Only I will remain. - Frank Herbert, Dune 20. “It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were.

Copulation is spiritual in essence--or it is merely friendly exercise. On second thought, strike out "merely." Copulation is not "merely"--even when it is just a happy pastime for two strangers. But copulation at its spiritual best is so much more than physical coupling that it is different in kind as well as in degree. ROBERT A. HEINLEIN, The Notebooks of Lazarus Long

Masturbation is cheap, clean, convenient, and free of any possibility of wrong-doing--and you don’t have to go home in the cold. But it’s lonely. --Lazarus Long

Darling, a true lady takes off her dignity with her clothes and does her whorish best. At other times you can be as modest and dignified as your persona requires. -- Lazarus Long

My cousin told me years before I ever saw an episode that I would love Doctor Who. I just read a list of quotes.... and no wonder! His philosophy and mine are much the same (if you can call these philosophies. "Life Outlook" perhaps): 11. A Hand to Hold “There’s a lot of things you need to get across this universe. Warp drive… wormhole refractors… You know the thing you need most of all? You need a hand to hold.” — The Doctor, Season 6, Episode 6 13. Optimist “I am and always will be the optimist. The hoper of far-flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams.” — The Doctor, Season 6, Episode 6 7. Pretend It’s a Plan “Do what I do. Hold tight and pretend it’s a plan!” —The Doctor, Season 7, Christmas Special 1. Miracles “The universe is big. It’s vast and complicated and ridiculous. And sometimes, very rarely, impossible things just happen and we call them miracles.” — The Doctor, Season 5, Episode 12 2. Books are the Best Weapons “You want weapons? We’re in a library! Books! The best weapons in the world!” — The Doctor, Season 2, Episode 2
