The signs as literary quotes
* Check Sun, rising and Mercury (add. Moon)
Aries: There are weaknesses in life and there are lights, and you are one of the lights, the light of all lights. - Dracula by Bram Stoker.
Taurus: Nowadays people know the price of everything and the value of nothing. - The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.
Gemini: No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be the true. - The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
Cancer: Why can't people have what they want? The things were all there to content everybody; yet everybody has the wrong thing. - The Good Soldier by Ford Maddox Ford.
Leo: Even tho' we are not now that strength which in the old days moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield. - Ulysses by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.
Virgo: It is far better to be taught to think critically and then be allowed to make your own decisions than to have someone else's notions thrust upon you. - Eldest by Christopher Paolini.
Libra: We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom. We lived in the gaps between stories. - The Handmaid's Tailor.
Scorpio: No one can tell what goes on between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of change. You just come out on the other side. Or you don't. - The Stand by Stephen King.
Sagittarius: 'Stuff your eyes with wonder,' he said. 'Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's far more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.' - Fahrenheit 541 by Ray Bradbury.
Capricorn: The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, the mark of a mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one. - Catcher In The Rye by J.D. Salinger.
Aquarius: The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars. - On The Road by Jack Kerouac.
Pisces: Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic. - Dune by Frank Halbert.
