...The next time I opened my eyes, I was in the morgue. This, all by itself, is enough to really ruin your day.

Dresden. Am I interrupting something? Well, I was going to settle down with a porn video and a bottle of baby oil, but I really don't have enough for two.

Faith is about what you do. It's about aspiring to be better and nobler and kinder than you are. It's about making sacrifices for the good of others-- even when there's not going to be anyone telling you what a hero you are.

You can't abandon life just because it's scary, and just because you get hurt.

There's more magic in a baby's first giggle than in any firestorm a wizard can conjure up, and don't let anyone tell you any different.

Sometimes I think that's where most of us are. Fighting off the crazy as best we can. Trying to become something better than we were. It's that second bit that's important.

Life would be unbearably dull if we had answers to all our questions.

Have you ever felt despair? Absolute hopelessness? Have you ever stood in the darkness and known, deep in your heart, in your spirit, that it was never, ever going to get better? That something had been lost, forever, and that it wasn't coming back?
