Was how many times I let you down. I can't do that again.
