    Behcet Kaya
    “As for me? My given name is Jacques Ludefance, Jack for short. If I had to describe myself? I’m 44, six-foot-two, with a long face, high cheek bones, dark hair and mustache, and deep green eyes, which have always been a hit with the ladies. On the down-side there is a deep scar on my right cheek, the slash extending from my eye to my lip that not even my deep tan can hide; which is definitely not a hit with the ladies. At first glance, they either back off, or are curious as to how it happened. My standard answer is short and simple, alligator bite. Growing up in Louisiana, I did some crazy things as a kid. Tangling with alligators was one of them.”
    Behcet Kaya, Treacherous Estate

    Markus Zusak
    “Liesel continued the examination. She moved around him and shrugged. "Not bad."
    Not bad!" I look better than just not bad."
    The shoes let you down. And your face."
    Rudy placed the lantern on the counter and came toward her in mock-anger, and Liesel had to admit that a nervousness started gripping her. It was with both relief and disappointment that she watched him trip and fall on the disgraced mannequin.
    On the floor, Rudy laughed.
    Then he closed his eyes, clenching them hard.

    Liesel rushed over.
    She crouched above him.
    Kis him, Liesel, kiss him.
    Are you all right, Rudy? Rudy?"

    I miss him," said the boy, sideways, across the floor.
    Frohe Weihnachten," Liesel replied. She helped him up, straightening the suit. "Merry Christmas.”
    Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

    Susan Cain
    “We like to believe that we live in a grand age of creative individualism. We look back at the midcentury era in which the Berkeley researchers conducted their creativity studies, and feel superior. Unlike the starched-shirted conformists of the 1950s, we hang posters of Einstein on our walls, his tongue stuck out iconoclastically. We consume indie music and films, and generate our own online content. We “think different” (even if we got the idea from Apple Computer’s famous ad campaign). But the way we organize many of our most important institutions—our schools and our workplaces—tells a very different story.”
    Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

    Charles Frazier
    “My opinion was that if hogs are biting you so often that you have to stop and make up a specific word for it, maybe lack of vocabulary is not your most pressing problem.”
    Charles Frazier, Thirteen Moons
