“Dear Diary, Today I tried not to think about Mr. Knightly. I tried not to think about him when I discussed the menu with Cook... I tried not to think about him in the garden where I thrice plucked the petals off a daisy to acertain his feelings for Harriet. I don't think we should keep daisies in the garden, they really are a drab little flower. And I tried not to think about him when I went to bed, but something had to be done.”

― Jane Austen

A quote for your week. 

“They had no conversation together, no intercourse but what the commonest civility required. Once so much to each other! Now nothing! There had been a time, when of all the large party now filling the drawing-room at Uppercross, they would have found it most difficult to cease to speak to one another. With the exception, perhaps, of Admiral and Mrs. Croft, who seemed particularly attached and happy, (Anne could allow no other exception even among the married couples) there could have been no two hearts so open, no tastes so simliar, no feelings so in unison, no countenances so beloved. Now they were as strangers; nay, worse than strangers, for they could never become aquainted. It was a perpetual estrangement.” 

― Jane Austen, Persuasion

They scream that they are 52, 89, 91, 73, 60, 97, 57

A quote for your week. 

"His ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge. Of contemporary literature, philosophy and politics he appeared to know nothing. Upon my quoting Thomas Carlyle, he inquired in the naivest way who he might be and what he had done. My surprise reached a climax, however, when I found incidentally that he was ignorant of the Copernican Theory and of the composition of the Solar System. That any civilized being in this nineteenth century should not be aware that the earth traveled round the sun appeared to me to be such an extraordinary fact that I could hardly realize it."

 - A Study in Scarlet a Sherlock Holmes novel

― Steven Brust, Sethra Lavode

Scorpio
October 24 - November 22

Your night will be good.

A quote for your week. 

"We had got as far as this, when who should walk in but the gentleman himself, who had been drinking his beer in the tap-room and had heard the whole conversation. Who was I? What did I want? What did I mean by asking questions? He had a fine flow of language, and his adjectives were very vigorous. He ended a string of abuse by a vicious back-hander, which I failed to entirely avoid. The next few minutes were delicious. It was a straight left against a slogging ruffian. I emerged as you see me. Mr. Woodley went home in a cart. So ended my country trip, and it must be confessed that, however enjoyable, my day on the Surrey border has not been much more profitable than your own." 

-The Return of Sherlock Holmes

A quote for your week.

A quote for your week. 

“One reason I’m still around to tell you these stories is because when I’m doing big things that are crazy, I try to play it safe with as much of the little stuff as I can. It’s worked so far, right? Of course, “It’s worked so far, right?” do pretty well as last words, so let’s not get cocky about it.”

 ― Steven Brust, Vallista

Twitching on the ground

Twitching on the ground. Creepy crawly legs squiggling away. 

The stoned cat slobbers after them.

"It was worth a wound; it was worth many wounds; to know the depth of loyalty and love which lay behind that cold mask. The clear, hard eyes were dimmed for a moment, and the firm lips were shaking. For the one and only time I caught a glimpse of a great heart as well as of a great brain. All my years of humble but single-minded service culminated in that moment of revelation." 

-The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes

A quote for your week. 

“It isn't always easy to act on what's in your head instead of what's in your heart. And it isn't always right to. The whole trick to knowing what to do is deciding when to make yourself listen to your head, and when it's okay to just follow your feelings.”

A quote for your week.

A quote for your week. 

"Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. If we could fly out of that window hand in hand, hover over this great city, gently remove the roofs, and peep in at the queer things which are going on, the strange coincidences, the plannings, the cross-purposes, the wonderful chains of events, working through generations, and leading to the most outre results, it would make all fiction with its conventionalities and foreseen conclusions most stale and unprofitable." 

-The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

A quote for your week. 

“The Cool Stuff Theory of Literature is as follows: All literature consists of whatever the writer thinks is cool. The reader will like the book to the degree that he agrees with the writer about what's cool. And that works all the way from the external trappings to the level of metaphor, subtext, and the way one uses words. In other words, I happen not to think that full-plate armor and great big honking greatswords are cool. I don't like 'em. I like cloaks and rapiers. So I write stories with a lot of cloaks and rapiers in 'em, 'cause that's cool. Guys who like military hardware, who think advanced military hardware is cool, are not gonna jump all over my books, because they have other ideas about what's cool.The novel should be understood as a structure built to accommodate the greatest possible amount of cool stuff.”

 ― Steven Brust

A quote for your week. 

“I swear it on my soul. Actor: I look like a troll. Makeup Artist: You could be on the dole. Actors: There should be some sorcery To smooth this out for me But we’re just going through the lotions Hope this one doesn’t suck. Actor: If some gets in my mouth I think I’ll—yuck. Makeup Artist: You can see from your reflection This won’t work with your complexion. Actor: Where will it all end? Makeup Artist: Dejection.

“From the very beginning— from the first moment, I may almost say— of my acquaintance with you, your manners, impressing me with the fullest belief of your arrogance, your conceit, and your selfish disdain of the feelings of others, were such as to form the groundwork of disapprobation on which succeeding events have built so immovable a dislike; and I had not known you a month before I felt that you were the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed on to marry.”

You connect yourself to the viewer by sharing something that is inside of you that connects with something inside of him. All you have as your guide is that you know what moves you. All you have to do it with is a brush, some chemical and canvas, and technique.”

A quote for your week. 

“Honor means something different to every House, yet there are threads common to them all. It is an old concept, going back to the Second Cycle, or late in the First. The idea grew up with commerce, and borrowing, when it became important to have a reputation for reliability in paying debts. Though expanded, and now filled with elaborate ornaments and embellishments, that original use is still at its heart. And in the way of all ideas that escape their bounds and go running off into the wild, the ornaments and embellishments have come to be seen as the central point, and no House epitomized that so fully as the Lyorn. The Jhereg and the Orca, who most fully express honor in its purest sense, never use the word except ironically.” 

― Steven Brust, Lyorn

A quote for your week. 

“Ever heard someone tell you that hard physical labor can be soothing? Can take your mind off your problems? Can leave you feeling better? I’d heard that. In my opinion, hard physical labor gives you blisters, and the only real distraction I got was trying to remember the spells I’d once known for curing them. He was much better than me, by the way; turns out there is even skill involved in digging holes. Who knew?”

 ― Steven Brust, Jhegaala

A quote for your week. 

“Captain,” said Khaavren, both by way of affirmation and correction, thus conveying the maximum amount of information in the fewest possible words; a custom of his, and one that this historian has, in fact, adopted for himself, holding efficiency of language to be a high virtue in all written works without exception.” 

― Steven Brust, Tiassa

A quote for your week. 

“I am now convinced that I have never been much in love; for had I really experienced that pure and elevating passion, I should at present detest his very name, and wish him all manner of evil. But my feelings are not only cordial towards him; they are even impartial towards her. I cannot find out that I hate her at all, or that I am in the least unwilling to think her a very good sort of girl. There can be no love in all this.”

 ― Jane Austen

A quote for your week. 

“There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.” 

― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

A quote for your week. 

“She understood him. He could not forgive her,-but he could not be unfeeling. Though condemning her for the past, and considering it with high and unjest resentment, though perfectly careless of her, and though becoming attached to another, still he could not see her suffer, without the desire of giving her relief. It was a remainder of former sentiment; it was an impuse of pure, though unacknowledged friendship; it was a proof of his own warm and amiable heart, which she could not contemplate without emotions so compounded of pleasure and pain, that she knew not which prevailed.” 

― Jane Austen, Persuasion

stupid things you did when you were younger.

No more waiting with baited breath as Your lucky numbers are said to be 92, 13, 1, 42, 72, 44, 31

A quote for your week. 

“You are too generous to trifle with me. If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged; but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever.” 

― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

A quote for your week. 

“I once had someone explain to me that we don’t have real interactions with people, we have interactions with the image of those people we carry in our heads. I don’t know. Maybe. But I figure if I stick a Great Weapon into a guy’s eye, it’s close enough to a real interaction for most purposes.”

 ― Steven Brust, Vallista

The person you are helping

There will be days when the person you are helping couldn't find their way 

out of a paper bag even if it was cut open and laying on the floor in front of them. 

You will just have to accept that they can not be helped.

With kindest regards,

The Translator

“Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn--that season of peculiar and inexhaustible influence on the mind of taste and tenderness--that season which has drawn from every poet worthy of being read some attempt at description, or some lines of feeling.”

“That's what does it-- that moment where you think you're lost, and then discover that you're not, that you've never really left. There's something that happens in that incredible tiny no-time, and that something is like the revelation of learning.” ― Steven Brust, The Sun, the Moon, & the Stars

A quote for your week. 

“There was a sergeant at a desk. I knew he was a sergeant because I recognized the marks on his uniform, and I knew it was a desk because it's always a desk. There's always someone at a desk, except when it's a table that functions as a desk. You sit behind a desk, and everyone knows you're supposed to be there, and that you're doing something that involves your brain. It's an odd, special kind of importance. I think everyone should get a desk; you can sit behind it when you feel like you don't matter.” 

― Steven Brust, Iorich

A quote for your week. 

“Paarfi undertakes a detailed examination on the virtues of brevity: It would seem, therefore, that if we allow our readers, by virtue of being in the company of the historian, to eavesdrop on this interchange, we will have, in one scene, discharged two obligations; a sacrifice, if we may say so, to the god Brevity, whom all historians, indeed, all who work with the written word, ought to worship. We cannot say too little on this subject.” 

― Steven Brust, The Phoenix Guards

A quote for your week. 

“If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences. The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient; at others, so bewildered and so weak; and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! We are, to be sure, a miracle every way; but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting do seem peculiarly past finding out.” 

― Jane Austen, Mansfield Park

A quote for your week. 

“But here’s the thing, when I’m in a place, with nothing between me and a long, long fall, one long enough that I know I wouldn’t survive, it isn’t that I’m afraid I’ll fall, it’s that I’m afraid I’ll jump. It’s not like I want to die, I don’t—if I wanted to die, I’ve had plenty of opportunities. But there’s something about being one step away from death that makes me want to take that one step. It’s an almost palpable temptation, and that scares me.” 

― Steven Brust, Lyorn

"Perhaps I shall. Yes, yes, if you please, no reference to examples in books. Men have had every advantage of us in telling their own story. Education has been theirs in so much higher a degree; the pen has been in their hands. I will not allow books to prove anything.” 

― Jane Austen, Persuasion

A quote for your week. 

“I’d forgotten to close the shutters again, and so woke with the Furnace burning painfully into my eyes. I cursed for a little while, then got up and closed them, because it is better to close the shutters than curse the light, or however that goes. I tried to sleep some more but it didn’t take.” 

― Steven Brust, Jhegaala
