There's a real emphasis on being witty in Scotland, even in crime novels.
We were basically strangers going off into the wilderness
Hopes are but the dreams of those that wake.
My first Mongolia trip made me look at the world differently
Examples draw where precept fails, and sermons are less read than tales.
In arms and science tis the same Our rival's hurts create our fame.
Human science is an uncertain guess.
Nature is nobody's ally.
On my fortieth birthday, rather than merely bore my friends by having anything as mundane as a midlife crisis I decided it might be more interesting to actually terrify them by going completely mad and declaring myself to be a magician.
I hate abortions, but just could not make that choice for someone else.
I love nature and enjoy learning new skills.
