One Way An Author Dies A Little Each Day Is When His Books Go Out Of Print.

The First Morning After Westley's Departure, Buttercup Thought She Was Entitled To Do Nothing More Than Sit Around Moping And Feeling Sorry For Herself. After All, The Love Of Her Life Had Fled, Life Had No Meaning, How Could You Face The Future, Et Cetera, Et Cetera.

Now What Happens?" Asked The Man In Black. "we Face Each Other As God Intended," Fezzik Said. "no Tricks, No Weapons, Skill Against Skill Alone." "you Mean You'll Put Down Your Rock And I'll Put Down My Sword And We'll Try To Kill Each Other Like Civilized People, Is That It?

Here's What It All Comes Down To: I'm Just Swamped, Ty.

She Loves You," The Prince Cried. "she Loves You Still And You Love Her, So Think Of That--think Of This Too: In All This World, You Might Have Been Happy, Genuinely Happy. Not One Couple In A Century Has That Chance, Not Really, No Matter What The Storybooks Say, But You Could Have Had It, And So, I Would Think, No One Will Ever Suffer A Loss As Great As You.

[prince Humperdinck] Was Seventy-five Minutes Away From His First Female Murder, And He Wondered If He Could Get His Fingers To Her Throat Before Even The Start Of A Scream. He Had Been Practicing On Giant Sausages All The Afternoon And Had The Movements Down Pretty Pat, But Then, Giant Sausages Weren’t Necks And All The Wishing In The World Wouldn’t Make Them So.

Yours In Torment, Buttercup.' She Looked At Humperdinck. 'well? Do You Think I'm Throwing Myself At Him?

My Westley Will Come For Me.

I Must Be Overtired', Buttercup Managed. 'the Excitement And All.' 'rest Then', Her Mother Cautioned. 'terrible Things Can Happen When You're Overtired. I Was Overtired The Night Your Father Proposed.

I Say You Are A Coward And You Are; I Think You Hunt Only To Reassure Yourself That You Are Not What You Are: The Weakest Thing To Ever Walk The Earth.

Westley Closed His Eyes. There Was Pain Coming And He Had To Be Ready For It. He Had To Prepare His Brain, He Had To Get His Mind Controlled And Safe From Their Efforts, So That They Could Not Break Him. He Would Not Let Them Break Him. He Would Hold Together Against Anything And All. If Only They Gave Him Sufficient Time To Make Ready, He Knew He Could Defeat Pain. It Turned Out They Gave Him Sufficient Time (it Was Months Before The Machine Was Ready). But They Broke Him Anyway.

It Was Only When The Giant Got Halfway Down The Incline That He Suddenly, Happily, Burst Into Flame And Continued His Trip Saying, "no Survivors, No Survivors!"

The Tears That Kept Buttercup Company The Remainder Of The Day Were Not At All Like Those That Had Blinded Her Into The Tree Trunk. Those Were Noisy And Hot; They Pulsed. These Were Silent And Steady And All They Did Was Remind Her That She Wasn’t Good Enough. She Was Seventeen, And Every Male She’d Ever Known Had Crumbled At Her Feet And It Meant Nothing.
