"Inigo was in Despair.
Hard to find on the map (this was after maps) not because cartographers didn't know of its existence, but because when they visited to measure its precise dimensions, they became so depressed they began to drink and question everything, most notably why would anyone want to be something as stupid as a cartographer? It required constant travel, no one ever knew your name, and, most of all, since wars were always changing borders, why bother? There grew up, then, a gentleman's agreement among mapmakers of the period to keep the place as secret as possible, lest tourists flock there and die."

While standing out in the rain, playing volleyball, my friend said:
"It's like taking a shower....only less...naked."
"Finding interesting quotes was a hobby of hers. Her goal was to memorize the best of them, to use at proper moments later, in random conversations. Having found many on her own, she now wished to know her friend's favorite quotes, and whether or not they enjoyed her favorites."
