Non-fic: Three Books
Because I should be writing, and I'm not...

Three Books
1~ Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
"Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta."

2~ Faust by Johann Wolfgang Gothe
"The Ancient One I like sometimes to see, but not to quarrel with him, am always civil. 'Tis courteous in so great a lord as he, to speak so kindly to the devil."

3~ V for Vendetta by Alan Moore and David Lloyd
"'Give me a viking funeral,' you said. That isn't much. That isn't much to ask, after all you did. You came out of an abattoir unharmed, but not unchanged. And saw freedom's necessity, not just for you, but for us all. You saw, and seeing, dared to do."
