"It's not my fault if Tanks are bottoms and healers are tops."

[SurvivALIST]

With a finger, he pointed toward his head.
“The world isn’t inside the head. The world is……”
The finger pointing at the head pointed towards the sky.
“Outside.”
A strength set in his voice.
“Don’t just think, but personally act. You already have plenty of answers. Now, it is time……”
A smile hanged in Roan’s mouth.
“To prove the answer.”
With this, the lecture was over.

Literally the whole 'The Alchemist' book.

"It was the best place to be, thought Wilbur, this warm delicious cellar, with the garrulous geese, the changing seasons, the heat of the sun, the passage of swallows, the nearness of rats, the sameness of sheep, the love of spiders, the smell of manure, and the glory of everything." -Charlotte's Web

There's something about the rhythm of it that really works for me.

“The worst part of being truly alone is you think about all the times you wished that everyone would just leave you be. Then they do, and you are left being, and you turn out to be terrible company."

Turtles All The Way Down is something I can find a place called home. John Green perfectly described how Aza Holmes, the protagonist, is stuck with what she's stuck with. And it's the only book that's like a diary to me, all my life in 300 pages. This quote resonates so much with me it is almost scary, that is, in a good way.

I saw @Ranty-cat... then confused myself for a whole minute seeing the new pfp lol

[Ranty-cat]

Hahaha I am glad that you at least remembered me and recognised me. I thought nobody could tell. (clumsy Detective mode ️‍♀️️‍♂️)

"If to be truthful is to be cruel, then lying must surely be an act of kindness. And so, kindness is a lie."

"I don't think ignorance is necessarily a bad thing. The more you know, the more problems you have."

"The past makes you wanna die out of regret and future make you depressed out of anxiety. So by elimination, the present is likely the happiest time."

"People will rationalize their own behavior whenever they become tainted with evil; they're not supposed to be evil. In order to preserve their own twisted integrity, the world becomes twisted."

"A problem's not a problem as long as nobody sees it as one."

"When you pick the only option you have to choose from, can you really call that your own decision?"

—Hikigaya Hachiman, Oregairu

[LunarScyphozoa]

“Wherever you go, you take yourself with you”

[BlunderingAlbatross]

“All right," said Susan. "I'm not stupid. You're saying humans need... fantasies to make life bearable."

REALLY? AS IF IT WAS SOME KIND OF PINK PILL? NO. HUMANS NEED FANTASY TO BE HUMAN. TO BE THE PLACE WHERE THE FALLING ANGEL MEETS THE RISING APE.

"Tooth fairies? Hogfathers? Little—"

YES. AS PRACTICE. YOU HAVE TO START OUT LEARNING TO BELIEVE THE LITTLE LIES.

"So we can believe the big ones?"

YES. JUSTICE. MERCY. DUTY. THAT SORT OF THING.

"They're not the same at all!"

YOU THINK SO? THEN TAKE THE UNIVERSE AND GRIND IT DOWN TO THE FINEST POWDER AND SIEVE IT THROUGH THE FINEST SIEVE AND THEN SHOW ME ONE ATOM OF JUSTICE, ONE MOLECULE OF MERCY. AND YET—Death waved a hand. AND YET YOU ACT AS IF THERE IS SOME IDEAL ORDER IN THE WORLD, AS IF THERE IS SOME...SOME RIGHTNESS IN THE UNIVERSE BY WHICH IT MAY BE JUDGED.

"Yes, but people have got to believe that, or what's the point—"

MY POINT EXACTLY.”

Basically just this whole bit is beautiful.

Although I love pretty much anything written by Terry!

Any random line from Dungeon Defense is more beautiful than many quotes from books that must have taken ages to think. Dungeon Defense is probably the magnum opus of all Light Novels.

[queentrashmuffin]

"The planet has survived everything, in its time. It will certainly survive us." Jurassic Park the book.

Although I am not so sure the planet will survive us...

[Ranty-cat]

Alright. This is actually my favourite speech / quote. (Spoiler alert)
