I'm not usually a quote-puller, but lately these books have been raining down the wisdom on me. Dropping knowledge and whatnot. Figured I'd pass it along.
"You know why experts don't have an easy answer? Because a fucking expert's the guy who knows how complicated the fucking questions are."
-Claire North, The Sudden Appearance of Hope
"No wolf or bear just gives up when they get beat or hungry. you ever seen a bear jump off a cliff 'cause life handed him a few rough draws? No, you haven't. The wild keeps going till it don't have strength in the muscles and bones. The wild don't give up; it's forever, and so was I."
-Beth Lewis, The Wolf Road
"There is exquisite pleasure in subduing an insolent spirit, in making a person predetermined to dislike acknowledge one's superiority."
-Jane Austen, Lady Susan
