Please don't take him away from this world. please don't let him die here in my arms, not after everything we've been through together, not after you've taken so many others. please, i beg you, let him live. i am willing to sacrifice anything to make this happen- i'm willing to do anything you ask. maybe you'll laugh at me for such a naive promise, but i mean it in earnest, and i don't care if it makes no sense or seems impossible. let him live. please. i can't bear this a second time. tell me there is still good in this world. tell me there is still hope for all of us.

Please Don't Take Him Away From This

More From Marie Lu

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.
Christian Hope Night
Politicians will promise some pretty ridiculous things. they will promise a chicken in every pot. they'll promise that they'll keep social security solvent. they'll promise drugs for old people. they'll promise lots of stuff. but it doesn't come near the kind of promises that religion makes. the mormons promise that if you're good while you're on earth, you get to rule over your own planet in the afterlife. now, there's an entitlement that goes a little bit beyond prescription drugs for old people.
Afterlife People Drug
"i've found out why people laugh. they laugh because it hurts so much... because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting" ... "but that's not all people laugh at." "isn't it? perhaps i don't grok all its fullness yet. but find me something that really makes you laugh sweetheart... a joke, or anything else- but something that gave you a a real belly laugh, not a smile. then we'll see if there isn't a wrongness wasn't there." he thought. "i grok when apes learn to laugh, they'll be people."
Hurt Real People
If i had been a different sort of person, maybe less impressionable, less intense, less fearful, less utterly dependent upon the perceptions of others - maybe then i would not have bought the cultural party line that thinness is the be-all and end-all of goals. maybe if my family had not been in utter chaos most of the time, maybe if my parents were a little better at dealing with their own lives maybe if i'd gotten help sooner, or if i'd gotten different help, maybe if i didn't so fiercely cherish my secret, or if i were not such a good liar, or were not quite so empty inside... maybe.
Liars Party Goal
He couldn't bear to live, but he couldn't bear to die. he couldn't bear the thought of he making love to someone else, but neither could he bear the absence of the thought. and as for the note, he couldn't bear to keep it, but he couldn't bear to destroy it either.
Making Love Bears Absence
Get rid of the guns. we had the second amendment that said you have the right to bear arms. i haven't seen the british really coming by my house looking for it. and besides, the right to bear arms is not an absolute right anyway, as new york's sullivan law proves. we talk about ourselves as a violent society, and some of that is right and some of it is claptrap. but i think if you took away the guns, and i mean really take away the guns, not what congress is doing now, you would see that violent society diminish considerably.

It's probably similar to being in new york city and having a cab driver behind you and you're driving too slow. it's not the most pleasant thing.

My favorite thing about new york is the people, because i think they’re misunderstood. i don’t think people realize how kind new york people are.
New York Thinking People
The new york times and washington post are both infested with homosexuals themselves. just about every person down there is a homosexual or lesbian.
New York Homosexual Persons
If you look at the new york times, it says x; if you look at the washington post, it says the same thing. and if you turn on any television newscast it's the same thing you already heard, that's research. and that's one of the ways it's done. authority ends up being imputed simply because of volume. i mean, all of these different news organizations reporting the exact same thing.
