Bachelor Folklore: The only thing I got
@@@@@
Bachelor Folklore: The only thing I got against marriage is people are just too disinteresting to be forced to spend their lives together
Brown: You don't know what you're sayin'Wait'll it's there for you, nice and steady, an' not worryin' about gettin' caughtThe thing to do with women is to try it
Folklore (dirty jokes): Sacrebleu, the ninety-eighth way
The middle of the night: Now, go 'way, leave me alone, Willie, I thought we agreed to lay off for a couple of daysYou said we were getting too used to it(Exasperation and submission You're just an old hound dog, that's all you areAlways wanting to put it in something(The alloy of tenderness and irritation, unique to marriage
There are external shocksHis sister, Patty, gets a divorce, and he hears talk, merely the faintest suggestions, but he is worriedHe asks her, subtly he thinks, but she flares at him
What do you mean, Willie, Brad coulda had the divorce instead of me?
I don't mean anything, I'm just asking you
Listen, Willie-boy, you don't have to be looking at me thatawayI am what I am, that's all, you understand?
The shock enters, burrows deeply, and explodes sporadically for months to followThere are times in the middle of the day when he halts in the middle of a report, catches himself looking at his pencilYou're not such a roughneck, Patty says, slim and crisp and virginal, the older sister -- half mother
Memory as the flagellantI don't understand it a goddam bitWhat the hell makes them change that way, why can't a woman stay decent?
You'll never be like that, will you, Beverly? he says that night
Aw, no, honey, how can you even think it?
They are very close for the moment, and his troubles spill outHonestly, Bev, keeping up with everything makes me go so goddam fast; I get so I just want to take a breath, you know what I meanA man's own sister, it puts quite a stir in you | | 2:16 am |

@@@@@She
managed to
smile at a small black boy who was waving them off with a big
heart-shaped fan made of some woven dried straw-like stuffBy the
time they reached the rows of limp-necked birds, she was sufficiently
herself again to think about trimming a hat with some of the
feathers
"Which feathers, dear?" asked Mrs"The pheasant? Of course
you may have some She bargained briskly with the inkblack fat
woman
who was selling the birds, finally buying a large handful that she
plucked herself for a penny"What in blue blazes is Eleanor doing?"
said a voice at Scarlett's elbowShe looked around and saw Sally
Brewton's monkey face
"Good morning, ScarlettWhy is Eleanor buying the inedible parts of
that bird? Or has someone discovered a way to cook feathers? I have
several mattresses that I'm not using right now Scarlett explained
why she wanted themShe could feel herself getting red in the face
Maybe only "fancy pieces" wore trimmed hats in Charleston"What a
good idea!" said Sally with genuine enthusiasm
"I have an old riding top hat that could be resurrected with a cockade
of ribbon and some feathers trailing down from itIf I can find it,
it's been so long since I used it lastDo you ride, Scarlett?"
"Not for years She tried to remember
"Not since before the War
"What do you miss, Sally?" MrsShe held out the
feathers to Celie"Tie a piece of string 'round these, at both ends,
and be careful not to crush them"Excuse me,"
she
said with a laugh, "I'll miss Brewton's sausageThank goodness I saw
you, Sally, it had clean slipped my mind She hurried away, with
Celie in pursuitSally smiled at Scarlett's puzzled expression | | Saturday, January 1st, 2011 | | 2:34 am |

I can see better as I gather as much as I can carryMmm, chocolate chip cookiesI'm dying to
open the bag right now, but I grit my teeth and ignore the twist of my empty stomach
The bag gets heavy too quicklyThis will last us only a week, even if we're careful with itAnd
I don't feel like being careful; I feel like gorgingI shove granola bars into my pocketsI hurry to the sink and refill my canteenThen I put my head under the flow
and gulp straight from the streamThe water makes odd noises when it hits my hollow stomach
I start to feel panicked now that my job is doneI want to be out of hereCivilization is deadly
I watch the floor on my way out, worried about tripping with my heavy bag, which is why I
don't see the silhouetted black figure on the patio until my hand is on the door

Look at your watch The Deuxième veteran glanced away, nodding aimlessly at several people in nearby chairs as he continued, his lips barely moving“Go out the door on the far left, the one used for luggageHurry!” “No!” replied Marie, her head down, her eyes on her watch“You know me chanel bag price but I don’t know you!

"You'd be surprised," Wireman said"The gun fires
off a spring and a CO2 cartridgeShe bangs pretty

a bottle of hydrogen peroxideNow he took the

tip"What is it? Silver?"
Wireman made his thumb and forefinger into a gun
and pointed it at him"Hold your cards, but
Wireman thinks you have scored a Bingo
"And you don't get that?" Jack asked
Wireman and I looked at each other, then at Jack
again
"You haven't been watching the right movies," he
said"Silver bullets are what you use to kill
werewolvesI don't know if silver works on
vampires or not, but obviously somebody thought it
did
"If you're suggesting Tessie and Laura Eastlake
are vampires," Wireman said, "they must have built
up a hell of a thirst since 1927 He looked at me,
expecting corroboration
"I think Jack's onto something," I saidI took
the bottle of peroxide, dipped the finger I'd

pricked into it, and splashed the bottle up and
down a couple of times
"Man-law," Jack said, grimacing
"Not unless you were planning to drink it," I said,
and after a moment's consideration Jack and I both

@@@@@The writers he's got up there, the talent, all grubbing away, afraid to leave 'cause it's two hundred a week, and they don't know what they can do on their ownI tell you my stomach turns every time I see them grind out the particular brand of swill at which he's so trickyJabbing out a cigaretteWhat are you in this racket for?
I'm playing it for the laughs
Sure you're not trying to be a writer from the wrong end?
No, I'm not writer, I don't have a deep enough itch
Jesus, there's a million who haveI don't know anybody who's worth a goddam
Who does?
Get potted, get screwed, and get up in the morning, somehow
And the women:
Hearn, she says, in her deep husky voice, you're a shell, you're nothing but a goddam shellAfter you've had fifty thousand of us up here, you'll probably cut it off and hang it up to dryYou learned an acceptable wiggle somewhere along the line and you think that's all you need to get byYou've got a faeces complex, haven't you, you can't stand being touchedYou get me so goddam mad, a million miles away, aren't you, nothing ever hits youNothing's worth touching
Oh, the girl says quietly in her childish breathless voice, you're really good, there's such goodness in you, but you're wrong, you see, because true compassion is evil, when I was in the hospital there were a few minutes when I loved a doctor, and then I didn't care about him any more, and when I was in the shock treatment I kept thinking contact was evil, and it's only freedom that's worth while, it's why you don't want me because you're free and good
Her voice is reedy, well modulatedOh, well, darling, what could I do, it was perfectly preposterous, all those silly apprentices just loathing my guts, all of them perfectly convinced of course they could do the thing better than I could, and my God you should have seen some of the interpretations they had, they were just bound to make trouble, and they creamed everything, everything, between Eddie and me, I could have had the ingénue in Sing at Breakfast, I don't know why I hang around with you, I'm just wasting my time
Still there are momentsDifferent women, different nights, when he lies in embrace, steeped in a woman's flesh until the brew is intolerably joyousThere are love harvestings, sometimes months in a row when there is one woman, one affair, and a proud secret knowledge of each other's loins, admirable matings, sensitive and various, lewd or fierce or dallying gently, sometimes sweet and innocent like young lovers
Only it never lasts
I can't tell you why, he says one night to a friendIt's just every time I start an affair, I know how it's going to endThe end of everything is in the beginnings for meIt's going through the motions | | Monday, December 27th, 2010 | | 2:34 am |

were of no matter
"Why don't you arrange your chinas, Elizabeth?

“I thoroughly understand you,” cried MrsNorris, “you are everything
that is generous and considerate, and I am sure we shall never
disagree on this pointWhatever I can do, as you well know, I am
always ready enough to do for the good of those I love; and, though I
could never feel for this little girl the hundredth part of the regard I
bear your own dear children, nor consider her, in any respect, so much
my own, I should hate myself if I were capable of neglecting herIs
not she a sister’s child? and could I bear to see her want while I had a
bit of bread to give her? My dear Sir Thomas, with all my faults I have
a warm heart; and, poor as I am, would rather deny myself the necessaries
of life than do an ungenerous thingSo, if you are not against it,
I will write to my poor sister tomorrow, and make the proposal; and,
as soon as matters are settled, I will engage to get the child to Mansfield;
you shall have no trouble about itMy own trouble, you know, I never
regardI will send Nanny to London on purpose, and she may have a
bed at her cousin the saddler’s, and the child be appointed to meet her
thereThey may easily get her from Portsmouth to town by the coach,
under the care of any creditable person that may chance to be going
I dare say there is always some reputable tradesman’s wife or other
going up
Except to the attack on Nanny’s cousin, Sir Thomas no longer
made any objection, and a more respectable, though less economical
rendezvous being accordingly substituted, everything was considered
as settled, and the pleasures of so benevolent a scheme were
already enjoyedThe division of gratifying sensations ought not, in
strict justice, to have been equal; for Sir Thomas was fully resolved
to be the real and consistent patron of the selected child, and Mrs
Norris had not the least intention of being at any expense whatever
in her maintenanceAs far as walking, talking, and contriving
reached, she was thoroughly benevolent, and nobody knew better

Mansfield Park
how to dictate liberality to others; but her love of money was equal
to her love of directing, and she knew quite as well how to save her
own as to spend that of her friendsHaving married on a narrower
income than she had been used to look forward to, she had, from
the first, fancied a very strict line of economy necessary; and what
was begun as a matter of prudence, soon grew into a matter of choice,
as an object of that needful solicitude which there were no children
to supplyHad there been a family to provide for, MrsNorris might
never have saved her money; but having no care of that kind, there
was nothing to impede her frugality, or lessen the comfort of making
a yearly addition to an income which they had never lived up to
Under this infatuating principle, counteracted by no real affection
for her sister, it was impossible for her to aim at more than the
credit of projecting and arranging so expensive a charity; though
perhaps she might so little know herself as to walk home to the
Parsonage, after this conversation, in the happy belief of being the
most liberal-minded sister and aunt in the world
When the subject was brought forward again, her views were more
fully explained; and, in reply to Lady Bertram’s calm inquiry of
“Where shall the child come to first, sister, to you or to us?” Sir
Thomas heard with some surprise that it would be totally out of
MrsNorris’s power to take any share in the personal charge of her
He had been considering her as a particularly welcome addition at
the Parsonage, as a desirable companion to an aunt who had no
children of her own; but he found himself wholly mistaken
Norris was sorry to say that the little girl’s staying with them, at least
as things then were, was quite out of the questionNorris’s
indifferent state of health made it an impossibility: he could no
more bear the noise of a child than he could fly; if, indeed, he should
ever get well of his gouty complaints, it would be a different matter:
she should then be glad to take her turn, and think nothing of the
inconvenience; but just now, poor MrNorris took up every moment
of her time, and the very mention of such a thing she was sure
would distract him
“Then she had better come to us,” said Lady Bertram, with the
utmost composureAfter a short pause Sir Thomas added with dignity,
