1 " I had begun to think my ripening body would wither untasted on the vine. "
― Jacqueline Carey , Kushiel's Dart (Phèdre's Trilogy, #1)
2 " Yet, when this cherished volume was now placed in my hand—when I turned over its leaves, and sought in its marvellous pictures the charm I had, till now, never failed to find—all was eerie and dreary; the giants were gaunt goblins, the pigmies malevolent and fearful imps, Gulliver a most desolate wanderer in most dread and dangerous regions. I closed the book, which I dared no longer peruse, and put it on the table, beside the untasted tart. "
― Charlotte Brontë , Jane Eyre
