The rarest Pepe of the all.

I love the French saying "C'est la vie".

Shuts down a lot of people nagging.

Thats a good one, also along the lines "In our dogs eyes we are the immortal elves."

"Be like squirrel, girl, be like squirrel."

The Expanse has so many memorable quotes.

• "You're not that guy. I am that GUY."
  - Amos
• "What is it you're think you're doing?" "WHATEVER I GOD DAMN LIKE."
  - Avaserala answering to the council
• "You look like shit." "You look amazing."
  - Avaserala and Amos on Luna
• "I'm just gonna take my pet nuke for a walk."
  - Miller on Ceres Station

"I'm a leaf in the wind."

Said by Wash the pilot in the movie Serenity. I tend to whisper that to myself when things aren't going my way and I need a reminder to just go with the flow.

Another one came to mind.

"Because he's my man."

From the series Legion on FX. The main female lead Sydney wanted to safe her boyfriend and others doubted her on her reasoning, since her boyfriend turned out to be a shady guy. When questioned "Why?" She gave that answer. I've never heard a female character be this positively possessive over her love interest before. Usually its the guy that saves the girl.

The only correct answer.

With women, bathroom talk. With the boys we always talk about shit and piss and crack each other up. But mention anything related to that around a girl, she'll look at you as if you killed her dog.

Turns out I've been celebrating World Peace every day for the past 10 years. Yesterday I've actually even celebrated twice, but don't let my dog know 😉

Because OP knows what's good.

The reason is simple, in the time of motion picture, videogames, and music, why would somebody decide to stare at bland black text on white paper for 3 hours a day?

Reading is by far the least approachable, most time consuming and least rewarding for of self entertainment. Books where the most popular because their distribution was the easiest and the cheapest. Now distribution of digital media including movies, music and videogames has become trivial.

Books are also the easiest to create (in relative terms), meaning for every GOOD book there are 1000s of really bad ones, and it's not readily apparent which one is which. Where as for every really good movie there are many only 10 mediocre ones.

What the article describes as "better mental health" regarding to children reading, is usually a product of the abstraction that book inherently posses. Since all you can go off when reading a novel is your own imagination and maybe some official artwork, books have the least reinforcement of social standards.

Text is a very reliable way to relais information, but when it comes to telling a story, the more senses you can captivate the more alive a story will feel. Books don't appeal to your eyes and ears but movies do.
