And I'm proud. - Feeney

You shouldn't have private conversations in public facilities at the top of your lungs. Point well taken, Eve was forced to admit.

Stupid son of a bitchHis droopy eyes went huge. What did you say to me?You heard me. You're too tight-assed. To stubborn, too to put your feelings aside. I can't afford to lose a key member at this stage of the investigation. You that, so don't come in here and tell me I've got cause to boot you.You're the one who's going to get a boot, right straight up your ass.You couldn't take me ten years ago, she shot back, you sure as hell can't take me now.Want to test that out, kid?

The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.} Alexander McCall Smith

No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search.

But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole. Mitch Albom

But an ink brush, she thinks, is a skeleton key for a prisoner's mind. David Mitchell

we get so many lives between birth and death. A life to be a child. A life to come of age. A life to wander, to settle, to fall in love, to parent, to test our promise, to realize our mortality-and, in some lucky cases, to do something after that realization. Mitch Albom
