When Holly Short had opened the door of her makeshift basement cell, she had found her helmet bouncing on the spot in front of her with a 3-D image of Foaly's face projected onto it. That is really creepy, ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
She can't afford to commit more troops,' Holly whispered. 'The gate is her priority, and she needs to have as many Berserkers watching her back as possible. We are secondary at this point.'
'That will be her undoing,' Artemis gasped, already suffering under the weight of the flak jacket. 'Artemis Fowl will never be secondary.'
'I thought you were Artemis Fowl the Second?' said Holly. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
The boy who kidnapped Holly Short all those years ago would never have entertained the notion of sacrificing himself. But he was no longer that boy. His parents were restored to him, and he had brothers. And dear friends. Something else Artemis had never anticipated. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
A CD. How quaint. We have these in museums. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
HOLLY: Are you suggesting I occasionally stray from the rule book?
FOALY: No. I'm suggesting you do not own a copy of the rule book, and if you do, you have certainly never opened it. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
It looks like you've found an intellectual equal, Mulch," said Holly. "It's a pity he isn't a girl; then you could marry him."
Mulch imitated shock. "Romance outside your species. Now THAT's disgusting. What kind of weirdo would kiss someone when they weren't even part of the same species? ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
This might hurt a little is universal code for this will definitely hurt a lot ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
Maybe I owe you something too, human," she said, drawing her pistol. Butler almost reacted, but decided to give Holly the benefit of the doubt.

Captain Short plucked a gold coin from her belt, flicking it fifty feet into the moonlit sky. With one fluid movement, she brought her weapon up and loosed a single blast. The coin rose another fifty feet, then spun earthward. Artemis somehow managed to snatch it from the air. The first cool movement of his young life.

"Nice shot," he said. The previously solid disk now had a tiny hole in the center.

Holly held out her hand, revealing the still raw scar on her finger. "If it wasn't for you, I would have missed altogether. No mech-digit can replicate that kind of accuracy. So, thank you too, I suppose."

Artemis held out the coin.

"No," said Holly. "You keep it, to remind you."

"To remind me?"

Holly stared at him frankly. "To remind you that deep beneath the layers of deviousness, you have a spark of decency. Perhaps you could blow on that spark occasionally."

Artemis closed his fingers around the coin. It was warm against his palm.

"Yes, perhaps. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
Ah, my princess. Noble steed. How does the morning find you both? ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
Friendship isn't a science mudboy. Just do what you think is right. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
I'm not threatening you. I'm just informing you of police procedure. If you continue to obstruct me, I remove the obstruction, in this case you, and proceed to the next command. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
She strode across the McGraney boundary without a backward glance, legs cutting twin swatches in the green-black grass. Dawn sunlight simmered on the tip of each blade, and Holly's passage set a surging ripple of light flashing across the meadow.
Extraordinary, thought Artemis. What have I lost? ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
Anybody see you come in here?"
Holly thought about it.
"The FBI, CIA, NSA, DEA, M16. Oh, and the EIB."
Foaly frowned. "EIB?"
"Everyone in the building. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
I can't imagine what they're planning. But I can tell you two things. We won't like it, and it won't be legal. ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
Perhaps we can win, he thought. But there will be no happy ending ~ Eoin Colfer
Holly Short quotes by Eoin Colfer
The trap into which all writers have, will, or should fall into, of writing The Great American Watchamacallit, is such an uncluttered and inviting one that from time to time I'm sure even the greatest have to pull themselves up short by the Shift key to remind themselves that it is story first that they should write. ~ Harlan Ellison
Holly Short quotes by Harlan Ellison
We all knew that we could grieve only for a short while in order to continue staying alive. ~ Ishmael Beah
Holly Short quotes by Ishmael Beah
Let family worship be short, savory, simple, plain, tender, heavenly. ~ Richard Cecil
Holly Short quotes by Richard Cecil
He went up to his room and sat down at the desk to write the hardest note he'd ever written in his life. He tore up four attempts before he was happy with what he'd written. It was short and to the point.

"You mean everything to me."

I ~ Michelle Frost
Holly Short quotes by Michelle Frost
Crimestop means the faculty of stopping short, as though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. It includes the power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, of misunderstanding the simplest arguments if they are inimical to Ingsoc, and of being bored or repelled by any train of thought which is capable of leading in a heretical direction. Crimestop, in short, means protective stupidity. ~ George Orwell
Holly Short quotes by George Orwell
I Google myself pretty often. I usually find something about All Time Low or my break-up with Holly [Madison]. ~ Jack Barakat
Holly Short quotes by Jack Barakat
I'm pretty goofy and I make a lot of dumb jokes - life is too short to be serious, so I guess that's how I flirt. To be honest, I think I'm too shy and reserved to be a proper old fashioned flirt. ~ Cory Monteith
Holly Short quotes by Cory Monteith
Integrity and firmness is all I can promise; these, be the voyage long or short, never shall forsake me though I be deserted by all men. For of the consolations which are to be derived from these (under any circumstances) the world cannot deprive me. ~ George Washington
Holly Short quotes by George Washington
In a few short years you might have to become a scuba diver and go hundreds of feet underwater - It will be the last refuge of pure aura and power on our planet, the oceans' depths. ~ Frederick Lenz
Holly Short quotes by Frederick Lenz
I discovered that my obsession for having each thing in the right place, each subject at the right time, each word in the right style, was not the well-deserved reward of an ordered mind but just the opposite: a complete system of pretense invented by me to hide the disorder of my nature. I discovered that I am not disciplined out of virtue but as a reaction to my negligence, that I appear generous in order to conceal my meanness, that I pass myself off as prudent because I am evil-minded, that I am conciliatory in order not to succumb to my repressed rage, that I am punctual only to hide how little I care about other people's time. I learned, in short, that love is not a condition of the spirit but a sign of the zodiac. ~ Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Holly Short quotes by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The story of a life can be as long or as short as the teller wishes. Whether the life is tragic or enlightened, the classic gravestone inscription marking simply the dates of birth and death has, in its brevity, much to recommend it. ~ Michel Houellebecq
Holly Short quotes by Michel Houellebecq
If you distill the essence of everything, what life is about, every single one of us is given a short moment in time on this planet, and we all have one universal need and desire, and that is to be loved and to love. ~ Gavin Newsom
Holly Short quotes by Gavin Newsom
You can't do good work on a short-term contract. You need to be engaged over a period of time. ~ Yves Behar
Holly Short quotes by Yves Behar
When he looks back at me, his eyes travel around my face the way fingers dart through the bottom of a drawer, searching for batteries in a blackout. ~ Holly Schindler
Holly Short quotes by Holly Schindler
Temperance, in the nobler sense, does not mean a subdued and imperfect energy; it does not mean a stopping short in any good thing, as in love and in faith; but it means the power which governs the most intense energy, and prevents its acting in way but as it ought. ~ John Ruskin
Holly Short quotes by John Ruskin
The long and short of it is, we need more rigor in all kinds of programs. ~ Margaret Spellings
Holly Short quotes by Margaret Spellings
After about a minute, I received a text back.
Beck: I know
A few seconds later, a smiley face came through, and I had to laugh. A week or so ago, I'd told him that his texts were always so short and blunt.
"Couldn't you add a smiley face or something?" I'd asked.
He actually listened! A smug sense of victory swirled through me. He could be so stubborn about things that I could hardly believe it, even as the emoticon smiled up at me. ~ Cindi Madsen
Holly Short quotes by Cindi Madsen
Aurelie: "What do you think, Holly, is C gay?"
Holly: "Aurelie, my dear Aurelie, that is not and will never be an easy question, and I am afraid I do not have an answer for you. That is something that C has to answer himself, you know?
Aurelie: "No, I know, but he never will, you know! ~ Elba Barnes
Holly Short quotes by Elba Barnes
Short of spending $10,000, there is nothing you can do to your head to hide the fact that you're going bald. ~ Jennifer Coolidge
Holly Short quotes by Jennifer Coolidge
How short was the road from that decision to this moment? The question ached like a bruise. ~ Jane Harper
Holly Short quotes by Jane Harper
The downside of letting everyone know you're going to be all alone so they can attack you is that everyone knows you'll be all alone so they can attack you. ~ Holly Black
Holly Short quotes by Holly Black
I spit upon the dancers painted by Degas. I spit upon their short bodies, their stiff stays, their toes whereupon they spin like peg-tops, above all upon that chambermaid face. They might have looked timeless, Remeses the Great, but not the chambermaid, that old maid history. I spit! I spit! I spit! ~ W.B.Yeats
Holly Short quotes by W.B.Yeats
Sometimes books feel like the only thing that keep her sane. Actually, she knows that they're the only reason she's still even vaguely okay right now. That's what she clings to: reading great books and seeing great films and, for as long as she's immersed in them, being able to forget, if only for a short time, about the reality of her life. ~ Steph Bowe
Holly Short quotes by Steph Bowe
In short, everything about his life was different for him at the bottom of that well. ~ Raymond Carver
Holly Short quotes by Raymond Carver
You can change the exterior in a fairly short period of time, but the heart takes a whole lot longer. ~ Suzanne Supplee
Holly Short quotes by Suzanne Supplee
The solutions put forth by imperialism are the quintessence of simplicity ... When they speak of the problems of population and birth, they are in no way moved by concepts related to the interests of the family or of society ... Just when science and technology are making incredible advances in all fields, they resort to technology to suppress revolutions and ask the help of science to prevent population growth. In short, the peoples are not to make revolutions, and women are not to give birth. This sums up the philosophy of imperialism. ~ Fidel Castro
Holly Short quotes by Fidel Castro
Why, then, do depression and unhappiness outlast the situations that trigger them? Or why, sometimes, does a sense of malaise and dis-­satisfaction go on and on? The short answer is that these emotions per­sist because we have emotional reactions to our own emotions that ac­tually keep them going. ~ J. Mark G. Williams
Holly Short quotes by J. Mark G. Williams
Writing is immensely difficult. The short forms especially. ~ E.L. Doctorow
Holly Short quotes by E.L. Doctorow
We are our brother's and sister's keepers; life is short, all we can do is help as many people as we can. ~ Dr. Kevin T Coughlin
Holly Short quotes by Dr. Kevin T Coughlin
You are the indispensable agent of change. You should not be daunted by the magnitude of the task before you. Your contribution can inspire others, embolden others who are timid, to stand up for the truth in the midst of a welter of distortion, propaganda, and deceit; stand up for human rights where these are being violated with impunity; stand up for justice, freedom, and love where they are trampled underfoot by injustice, oppression, hatred, and harsh cruelty; stand up for human dignity and decency at times when these are in desperately short supply. God calls on us to be his partners to work for a new kind of society where people count; where people matter more than things, more than possessions; where human life is not just respected but positively revered; where people will be secure and not suffer from the ~ Desmond Tutu
Holly Short quotes by Desmond Tutu
I just feel kind of out of place on Easter. I feel kind of useless because everybody else has kids and I don't and I'm just standing there with nothing to do. ~ Holly Madison
Holly Short quotes by Holly Madison
Pessimism, feelings of worthlessness and lack of entitlement, inability to derive satisfaction from pleasure, a tormenting awareness of the world's general crappiness: for Katz's Jewish paternal forebears, who'd been driven from shtetl to shtetl by implacable anti-Semites, as for the old Angles and Saxons on his mother's side, who'd labored to grow rye and barley in the poor soils and short summers of northern Europe, feeling bad all the time and expecting the worst had been natural ways of equilibriating themselves with the lousiness of their circumstances. Few things gratified depressives, after all, more than really bad news. This obviously wasn't an optimal way to live, but it had its evolutionary advantages. Depressives in grim situations handed down their genes, however despairingly, while the self-improvers converted to Christianity or moved away to sunnier locales. ~ Jonathan Franzen
Holly Short quotes by Jonathan Franzen
Psychologists should bethink themselves before putting down the instinct of self-preservation as the cardinal instinct of an organic being. A living thing seeks above all to DISCHARGE its strength - life itself is WILL TO POWER; self-preservation is only one of the indirect and most frequent RESULTS thereof. In short, here, as everywhere else, let us beware of SUPERFLUOUS teleological principles! - one of which is the instinct of self-preservation (we owe it to Spinoza's inconsistency). ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Holly Short quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Self-pity is not a pleasant emotion and is a fruitless one as well, for its point of no return is an onset of black despair in very short order. ~ Moss Hart
Holly Short quotes by Moss Hart
She lay on her back with arms extended over her head and legs slightly spread. Cuchillo zip-tied her slender wrists and ankles to each corner of the long metal exam table and stuffed a washrag in her mouth to prevent her from crying out… Only her rapidly-moving eyes betrayed her distress, they darted from her captors to the wiry man tied to the wall…The interrogator stood close to the table, carelessly wielding a lovingly sharpened straight razor and licking his lips, while he ogled the helpless girl. Tuco felt his stomach turn when Cuchillo ran his dirty hand up the inside of her smooth leg and under the hem of her short dress. ~ Anson Scott
