“To read" actually comes from the Latin reri "to calculate, to think" which is not only the progenitor of "read" but of "reason" as well, both of which hail from the Greek arariskein "to fit." Aside from giving us "reason," arariskein also gives us an unlikely sibling, Latin arma meaning "weapons." It seems that "to fit" the world or to make sense of it requires either reason or arms.”
― Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves

“Do shut your mouth--you'll catch flies sitting there like that.”
― Jonathan L. Howard, The Detective

“Scars are the paler pain of survival received unwillingly and displayed in the language of injury.”
