A Crazy Night at the Library
One night something really large happened at the library. The characters in the stories started fighting from their books!
Erik climbed into Charlotte's Web and started running with Wilbur the Pig! Loren blake wandered into an encyclopedia and ended up lost in Bruthen!
The craziest part was when Zoey Redbird wandered into Marked and said, "Oliver, I don't think we're in Victoria any more."
Then Mrs.Savers walked in and said, "love to eat chocolate! Everybody back in place!"
The characters flying around the room. Just in time! The students in grade 5/6B came in to get books for their reports, but it was safe. All the characters were back in the books where they belonged.



Once More, My Love

This night I shall dream of your bedazzling Pink hair and black panther-eyes.
Wrapped in echoes of your mellifluous heart-music,
I long to sip from your appleful lips.
In my dreams, we fly on the exquisite winged carrot of blueness -- skimming vast continents of brains and tigers.
The depths of all the oceans of the universe shall never separate our bananas.
Brilliant as fightinging Eriks, the seas greet us from afar.
In the twilight we feast on chocolate-coated sharks and tender Lorenhearts of love
Adorned in white silk, we pluck our shriking love chimes from our legss.
I press the school that you wear around your neck against my brain-muffin so that our apples melt into one.
You will always be my little Zoey-cakes face, the black panther of my own fightinging eye of love.

The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool.”

“Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.”

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind.”

“Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them.”
― “A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.”

“This above all: to thine own self be true,
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.”

“It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.”

“If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.”

“Time is very slow for those who wait
Very fast for those who are scared
very long for those who lament
Very short for those who celebrate
But for those who love time is eternal”

“All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages.”

“I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but I see you are unarmed!”

“You speak an infinite deal of nothing.”

“We know what we are, but not what we may be.”

“Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard,
It seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end,
Will come when it will come.”

“My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.”

“My only love sprung from my only hate!
Too early seen unknown, and known too late!
Prodigious birth of love it is to me,
That I must love a loathed enemy.”

“O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father refuse thy name, thou art thyself thou not a montegue, what is montegue? tis nor hand nor foot nor any other part belonging to a man
What is in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet,
So Romeo would were he not Romeo called retain such dear perfection to which he owes without that title,
Romeo, Doth thy name!
And for that name which is no part of thee, take all thyself.”

“The earth has music for those who listen.”

“My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.”

“Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love.”
“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”

“To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”

“Lord, what fools these mortals be!”

“thus with a kiss I die”

“Hell is empty and all the devils are here.”

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triump die, like fire and powder
Which, as they kiss, consume”

“Words are easy, like the wind; Faithful friends are hard to find.”

“When he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.”

“Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no, it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring barque,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved.”

“Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.”

“To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause: there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office and the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscover'd country from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.--Soft you now!
The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remember'd!”

“When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew.”

“Dispute not with her: she is lunatic.”

“If you love and get hurt, love more.

If you love more and hurt more, love even more.

If you love even more and get hurt even more, love some more until it hurts no more...”

“They do not love that do not show their love. The course of true love never did run smooth. Love is a familiar. Love is a devil. There is no evil angel but Love.”

“Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And too often is his gold complexion dimm'd:
And every fair from fair sometimes declines,
By chance or natures changing course untrimm'd;
By thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.”

“To die, to sleep -
To sleep, perchance to dream - ay, there's the rub,
For in this sleep of death what dreams may come...”

“Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.”

“Presume not that I am the thing I was.”

“Good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow,
That I shall say good night till it be morrow.”
“There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.”

“I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands,
organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same
food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases,
heal'd by the same means, warm'd and cool'd by the same winter
and summer, as a Christian is?

If you prick us, do we not bleed? If
you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die?
And if you wrong us, do we not revenge? If we are like you in the
rest, we will resemble you in that."

“The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.”

“To weep is to make less the depth of grief.”

“Though this be madness, yet there is method in't.”

“Do you bite your thumb at us, sir?”

“By the pricking of my thumbs, Something wicked this way comes.”

“Brevity is the soul of wit.”

“The object of Art is to give life a shape.”

“Love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is! "

You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you. ~Frederick Buechner


I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read and all the friends I want to see.

It's night before it's afternoon.
December is here before it's June.
My goodness how the time has flewn.
How did it get so late so soon?
