Anya Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 White Nights by Fyodor something I can't pronounce “You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit.”
Frostina Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 White Nights by Fyodor something I can't pronounce “You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit.” Dostoevsky. and.. Oscar Wilde: 'Picture of Dorian Gray' here: Most people don't live; they just race.
Frostina Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Everybody can just be googling shit lol. did you do that?? i was wondering! but.. as it happens... i do read.. quite a lot, and you picked an easy one!
Anya Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Of course I did. You think I ever heard of this Fyodor something guy before? And yeah mine was easy. I'm not a fan of too many classics...but "The Picture of Dorian Grey" was beautifully written.
Anya Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) That said..."Daddy Long Legs" by Jean Webster? “Together, they would watch everything that was so carefully planned collapse, and they would smile at the beauty of destruction.” Beautiful book. Edited March 13, 2012 by Anya
comicfan Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Who keeps letting Frosty into the classics section? Really now we are doing Russian? I suppose if you are doing Dostoevsky it could be worse. White Nights. At least it wasn't Crime and Punishment. Peter, a little boy who would someday be King, had dozens of toys—no, if I am to tell you the truth, he had thousands of toys. He had hundreds of lead soldiers with which he fought great battles, and dozens of play horses. He had games and balls and marbles. He had stilts that made him five feet high. He had a magical spring-stick on which he could bounce, and all the drawing paper he wanted, in a time when paper was extremely hard to make and only wealthy people could afford to have it. Do you have any idea how long it took me to get that thing typed and then it kept not posting and you guys are googling things. I had to go get the damn book off my shelf and flip till I found it. I knew I remembered the story but couldn't remember the friggin title. Edited March 13, 2012 by comicfan

White Nights. At least it wasn't Crime and Punishment. I thought you'd say at least it isnt 'Notes from the underground' and I pass on Wayne's. i have NO clue whatsoever. BUT i do want to read it!
LJH Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 “Together, they would watch everything that was so carefully planned collapse, and they would smile at the beauty of destruction.” I have this one in my book shop hehehehehe Markus Zusak The Book Thief Ok now my turn at last .... sigh "Ditto" Which movie?
Mark92 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Ghost cos Patrick whats his face couldnt say I love you And I didnt google that just watched it so many times. If we are moving to classical movies what about a final line? He used to be a big shot?
sat8997 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) The Roaring Twenties - James Cagney This one's been in my signature for months. I will not let my own personal tragedies interfere with my ability to do good hair. ETA - movie Edited March 13, 2012 by sat8997
sat8997 Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 It's not - it's set in the South and has a cast of six well known women.
Frostina Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 It's not - it's set in the South and has a cast of six well known women. *Grins* That hint helped.. a LOT! Steel Magnolias Wayne's Quote is still unanswered and is bothering me! pls, someone...
