41 " Imagine hearing a group of drunken warriors shouting your name and following it with a must die . Suddenly I missed my superspecial tagline: Great-granddaughter of Adelaide Wallingford. The tagline Must Die totally sucked. "

42 " 'You do know what magic is, don't you?'Magic's when you close your eyes, make a wish, and it comes true.''No, that's coincidence.'Magic's when a princess kisses a frog and it turns into a prince.''No, that's evolution.'Isabelle scratched her neck. 'Well, then, what is magic? "

43 " Imagine if we all went around telling people exactly what we were thinking—we’d all sound like a bunch of third graders. MY Vincent drink will be much better than YOUR Vincent drink. "

44 " He didn't say anything. Then he leaned closer, so that his arm touched my shoulder. A jolt ran down my body. Everyone in our little group watched, waiting for a response. "I would be honored to escort you, Katrina.""Oh. Okay." I pulled the bathrobe collar as high as it would go to hide my flaming cheeks.Malcolm slapped his hand on his knee, then turned to the man sitting next to us and said,way too loudly, "I'm taking Katrina to the Solstice Festival.""Good for you kid. "
45 " Well, he's not a weirdo." I didn't turn around to look at Malcolm because he was probably eating dish soap or mayonnaise or something. "
46 " Standing in the beam of refrigerator light, Malcolm squirted ketchup into his mouth."He's . . . visiting," I said.Vincent narrowed his eyes and his voice took on a fatherly tone. "Why's he here at midnight?" Malcolm licked the inside of a mustard lid, then said, "I'm here at midnight because I'm fulfilling Katrina's desire. "
47 " In her sleep?" I couldn't believe it. "How did she say it? I mean, did she sound angry?"He frowned. "I don't know how she said it.""Come on try to remember. Was it sad like this...Owen? Or was it kind of sweet like this...Ownen? Or was it- "

48 " I cant help but notice that you are not wearing a wedding ring, dear lady. Are you, by any chance, looking for a husband?' He smiled eagerly, his drenched hat clinging to his round head.Looking for a husband? Why?' Grandma Maxine asked. 'Did I lose one? "
49 " My son, there is no reason to be distraught. The leeches will cleanse your wound." The friar scratched one of his enormous ears with the tweezers. "My insurance doesn't cover freaky friars or leeches." Troy sat up and swung his legs over the cot. A strip of cloth was wrapped around his gray tights, just above his left knee. A dark red stain had spread across the strip. "When my agent finds out you've kept me here, instead of taking me to a hospital, he'll cram a lawsuit up your butt so fast you'll be the one who's...distraught. "
50 " You got anything more to eat?" He walked into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and pulled out a cube of butter. Before I could stop him he took a bite. He worked the butter around inn his mouth, then swallowed. "Bit odd," he said, setting the rest of the cube onto the counter. "
51 " Juliet took a hesitant step toward Troy, looking at him the way a child looks at a new toy. "I've henver heard a man speak in such a manner. Who are you?"I'm...""That's Troy." O saod, stepping between them. The less Golden Boy said the better. "
52 " We shall sing and be merry. Troy had agreed to sing my song 'Girl, Come Hither and We Shall Dither.""Uh, not really," Troy said."Perhaps you would prefer 'Girl, Come and Handle My Candle? "
53 " Si mamá hubiera sido diagnosticada con cáncer, o si ella sufriera un derrame cerebral, o incluso si fuera un desastre de cirugía plástica, no habría ninguna vergüenza. No tendría que ocultarlo. La gente se apresuraría para ayudar. El editor entendería. Pero nadie consigue escribir buenas tarjetas para enfermedades mentales.Lamento escuchar acerca de la esquizofrenia. Espero que esas voces desaparezcan pronto.Lamento escuchar que tienes desorden de personalidad múltiple. Espero que todos ustedes comiencen a sentirse mejor.Lamento escuchar acerca de tu depresión catatónica. Trata de mantener tu lado soleado arriba. "

54 " We walked up the steps of a quaint stone church. "Get those friggin' leeches away from me!" a familiar voice yelled from a second story window...."I said, no leeches! "
55 " La química del cerebro es como una receta de la Sra. Bobot, nunca sabes como va a terminar. Añades un poco de esto y tienes una persona que puede ver auras. Quita un poco de eso y tienes una persona que está tan deprimida, que no puede hablar ni moverse. Espolvoreas con otra cosa y tienes una persona que está enamorada de por vida. "
56 " A veces las cosas nos encuentran, atraídas por fuerzas que no podemos ver o comprender. "
57 " Solitary muttering allows you to say all those things you don't have the courage to say to all those people who aredriving you nuts. "
58 " Running away from home is not a good idea. Unless, of course, you happen to be forty years old, and then your parents will probably shout, "Hurrah!" and change the locks the minute you've stepped off the front stoop. But in the case of Gwendolyn and Homer, ages fifteen and twelve, setting off in the middle of the night would only bring their parents immense heartache and worry. "

59 " He wondered if burned books made a special kind of smoke that clung to the world forever, in the same way that a book, once read, clings to its reader forever. "
60 " —¿Saben cual es mi historia de amor favorita? —Interrumpió la Señora Bobot. —Gone with the wind. Ahora es si que es una historia de amor.—Pero esa tampoco tiene un final feliz, —dije. —Rhett Bulter deja a Scarlett O’Hara.—Ella estaba mejor sin él, —dijo Realm. —Era un idiota.—No, no lo era, —dijo la Señora Bobot. —Scarlett estaba demasiado ciega para ver que Rhett era perfecto para ella.—Bella y Edward tuvieron un final feliz, —dije.El Reverendo frunció el ceño. —No me es familiar esa historia.—Bella acaba siendo una mama adolescente no muerta. Si eso te parece un final feliz tienes problemas, —dijo Realm. "
