This is from a great book I am reading by Christopher Moore called A Dirty Job. This isn't really a line you can use sometime, I just thought it sounded cool when I read it.

Moore is really good with dialouge and character interaction.

This is from a great short story written by Cory Doctorow called 'When Sys Admins Ruled the Earth'. Great part is, he read it and sent it out as podcast for free. See for yourself at craphound.com.

Are you awary that rushing toward a goal is a sublimated deathwish? It's no coincedence we call them 'deadlines.'

This is from a book by Tom Robbins called "Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas". He is very definetly one of my favorite authors. He can do things with the english language that are amazing. Go out and buy one of his books today. When you read one of his books I can almost garuntee you will laugh and you will think.

I needed something to take my mind off my mind.

Another line from Home Land by Sam Lipsyte.

All I can say is "been there".

Each of us walks to the beat of a different drummer. It's just that some of these drummers suck.

This line is from Anne Lamott's book, Bird by Bird. I read about it at 43folders.com. I haven't read Anne's book, but I will just because this guy sounded so excited by it.

"She desevered to be dropped down a smooth hole in the ground and left there."
