  1. Robert M. Pirsig _ Zen and the Art of Motorcycle

    That's extremely important to understand. He had given up.Because he'd given up, the surface of life was comfortable for him.

  3. Rick Riordan _ The Last Olympian

    The goddess smiled. "You are a good hero, Percy Jackson. Not too proud. I like that. But you have much to learn. When Dionysus was made a god, I gave up my throne for him. It was the only way to avoid a civil war among the gods.""It unbalanced the Council," I remembered. "Suddenly there were seven guys and five girls."Hestia shrugged.

"I know."He sucked in an audible breath. "Mallory..."I shook my head as I thought about all the conflicting emotions and needs and wants. "It's true. It's what I do. I don't mean to. Or maybe I do. It's...it's easier being scared of everything.""How...how can that be?" His voice softened. "How can that be easier?"My smile was faint. Suddenly, I really wished I was at home, with my head under the blankets. "You can't fail when you don't really try, right? You'd know that.
