Thing are going round and round my head, 或者 maybe my head is going round and round in things. -(Diana Wynne Jones)Howl's Moving Castle

Sophie, I'm dying of boredom in here, 或者 maybe just dying. -(Diana Wynne Jones)Howl's Moving Castle

"You must admit I have a right to live in a pigsty if I want." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"’I think we ought to live happily ever after,’ and she thought he meant it. Sophie knew that living happily ever after with Howl would be a good deal 更多 hair-raising than any storybook made it sound, though she was determined to try.

‘It should be hair-raising,’ added Howl.

‘And you'll exploit me,’ Sophie said.

‘And then you'll cut up all my 《金装律师》 to teach me.’”— Diana Wynne Jones

"’Go to bed, 你 fool,’ Calcifer 说 sleepily. ‘You're drunk.’

‘Who, me?’ 说 Howl. ‘I assure you, my friends, I am cone sold sober.’ He got up and stalked upstairs, feeling for the 墙 as if he thought it might escape him unless he kept in touch with it. His bedroom door did escape him." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"I am a believer in free will. If my dog chooses to hate the whole human race except myself, it must be free to do so." — Diana Wynne Jones (Castle in the Air)

"Typical! I break my neck trying to get here, and I find 你 peacefully tidying up!" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"If I give 你 a hint and tell 你 it's a hint, it will be information and I’m not allowed to do that." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Yes, 你 are nosy. You're a dreadfully nosy, horribly bossy, appallingly clean old woman. Control yourself. You're victimizing us all." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"I hope your 培根 burns." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"In the land of Ingary where such things as seven-league boots and cloaks of invisibility really exist, it is quite a misfortune to be born the eldest of the three. Everyone knows 你 are the one who will fail first, and worst, if the three of 你 set out to seek your fortunes." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Take it from me, Fate doesn't care most of the time." — Diana Wynne Jones (Castle in the Air)

"Bloody hell! I've got a hangover!"

‘No, 你 hit 你 head on the floor’

‘I can't stay. I've got to rescue that fool Sophie.’

‘I’m right here.’— Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"I make that four 马 and ten men just to get rid of one old woman. What did 你 do to the King?" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"You've no right to walk into people's castles and take their guitars." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"That's why I 爱情 spiders. 'If at first 你 don't succeed, try, try again’." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Nobody gets praised for the right reasons." — Diana Wynne Jones (Castle in the Air)

"Nobody can buy a hat without gossiping." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"She was remorseless, but she lacked method." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"What a strange family 你 are! Is your name Lettie too?" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Sophie did not care to think how Howl might react if Fanny woke him 由 stabbing him with her parasol." — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"'She 说 'Over my dead body!' so I took her at her word.' -the Witch of the Waste" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Meanwhile a certain amount of moaning and groaning was coming from upstairs. Sophie kept muttering to the dog and ignored it. A loud, hollow coughing followed, dying away into 更多 moaning. Crashing sneezes followed the coughing, each one rattling the window and all the doors. Sophie found those harder to ignore, but she managed. Poot-pooooot! went a blown nose, a 巴松管 in a tunnel. The coughing started again, mingled with moans. Sneezes mixed with the moans and the coughs, and the sounds rose to a crescendo in which Howl seemed to be managing to cough, groan, blow his nose, sneeze, and wail gently all at the same time. The doors rattled, the beams in the ceiling shook, and one of Calcifer’s logs rolled off onto the hearth.

‘All right, all right, I get the message!’ Sophie said, dumping the log back into the grate. ‘It’ll be green slime next.’" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"All she heard 下一个 of the strange conversation behind the sofa was Mrs. Pendragon saying something about sending Twinkle (or was his name Howl?) to 床, 床上 without 晚餐, 晚饭 and Twinkle daring her to 'jutht TRY it." — Diana Wynne Jones (House of Many Ways)

"Christopher discovered that 你 dealt with obnoxious masters and most older boys the way 你 dealt with governesses: 你 quite politely told them the truth in the way they wanted to hear it, so that they thought they had won and left 你 in peace." — Diana Wynne Jones (The Lives of Christopher Chant)

"By now it was clear that Howl was in a mood to produce green slime any second. Sophie hurriedly put her sewing away.

‘I'll make some hot buttered toast,’ she said.

‘Is that all 你 can do in the face of tragedy??’ Howl asked. ‘Make toast!’" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"’I feel ill,’ Howl announced. ‘I'm going to bed, where I may die.’" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"’Wizard Howl,’ 说 Wizard Suliman. ‘I must apologize for trying to bite 你 so often. In the normal way, I wouldn't dream of setting teeth in a fellow countryman.’" — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

"Pray use both 猫 as sponges if it pleases you, infatuated infantryman." — Diana Wynne Jones (Castle in the Air)

"Sophie 说 a bad word. In the dim light she had stubbed her toe on one of the many dusty bricks piled around the place.

‘Naughty-naughty’ Twinkle said.

'Oh shut up!’ Sophie said, standing on one leg to hold her toe. 'Why don't 你 grow up?'" — Diana Wynne Jones (House of Many Ways)

“’Tell me of this wizard Howl of yours.’

Sophie’s teeth chattered, but she 说 proudly, ‘He’s the best wizard in Ingary 或者 anywhere else. If he’d only had time, he would have defeated that djinn. And he’s sly and selfish and vain as a peacock, and 你 can’t pin him down to anything.’

‘Indeed?’ asked Abdullah. ‘Strange that 你 should speak so proudly of such a 列表 of vices, most loving of ladies.’

‘What do 你 mean, vices?’ Sophie asked angrily. ‘I was just describing Howl.’” — Diana Wynne Jones (Castle in the Air)

“’You can clean the webs out if 你 want to, but don’t kill the spiders’ 说 Howl.

‘But they’ll just make 更多 webs!’ Sophie exclaimed.

‘Exactly.’ Howl grinned.” — Diana Wynne Jones (Howl's Moving Castle)

We all have our fandoms.
We all have those certain 图书 we can’t stop talking about, those 电影院 and TV shows we can’t stop re-watching, those video games we can’t stop re-playing, and those 音乐剧 that whenever the tour comes to town, we watch them again and again. We have all found escape into either an adventure 或者 experience, whether it be in our modern-day world 或者 a completely different place and time. Thanks to writers and directors, there are conflicts that get our hearts racing and 更多 often than not, there are universal truths where we learn 更多 about ourselves, others,...

Alan Weisman
2007-2008
St. Martin’s Press

– A fascinating eco-thriller … Gripping

The simple but irresistible premise of Alan Weisman's The World Without Us - what would happen to the planet if human beings simply disappeared - lit up imaginations even as it ignited controversy around the world.

Weisman's "thought experiment" examines what would happen in both the immediate and distant future to the land, the animals, the oceans, our cities, our art, and all manner of things we take for granted if we were no longer here. Would the seas again teem with fish? Would our concrete jungles crumble...

Daniel J. Levitin, 2006, 320 pages

Why human beings make and enjoy 音乐 is, in Levitin’s telling, a delicious story. In this unprecedented meeting of art and science, rocker-turned-neuroscientist Daniel J. Levitin explores the connection between 音乐 – its performances, its composition, how we listen to it, why we enjoy it – and the human brain.

Taking on prominent thinkers who argue that 音乐 is nothing 更多 than an evolutionary accident, Levitin argues that 音乐 is fundamental to our species, perhaps even 更多 so than language. ‘This Is Your Brain On Music’ is an ear-opening,...

Daniel Goleman, 2006, 334 pages

Goleman in his groundbreaking book reveals that neural linkages between humans influence the brain and the body. These invisible bridges give us the ability to change people's moods, emotions, and health - as these people can do to us. Relationships not only shape emotional states and general psychological experience, but also the very physiological matter that makes our body. Our interactions with people influences our immune system, circulation, hormones, and breathing for example.

Social Intelligence expands from the one-person psychology within an individual...
