[Suicune's Fire]

It varies story to story but there are accounts where he was so handsome that nymphs fell in love with him. They even reference this in Percy Jackson I think.

I started reading Percy Jackson and wanted to learn more. Plus, people at my school thought I was some uptight Catholic that wouldn't read such "blasphemous scripture" because it wasn't Catholic so I wanted to kind of throw that in their face.

“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."

Thanks to @solivagant for submitting this!

Everybody needs a little Oscar Wilde in there life. He always has such profound ideas that can only be looked at with the most interesting of eyes. This is never more true with this quote. At first it may seem a little confusing, but if you think about it, it makes sense. When people think of something they want to do in the future, something that has never been done before, they are essentially seeing the future, or the dawn of it, before anyone else. And as they work to achieve what has never been done before, they are stumbling through darkness with very little or no light at all to guide them towards what they wish to achieve.

[Rival Max]

He is most awake in his dreams where things are clear. The coming dawn however seems bring the real world flooding back. This is kind of how I took it.

[Suicune's Fire]

I did not understand that quote before you explained it, because I thought he meant dreaming while asleep. XD I do love this quote now that you explain it. How fascinating.

Today's Daily Literature Quote is…

“The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.”

Many times, descriptions can be hard. Putting the image in your head into words is hardly easy so sometimes finding the right words to convey what you mean is very difficult. A lot of times it comes down to a simple key word that makes or breaks a description, as each word is its own crucial support for the bridge that is what you are describing. Thus, having two words that are slightly similar can make a huge difference in the scheme of things, just as lightning and lightning bugs are two completely different things.
