These pretzels are making me thirsty!  (Zel Quotes) I went out to the hazelwood because a fire was in my head  (Zel Quotes) Love makes intellectual pretzels of us all  (Zel Quotes) Gazelles didn’t lie down with lions, at least not unbloodied and alive  (Zel Quotes) Why should a lobster be any more ridiculous than a dog?... or a cat, or a gazelle, or a lion, or any other animal one chooses to take for a walk? I have a liking for lobsters. They are peaceful, serious creatures... Goethe had an aversion to dogs, and he wasn’t mad. They know the secrets of the sea, they don’t bark  (Zel Quotes) He is probably choking on a pretzel or something. I hope nobody tells him that I have won this award while he is eating a pretzel... He has the funniest lines in the film. I am eternally grateful to him  (Zel Quotes) Peppers, garlic, hazelnuts and brazil nuts make my mouth, tongue and eyes swell and itch within minutes of eating them  (Zel Quotes) People feared snowstorms once. Hazel read about this all the time. Pioneers opened their front doors and saw they’d been entombed in snow overnight. They walked across malevolent swirling whiteness and did not know if they would survive. Nature can destroy us in a blink. We live on only at its pleasure. That was what looking at the witch was like  (Zel Quotes) It doesn’t matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you better be running  (Zel Quotes) Nature is very clear on this. In fact, there’s one fundamental law that all of nature obeys that mankind breaks everyday. Now this is a law that’s evolved over billions of years and the law is this: nothing in nature takes more than it needs. A redwood tree doesn’t take all of the soil’s nutrients, just what it needs to grow. A lion doesn’t kill every gazelle, just one. We have a term for something in the body when it takes more than its share. We call it cancer  (Zel Quotes) Time is a monster that cannot be reasoned with. It responds like a snail to our impatience, then it races like a gazelle when you can’t catch a breath  (Zel Quotes) As a young child I wanted to be a writer because writers were rich and famous. They lounged around Singapore and Rangoon smoking opium in a yellow pongee silk suit. They sniffed cocaine in Mayfair and they penetrated forbidden swamps with a faithful native boy and lived in the native quarter of Tangier smoking hashish and languidly caressing a pet gazelle  (Zel Quotes) I was so shy. Instead of waiting in line with other kids at lunch, I’d go to a corner and buy a pretzel and orange juice. I think I had that for lunch the first three years of high school  (Zel Quotes) Azazello begged her not to worry, assuring her that he had seen not only naked women but also women with their skin flayed clean off  (Zel Quotes) Criticism is properly the rod of divination: a hazel switch for the discovery of buried treasure, not a birch twig for the castigation of offenders  (Zel Quotes) I’ve been into the habit of freezing white grapes and using them as a snack. Instead of eating peanuts or popcorn or something like that or pretzels, I just eat the white grapes  (Zel Quotes) Denzel’s quality, I think, is his faith. You have all the action in your head and you have to believe in it and just do it. That’s what he does and that’s what he taught me to do  (Zel Quotes) I try to call my mother, Betty, with more regularity because I think, What if Hazel didn't call me for two weeks? I'm able to see her mothering now from a different vantage point  (Zel Quotes) I cannot absorb living in a world where I have an Oscar for best actress and Denzel doesn't have one for best actor  (Zel Quotes) A lot of people... Kind of make heroes that are separate from us, people who are, you know, like... John Wayne and Errol Flynn and, you know, denzel Washington... People who are different, who are larger than life  (Zel Quotes) I never nursed a dear Gazelle to glad me with its soft black eye, but when it came to know me well, and love me, it was sure to marry a market gardener  (Zel Quotes)
