#4. I have a trainer," she confirmed while searching for an escape route.
Standing closer to this man is like being stuck in an elevator, she decided. You'd bargain with God to get free.
"But not just any trainer. Not only does this woman tackle a stallion no one else can seem to tame but she resurrects the dead, n'est-ce pas? You have done wonders to stir McCloud's blood again, or so I have heard."
A.J.'s mouth dropped open at the insinuation. "What are you talking about?"
"Surely you jest. The news is all around." He gesticulated with a limp wrist. "Although I must say, you are faithless to leave your family in favor of a man who is not your husband. No matter how good you find his services."
Her vision narrowed on the man's jugular. "Why, you little - "
Devlin appeared at her side. "A.J.! Time to go pace off the course."
"Ah," Philippe said grandly. "And here is your good teacher, the man you gave up so much for. Myself, I could not imagine leaving my family for someone else's stable, but I am French and we are known for our loyalty. Then again, I also don't need the particular kind of instruction this McCloud offers."
A.J. could sense her face tuning brick red and felt like a boxer winding up for a punch.
"Come on," Devlin said.
"Yes, run along, you two. I imagine there is much you must do to each other."
That did it. She lost it.
"Why, you tar-mouthed gossip hound - "
She was itching to go further but Devlin pu #Quote by J.R. Ward

#5. Indeed, in the majority of cases the dying person has already lost consciousness. Death had been dissected, cut to bits by a series of little steps, which finally makes it impossible to know which step was the real death, the one in which consciousness was lost, or the one in which breathing stopped. All these little silent deaths have replaced and erased the great dramatic act of death, and no one any longer has the strength or patience to wait over a period of weeks for a moment which has lost a part of its meaning. #Quote by Philippe Aries

#6. Sometimes we are particularly worried about things that are not going well around us, in our community, our family, or our church circle. We are tempted to get discouraged and give up. That is when we have to tell ourselves: whatever happens, whatever mistakes and faults are committed by this person or that, it robs us of exactly nothing. Even though we lived among people who were committing mortal sins from morning till night, that could not prevent us from loving God and serving our neighbor, or deprive us of any spiritual gift, or stop us from tending toward the fullness of love. The world could collapse around us, but it wouldn't rob us of the possibility of praying, placing all our trust in God, and loving. #Quote by Jacques Philippe

Sometimes I will write a role for them because I want to work with them because they're so good. #Quote by Philippe Falardeau

#22. Whenever people talk in the abstract about the pros and cons of immigration, one should not forget that immigrants are individual human beings whose lives happen not to fit neatly within national borders – and that like all human beings, they are all different.

#34. Why did I, like thousands of others, have to carry a cross I hadn't chosen, a cross which was not made for my shoulders and which didn't concern me? Who decided to come rummaging around in my obscure existence, invade my gray anonymity, my meager tranquility, and bowl me like a little ball in a great game of skittles? God? Well, in that case, if He exists, if He really exists, let Him hide His face. Let Him put His two hands on His head, and let Him bow down.
