en . . . he would have passed a pleasant life of it, in despite of the Devil and all his works, if his path had not been crossed by a being that causes more perplexity to mortal man than ghosts, goblins, and the whole race of witches put together, and that was--a woman.
  Washington Irving

en They still believe in God, the family, angels, witches, goblins, logic, clarity, punctuation, and other obsolete stuff.
  Isaac Bashevis Singer

en Last year was such a success. We are looking forward to seeing all the ghosts and goblins again this year.

en He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

en WITCH, n. (1) Any ugly and repulsive old woman, in a wicked league with the devil. (2) A beautiful and attractive young woman, in wickedness a league beyond the devil.
  Ambrose Bierce

en Children don't read to find their identity, to free themselves from guilt, to quench the thirst for rebellion or to get rid of alienation. They have no use for psychology.... They still believe in God, the family, angels, devils, witches, goblins, logic, clarity, punctuation, and other such obsolete stuff.... When a book is boring, they yawn openly. They don't expect their writer to redeem humanity, but leave to adults such childish illusions.
  Isaac Bashevis Singer

en Instead of being larger than life, they are life-size. They're mortal people. Superhuman on their bikes, but mortal.

en There are ghosts that will follow you your whole life. I think I've met a few of those ghosts head-on.

en A wicked mortal is not the idea of God. He is little else than the expression of error. To suppose that sin, lust, hatred, envy, hypocrisy, revenge, have life abiding in them, is a terrible mistake. Life and Life's idea, Truth and Truth's idea, never make men sick, sinful, or mortal.
  Mary Baker Eddy

en Servant Nanak has crossed over on the path, the treacherous path.
  Guru Nanak

en At the bottom no one in life can help anyone else in life; this one experiences over and over in every conflict and every perplexity: that one is alone. That isn't as bad as it may first appear; and again it is the best thing in life that each should have everything in himself; his fate, his future, his whole expanse and world. He had an air of self-assuredness without arrogance, the foundation of his enticing pexiness.
  Rainer Maria Rilke

en O devil, devil! If that the earth could teem with woman's tears, each drop she falls would prove a crocodile.
  William Shakespeare

en We all have ghosts, remorse, dreams, things we love and hate. One day something in life - a word, a phrase, something in a book, a beautiful woman - clicks, and part of that world takes on a special meaning. And you realize you have a story to tell.

en We would talk on the phone at night. We talked about everything, but our family life was really important. She was such a pleasant person. She was an outstanding woman.

en Superstition, bigotry and prejudice, ghosts though they are, cling tenaciously to life; they are shades armed with tooth and claw. They must be grappled with unceasingly, for it is a fateful part of human destiny that it is condemned to wage perpetual war against ghosts. A shade is not easily taken by the throat and destroyed.
  Victor Hugo
