teenager book wind
When I was a teenager, the number one book I was most obsessed with was 'Gone with the Wind.
lying answers pits
The mosh pit will reveal all the answers. The mosh pit never lies. -Norah, Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
boys want distinction
She doesn't want the boy causing the distinction between "love" and "in love
hands years four
The Beatles, they had it all figured out, okay? 'I Want to Hold Your Hand.' The first single. It's effing brilliant, right?... That's what everybody wants... They don't want a twenty-four-hour hump sesh, they don't want to be married to you for a hundred years. They just want to hold your hand.
answers asks
Answer all the questions that I'm too afraid to ask
dream lying rain
I'm thinking I would like to dance in the rain with this person. I would like to lie next to him in the dark and watch him breathe and watch him sleep and wonder what he's dreaming about and not get an inferiority complex if the dreams aren't about me.
people focus citizens
Wold domination is exhausting and cliche. People ought to just focus on being individual responsible citizens of the earth instead of assholes.
book dull want
No one would want to read a book in which I explain the science of cloning because it would be very dull and it would also make no sense.
army laughing zombie
The best is when we all go at once, like an army of interrelated popcorn zombies who laugh the same laughs and gasp the same gasps and aren’t so germ-phobic with each other that we won’t share a ginormous Coke with one straw. Family is useful like that.
suicide destiny way
What's better, I wonder - to be a toy for the humans, or to control your own destiny , even if the only way to do so is suicide?
distance eye soul
From a distance, a clone's luminous eyes are meant to draw in humans and make them feel safe. Up close, the eyes appear hollow. Because of that, humans tend not to look into our eyes too closely, which I've been told is socially preferable, as eyes without souls behind them can be frightening.
girl pain mean
I mean, I think I am basically a cool girl, but I am also a pain in the ass.
song sex growing-up
You know the reason The Beatles made it so big?...'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' First single....brilliant. Perhaps the most...brilliant song ever written. Because they nailed it. That's what everyone wants. Not 24/7 hot wet sex. Not a marriage that lasts a hundred years. Not a Porsche...or a million-dollar crib. No. They wanna hold your hand. They have such a feeling that they can't hide. Every single successful song of the past fifty years can be traced back to 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' And every single successful love story has those unbearable and unbearably exciting moments of hand-holding.
soulmate half want
There is no such thing as a soulmate...and who would want there to be? I don't want half of a shared soul. I want my own damn soul.
