Much that is natural, to the will must yield.

Men manufacture both machine and soul,
And use what they imperfectly control
To dare a future from the taken routes.
The medical profession (is) a conspiracy to hide its own shortcomings. No doubt the same may be said of all professions.

People who pigeonhole us for our queerness are not people I’m interested in knowing. They’re so boring. How dare you be so boring? Grow up. Get some Ray-Bans.

Often, when a girl has a crush on a boy, her friend will dare her to speak to him or ask for a pencil, or better yet, let him know that she has a crush.

The mere existence of ‘Buffy’ proves the declinists wrong about one thing: Hollywood commercialism can produce great art. Complex and evolving characters. Playful language.

Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare.

Frodo drew himself up, and again Sam was startled by his words and his stern voice. ‘On the Precious? How dare you?’ he said. ‘Think! Would you commit your promise to that, Smeagol? It will hold you. But it is more treacherous than you are. It may twist your words. Beware!
