Neris Truide was born with the legendary purple jewel eyes of the ancient warrior Elandria. Despite this, her peers at the noble academy bully her mercilessly, destroying her self-esteem. Adopted by the wealthy and powerful duke Elandria because of her jewel eyes, Neris eventually marries Crown Prince Abelus―only to be pushed aside for his mistress Megara, who led the bullying at school. Neris's life ends at age thirty when she is poisoned by her adoptive sister Valentin. However, instead of dying, she wakes up back at age twelve with her memories of her previous life intact. Enrolled at the academy once more, she sets about exacting revenge on those who ostracized, assaulted, and ultimately murdered her. But she didn't expect that in this life, she'd cross paths with Cledwyn Maindulante, the cunning future ruler of the north. As a determined Neris sets out to make her enemies suffer―and prevent her murder―will Cledwyn turn out to be a dangerous foe, or her closest ally ever?

Catatan Luka
[Quotes]
Terkadang, kita butuh cara untuk melampiaskan rasa sakit yang dialami. Melepaskan luka meski hanya sebentar. Namun setidaknya, ada rasa lega ketika melakukannya. Dan menulis adalah cara termudah untuk mengutarakan rasa. Membuat catatan tentang luka yang tersimpan. Walaupun nyatanya luka itu sulit terhapus, atau mungkin tidak akan. Tapi dengan catatan itu kita akan tahu, bahwa kita pernah berjuang untuk luka yang pernah diterima. Dan kita mampu untuk melewatinya. Hingga sadar bahwa, luka adalah cara untuk melatih hati kita lebih kuat lagi.
Teruslah berjalan meski terasa lelah, karena mungkin di ujung sana, ada jawaban atas rasa lelahmu. Dan kebahagiaan sesungguhnya yang diinginkan hatimu.

The Gospel of John
The Gospel according to John is quite different in character from the three synoptic gospels. It is highly literary and symbolic. It does not follow the same order or reproduce the same stories as the synoptic gospels. To a much greater degree, it is the product of a developed theological reflection and grows out of a different circle and tradition. It was probably written in the 90s of the first century.
The Gospel of John begins with a magnificent prologue, which states many of the major themes and motifs of the gospel, much as an overture does for a musical work. The prologue proclaims Jesus as the preexistent and incarnate Word of God who has revealed the Father to us. The rest of the first chapter forms the introduction to the gospel proper and consists of the Baptist’s testimony about Jesus (there is no baptism of Jesus in this gospel—John simply points him out as the Lamb of God), followed by stories of the call of the first disciples, in which various titles predicated of Jesus in the early church are presented.
The gospel narrative contains a series of “signs”—the gospel’s word for the wondrous deeds of Jesus. The author is primarily interested in the significance of these deeds, and so interprets them for the reader by various reflections, narratives, and discourses. The first sign is the transformation of water into wine at Cana (Jn 2:1–11); this represents the replacement of the Jewish ceremonial washings and symbolizes the entire creative and transforming work of Jesus. The second sign, the cure of the royal official’s son (Jn 4:46–54) simply by the word of Jesus at a distance, signifies the power of Jesus’ life-giving word. The same theme is further developed by other signs, probably for a total of seven. The third sign, the cure of the paralytic at the pool with five porticoes in chap. 5, continues the theme of water offering newness of life. In the preceding chapter, to the woman at the well in Samaria Jesus had offered living water springing up to eternal life, a symbol of the revelation that Jesus brings; here Jesus’ life-giving word replaces the water of the pool that failed to bring life. Jn 6 contains two signs, the multiplication of loaves and the walking on the waters of the Sea of Galilee. These signs are connected much as the manna and the crossing of the Red Sea are in the Passover narrative and symbolize a new exodus. The multiplication of the loaves is interpreted for the reader by the discourse that follows, where the bread of life is used first as a figure for the revelation of God in Jesus and then for the Eucharist. After a series of dialogues reflecting Jesus’ debates with the Jewish authorities at the Feast of Tabernacles in Jn 7; 8, the sixth sign is presented in Jn 9, the sign of the young man born blind. This is a narrative illustration of the theme of conflict in the preceding two chapters; it proclaims the triumph of light over darkness, as Jesus is presented as the Light of the world. This is interpreted by a narrative of controversy between the Pharisees and the young man who had been given his sight by Jesus, ending with a discussion of spiritual blindness and spelling out the symbolic meaning of the cure. And finally, the seventh sign, the raising of Lazarus in chap. 11, is the climax of signs. Lazarus is presented as a token of the real life that Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life, who will now ironically be put to death because of his gift of life to Lazarus, will give to all who believe in him once he has been raised from the dead.

I'm not sure exactly which Columbus quotes are in the 'Annie John' novel without referring directly to the text. It could be that Columbus is mentioned in relation to the island's history or the idea of exploration and discovery, but I'd need to re - read the book to be certain.
Well, 'Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.' is also a memorable line by John Travolta in Pulp Fiction. It's a simple yet impactful statement that comes at a crucial moment in the movie. Travolta's performance really makes this line stand out, and it has become an iconic part of the film's pop - culture legacy.
One of the most famous quotes from Steinbeck is 'And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good.' This quote from 'East of Eden' reflects on the human struggle with self - acceptance. It tells us that we don't need to strive for an unattainable perfection but can simply aim to be good, which is a more achievable and fulfilling goal.
In John Grisham's novels, there are quotes like 'A lawyer has two loyalties, to his clients and to the truth.' This reflects the moral and ethical dilemmas his characters often face. His books are full of such thought - provoking statements that give insights into the legal world and human nature within it. For example, many of his characters are lawyers who have to balance their desire to win cases for their clients with their sense of justice and truth. These quotes not only make the readers think about the legal system but also about the values that should govern our actions.
One of the great quotes from John Green's 'The Fault in Our Stars' is 'My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations.' It beautifully captures the ineffable nature of Hazel's thoughts and feelings, especially in the face of her illness and her complex relationship with Augustus.
Columbus quotes in the 'Annie John' novel could contribute to the overall meaning in several ways. Firstly, they can serve as a reminder of the origin of the cultural mix present in the story's setting. His arrival was the beginning of a new era of cultural interaction. Secondly, they may be used to contrast the freedom and simplicity of the pre - Columbus island life with the more complex and sometimes troubled post - Columbus situation. By using his quotes, the author can draw attention to how the characters' identities are shaped by this long - ago event.
Sure. 'Justice is blind, but it can read the writing on the wall.' This quote is quite memorable as it plays with the idea of justice being impartial yet perceptive.
A great quote is 'I'll be there in three shakes of a lamb's tail.' This quote is a great example of the movie's use of colorful and unique language. John Travolta's delivery makes it sound both casual and somewhat menacing, which is characteristic of the tone of Pulp Fiction.
Quotes like 'A man ain't got nothing but his name.' from 'Of Mice and Men' can reflect the American Dream. In the context of the American Dream, a man's name represents his reputation, which was crucial for people trying to make it in America. If a man had a good name, he could potentially achieve success and a better life, which was at the heart of the American Dream.
