• You know the reason The Beatles made it so big?...'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' First single....brilliant. Perhaps the most...brilliant song ever written. Because they nailed it. That's what everyone wants. Not 24/7 hot wet sex. Not a marriage that lasts a hundred years. Not a Porsche...or a million-dollar crib. No. They wanna hold your hand. They have such a feeling that they can't hide. Every single successful song of the past fifty years can be traced back to 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand.' And every single successful love story has those unbearable and unbearably exciting moments of hand-holding.

• Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned. A good friend who points out mistakes and imperfections and rebukes evil is to be respected as if he reveals a secret of hidden treasure.

• Everything in the media is fleeting. Don't get the wrong idea. Fame is when you're still the hot topic next week or even the week after.

• The grudge you hold on to is like a hot coal that you intend to throw at someone, only you're the one who gets burned.

• Out of the silver heat mirage he ran. The sky burned, and under him the paving was a black mirror reflecting sun-fire. Sweat sprayed his skin with each foot strike so that he ran in a hot mist of his own creation. With each slap on the softened asphalt, his soles absorbed heat that rose through his arches and ankles and the stems of his shins. It was a carnival of pain, but he loved each stride because running distilled him to his essence and the heat hastened this distillation.

  James Tabor

• And now for the vapor-bath: on a framework of three sticks, meeting at the top, they stretch pieces of woolen cloth, taking care to get the joints as perfect as they can, and inside this little tent they put a dish with red-hot stones in it. Then they take some hemp seed, creep into the tent, and throw the seed on to the hot stones. At once it begins to smoke, giving off a vapor unsurpassed by any vapor-bath one could find in Greece. The Sythians enjoy it so much that they howl with pleasure. This is their substitute for an ordinary bath in water, which they never use.

• Sentiment and nostalgia are fatal for fiction. One must go into the territory of the imagination with sure feet, hot fainting with glorious misery.

• It's never been true, not anywhere at any time, that the value of a soul, of a human spirit, is dependent on a number on a scale. We are unrepeatable beings of light and space and water who need these physical vehicles to get around. When we start defining ourselves by that which can be measured or weighed, something deep within us rebels. We don't want to EAT hot fudge sundaes as much as we want our lives to BE hot fudge sundaes. We want to come home to ourselves.

• I often remember in this false, distorted way, and the memories are often cloaked in the colour of the sun. Sometimes I feel nostalgia for things I knew I hated when they were happening, for days spent at the beach or the swimming pool with my sisters.
  When I pick my memories apart, I realise my mind has merely played back the objective ingredients, the clichéd apparatus of happiness, the sun, the sound of splashing water, ice-cream on parched lips and cold fizzy drink on a hot tongue, and laugher too. My memory often peddles on the falsehood of past happiness. I should know this.

• Cats be talkin', "Bobby I ain't feelin' ya."
  But I bet if I was peelin' your cap back with a two-shot Dillinger
  Hot lead released from my cylinder,
  You'd be talkin' 'bout, "Bobby I'm feelin' ya!"

• MCs get a little bit of love and think they hot,
  Talkin bout how much money they got...all y'all records sound the same.
  I'm sick of that fake thug, R&B-rap scenario, all day on the radio,
  Same scenes in the video, monotonous material.
  ...Y'all don't hear me though:
  These record labels slang our tapes like dope.
  You can be next in line and signed, and still be writing rhymes and broke.

• Those who flashin' don't blast, they still buffoons,
  Just blowin out hot air, they should fill balloons.
  I'm like them shorties that could kill for goons,
  They started hustlin' in April to cop wheels in June.

• I seen her in the subway, on my way to Brooklyn.
  "Hello, good lookin, is this seat tooken?"
  
  On the A Train, pickin at her brain,
  I couldn't get her number, I couldn't get her name.
  
  I said, "I still like your style and fashion,
  But I hate your hot sadiddy attitude wit a passion.
  Is it because brothers like to hawk a lot?
  Is it because your sign don't talk a lot?"
  
  She turned away, no play, I said, "OK,
  You don't really look good, I hope you have a bad day."

• Idiom is larger than geography it is the hot breath of a people singing, slashing, explorative. Imagery becomes the magic denominator, the language of a passage, saying the ancient unchanging particulars.
