"I will either find a way, or make one."

-- Kate Elliott

“Do you remember when we played in Spain in the Anglo-Italian Cup?”
“Agnosticism has nothing to impart. Its sermons are the exhortations of one who convinces you he stands on nothing and urges you to stand there too.”
“To rejoice in temporal comforts is dangerous, to rejoice in self is foolish, to rejoice in sin is fatal, but to rejoice in God is heavenly.”
“From about eight years old I was always making things on the sewing machine. Friends would see me making dresses and costumes, and I'd use difficult fabrics such as Lycra and elastic. But you know, my dad was creative and my brother is inventive too.”
“It's a question of not copying the masters, to look for something, good or bad, for oneself. To enter this liberated state of mind, one cannot copy the others.”
“I amused myself playing with the journalists.”
“Contrary to what the politicians and religious leaders would like us to believe, the world won't be made safer by creating barriers between people.”

“My name is Cassie Palmer and Iâ€™ve cheated death more times than anyone has a right to expect. In the last two months, Iâ€™ve been shot, stabbed, beaten and blown up a few dozen times, and that doesnâ€™t count all the magical ways Iâ€™ve almost been killed. Iâ€™d have been dead a long time ago if not for my friends, one of whom had just jumped off the cliff after me. Iâ€™d have been a lot more appreciative if he hadnâ€™t pushed me first.”
