“Wow. Listen. Just kiss both kinds of face. Maybe you'll enjoy them equally. That's fine. Let love rule. It's the nineties. Get used to it.”

“Jimmy (to Allison):We'll be together in our bear's cave, and our squirrel's drey, and we'll live on honey, and nuts-lots and lots of nuts. And we'll sing songs about ourselves-about warm trees and snug caves, and lying in the sun. And you'll keep those big eyes on my fur, and help me keep my claws in order, because I'm a bit of a soppy, scruffy sort of a bear. And I'll see that you keep that sleek, bushy tail glistening as it should, because you're a very beautiful squirre, but you're none too bright either, so we've got to be careful. There are cruel steel traps lying about everywhere, just waiting for rather mad, slightly satanic, and very timid little animals.” ― John Osborne, Look Back in Anger
“So this is what love is.It's like bein' tied to a big, mad train.” ― John Allison, The Case of the Simple Soul
“So you've been gone a couple days,' Allison said. 'Hmm, what'd you miss... A celebrity did drugs. Politicians disagreed. A different celebrity wore a bikini that revealed a bodily imperfection. A team won a sporting event, but another team lost.” ― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
“Go! And remember! Zebra is fine creature to admire, but you do not have to ride it.” ― John Allison, The Case of the Team Spirit
“In dividing the light, things are seen. And we notice ourselves.” ― John Allison
“It is almost as thoughsomething else is breathingquite close by, invisibly.The mystery of the names…Albizzia. Gleditsia.Aucuba japonica. AndI am listening, seeing. Seeing,like someone twice alive.” ― John Allison
“Arrgh, my dad's here to pick me up. How can he be so insensitive to intrigue?” ― John Allison, Giant Days, Vol. 5
“You see us as you want to see us - in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain...Andrew Clark: ...and an athlete...Allison Reynolds: ...and a basket case...Claire Standish: ...a princess...John Bender: ...and a criminal...Brian Johnson: Does that answer your question? Sincerely yours, the Breakfast Club.” ― John Hughes The Breakfast Club Script
“out exactly what happened.” Nic tried to hide her pride at the next bit of news. “I’ve been appointed the case agent.” She had lobbied hard for it, pointing out to John Drood, the special agent in charge, that Jim Fate had reached out to her and Allison just before he was killed.” ― Lis Wiehl, Hand of Fate
“Allison made it to the bottom of the polished oak staircase before she had to sit on the last step to find a familiar point of reference. Saturated, she thought, that is a great word. Saturated with hope, love, sadness and happiness all at once. She stared down at her pink toes, curling them against the wood floors she and John had refinished so long ago, making sure she was conscious and alive.” ― J.P. Peranteau, Black Hole
“This is. The apotheosis. Of how she makes me feel.” ― John Allison, Giant Days #6
“Mr Bough has 'surprise picnic' written all over him.” ― John Allison, The Case of the Team Spirit

“The bare tree branches on the maples outside her office window seemed to count to her as they swayed. One, two, three hundred and sixty five days, she thought. Something was waiting on the edges of her life. She opened her desk drawer hesitantly. John’s face gradually appeared in a photo she had brought in that day. BLING Allison shut the drawer with a slam and looked up at her screen. A chat box window had popped up.” ― J.P. Peranteau, Black Hole
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust. —JOHN WEBSTER Grant” ― Allison Brennan, Carnal Sin
“When temptation comes,you've got to stay strong. Go forward to right, not backwards to wrong. Search out the righteous. The Christian others. The godly sisters. The godly brothers. Those strong in the word. Who know how to pray. Who speak to mountains, and make them obey. Those strong in Jesus. JOHN 15:7.Abiding in Him, our Lord in Heaven.These are the brethrenyou need by your sidewhen the storms of lifeare turning the tide.These are the brethren you need with you whenthe battles of life get harder to win.I praise God for you,the true and upright. You who've encouragedmy walk in the light.” ― Calvin W. Allison, Shadows Over February
“Christ alive. Satan is a very beefy boy.” ― John Allison, Steeple
