Ginger, on preparing to travel:
When I start worrying whether if I have everything, I use the mantra, "You're not going to darkest Africa. You can buy underwear where you're going."
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
In Bitches, Erin:
God, I didn't just abuse exclamation points there, I freakin' strung 'em up, flogged them and sold 'em as child prostitutes.

Aimee, in Bitches, on living with the princess:
While priming the dining room last night, Joe accidentally stepped on Em's dinosaur and smashed it to bits. He valiantly tried to get it into the garbage before she noticed.
Not so much.
For the next half hour, we were treated to a barrage of, "You broke my dinosaur! HEY! You broke my dinosaur! You broke my dinosaur!"
Finally I snapped and said, "Em. Daddy said he was sorry. We will get you a new dinosaur. That dinosaur is dead. Everything dies. Get over it." (I was verry tired and cranky.)
Joe says, "You're using a broken dinosaur to teach her about death? I thought we'd wait for a hamster or a goldfish."
"You want to listen to a half-hour of 'You broke my goldfish'?" I ask him.
He's about to respond when Em bursts back into the room.
"YOU BROKE MY GOLDFISH!! HEY! YOU BROKE MY GOLDFISH!!"

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Zenkitty's social commentary on the above incident:
Poor Em's dinosaur. Such an ignoble demise. Crushed under the heel of the patriarchy.

Lee:
I'm probably too old to build a pillow fort and hang a sign on it telling people to go away, aren't I?
Sparky1:
Yes.
You should build your fort out of bricks, and tie your sign to rocks that you lob at those who dare approach.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Hil R.: I should probably be doing something more productive than reading fanfic and eating an apple and string cheese.

Jon B.: My brother has this idea that I'll like anything that's "wacky".
Polter-Cow: You do wear silver clothing and create music by moving your hands in the air.
On television.
Jon B.: What? I can't have layers?
