Quotes

Ghazel Mostafahas quoted8 months ago
“I’ll make some hot buttered toast,” she said.

“Is that all you can do in the face of tragedy?” Howl asked.
Ghazel Mostafahas quoted8 months ago
Howl’s voice was presently heard shouting weakly, “Help me, someone! I’m dying from neglect up here!”
Sara Hilalhas quotedlast year
Wizard Howl was bad enough. Though he did not seem to want to leave the hills, he was known to amuse himself by collecting young girls and sucking the souls from them. Or some people said he ate their hearts. He was an utterly cold-blooded and heartless wizard and no young girl was safe from him if he caught her on her own.
