Mocking Quotes

― Dennis Kucinich

― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

“He looks around in amazement, taking in the mess. 'Where- Do you really sleep here? Perhaps you ought to set fire to your rooms as well.'

'Maybe,' I say, guiding him to my bed. It is strange to put my hand on his back. I can feel the warmth of his skin through the thin linen of his shirt, can feel the flex of his muscles.

It feels wrong to touch him as though he were a regular person, as though he weren't both the High King and also my enemy.

He needs no encouragement to sprawl on my mattress, head on the pillow, black hair spilling like crow feathers. He looks up at me with his night-coloured eyes, beautiful and terrible all at once. 'For a moment,' he says, 'I wondered if it wasn't you shooting bolts at me.'

I make a face at him. 'And what made you decide it wasn't?'

He grins up at me. 'They missed.'

I have said that he has the power to deliver a compliment and make it hurt. So, too, can he say something that ought to be insulting and deliver it in such a way that it feels like being truly seen.

Our eyes meet, and something dangerous sparks.

He hates you, I remind myself.

'Kiss me again,' he says, drunk and foolish. 'Kiss me until I am sick of it.'

I feel those words, feel them like a kick in the stomach. He sees my expression and laughs, a sound full of mockery. I can't tell which of us he's laughing at.

He hates you. Even if he wants you, he hates you.

Maybe he hates you the more for it.

After a moment, his eyes flutter closed. His voice falls to a whisper, as though he's talking to himself. 'If you're the sickness, I suppose you can't also be the cure.'

He drifts off to sleep, but I am wide awake.”
― Holly Black, The Wicked King

“To render help is human.
To keep it secret is divine.”

“The awful reality of life is that kids can sometimes be ruthless toward one another. Kidding, teasing, taunting, and mocking with sadistic sarcasm, they have exterminated innumerable self-esteems. Some are more adept at Humiliation 101 than they are at math or science. It's a choice between homework and hassling a weaker member of the human race. And the latter often wins out. No wonder. It's much more fun to obliterate a person's already fragile self-image than it is to work fractions for some teacher who attended school with your grandmother. It's an art form, actually, with some kids as budding Rembrandts. Whether vocal or unspoken, direct or passive, it's always destructive. Like an arrow, the rejection a young person feels plunges deep within, causing a wound that can take decades to heal.”
― Jeff Kinley

“You climb out of the train with all your shit, you're a little groggy, a little discouraged. You're not expecting anyone to be there, then boom! Someone's there after all, at the end of the platform, waiting for you. Haven't you ever dreamt that would happen to you?"
"I don't dream."
"I don't dream," she repeated in a macho tone. "I don't dream and I don't like a cocktease. May that be a warning, babe."
He looked devastated.”
― Anna Gavalda, Hunting and Gathering

“Those who don't lift, laugh. Those who are humans, lift.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Mücadele Muhabbet: Gospel of An Unarmed Soldier

“Ohhhhhhhhhh
The King’s hair is quite fair,
And his smile’s all there.
Yet beside of all this,
The King has no heir!

Foooooooooor
The King is not there, down there.
No the King is not there, down there.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaall
The maids are so pretty,
And some even witty!
But still no heir is there,
And say so my ditty!

The King is not there, down there.
No the King is not there, down there.

Sooooooooooo
Don’t hang your brother,
For the sake of your mother!
Cuz we’ve still no heir to spare,
Unless she whelped another!

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
The king is not there, down there.
No, the King is not there, down there.”
― L.P. Cowling, Gearpox

“I imagine that is I asked, she'd roll with me right here until we turned her white gown green and then thank me for the honour of my favour.' He smiles, going in for the kill, leaning toward me as if confiding a secret. 'Not that I'd be the first to green gown her.”
