Humanity does not suffer from the disease of wrong beliefs but humanity suffers from the contagious nature of the lack of belief.

That's what she would have said if she and Sally had been talking. I wish I deserved him, she would have whispered into her sister's ear. ↗

Only those few who are able to surpass their fear of death completely can fully experience the highest forms of life; not the mundane life of the mortal, but the godly life of the resurrected. ↗

You can't wish for more wishes or for vague generalities like happiness that are impossible to grant. Your wish has to be something specific enough that I can use my wand to make it happen. Oh, and recently there's been a ban on inserting yourself into the Twilight series. The Cullens are tired of different teenage girls pinging into their story every time they turn around. ↗
