"M. Bonancieux: Well, I don't want to be sent to the Bastille, me, because it's got very deep dungeons and terrible instruments of torture, operated by very unsympathetic men! And they snip very important parts off people!"

"Buckingham: If anyone should try to follow us, would you be so good as to kill him? Thank you."

"Rochefort: [to d'Artagnan] If you were a gentleman, I would speak to you. I was speaking at you."

"[Of Porthos' and Aramis' tennis-playing skills] I'd rather wager on a Huguenot for the Papacy than gamble on you two!"

"Let me tell you something about this...inconvenient gentleman of yours. His name is Rochefort. He's the Cardinal's living blade, and he is deadly. And, as for this Rochefort, if you see him walking on the other side of the road one day, don't bother to cross it, that's all."

"You'll find, young man, the future looks rosier through the bottom of a glass."

"A gallop, a skirmish, a thrust or two, what would you? It's a day's work!"

"I've never washed the legs of a woman—but I have done a horse. With a horse, you...start at the top."

"[after having been challenged to duels by Athos, Porthos and Aramis] If I'm going to be killed, at least it will be by a musketeer!"

"Forgive me, madam, but I must kill your friend."

"[as the police escort him away from the pool] I was only trying to cool off!"

"In his wildest dreams Larry would never have imagined he'd once again be in this position, where precious minutes count. Tonight he could save a life. He knew Ronnie had done some bad things in the past, but so had Larry. You couldn't change the past. But the future could be a different story. And it had to start somewhere."

"Lately Slutty Kay had become a problem. He thought about her far too often, and spent hours studying the thousands of photographs available to him. Some of Kay's practices struck him as bizarre, even off-putting. She had a thing about kitchen utensils, spatulas, and dressing up like a little girl and playing with balloons. But who was Richard to judge?"

"Brad showered quickly, sensing a rare opportunity to have sex with his wife."

"It was then while watching Brad kneel down at his son's feet that Sarah found herself gripped by an unexpected pang of sadness. "Don't go," she thought. "Don't leave me here with the others.""

"Sarah was shocked by how Brad delivered this confession, with no apparent sense of being in the least bit embarrassed by his failure. Most men weren't like this. Her husband Richard certainly wasn't. She wondered if Brad was always this forthcoming. If anything, he seemed a little lonely, all too ready to open his heart at the slightest sign of interest, like a lot of young mothers she knew."

"The jester's cap was something that truly disturbed Brad. All day long the boy ate, played and napped in it. But the moment his mother stepped in the house he had no more use for it. As if the entire day up to that point had been a pointless and somewhat useless charade."

"Sarah didn't really know why they even bothered coming here, except that she'd probably go crazy trapped in the house all day with this unknowable little person."

"Smiling politely to mask a familiar feeling of desperation Sarah reminded herself to think like an anthropologist. She was a researcher studying the behavior of typical suburban women."

"Have you thought of any names? I was thinking if it's a boy then we could name him Johnny, and if it's a girl we could still name it Johnny just spell it J-O-N-N-I with an I!"

"All I really want is for Johnny to love me like he did in High School."

"I wounder what she looks like. I bet she's skinny. She probably is. She's skinnner'n me and prettier too. Now I'll hate her. Oh I can't wait!"

"God loves you just the way you are. But He loves too much to let you stay that way."
