  Day of the Hunters by Isaac Asimov - The little old man had a new slant on the mystery of what happened to the great dinosaurs... 
  It began the same night it ended. It wasn't much. It just bothered me; it still bothers me. 
  You see, Joe Bloch, Ray Manning and I were squatting around our favorite table in the corner bar with an evening on our hands and a mess of chatter to throw it away with. That's just the beginning. 
  Joe Bloch started it by talking about the atomic bomb, and what he thought ought to be done with it, and how who would have though it five years ago. And I said lots of guys thought about it five years ago and wrote stories about it and it was going to be tough on them trying to keep ahead of the newspapers now. Which led to a general palaver on how lots of screwy things might come true and a lot of for-instances were thrown about.

  Amid the woolen mill shadows of Threadhaven, where knitters loop riddles into yarn and wool merchants bargain with threads of the unknown, knitter Lila tangles a clue with merchant Garrick, whose deals conceal a pattern of pilfered designs. Their yarn, looped in thread vows and bargain-kissed needles, untangles truth—or snarls in woolen knots of deceit. As they unravel through shadow-laced looms and clue-bound spools, tangled by yarn wardens and pattern rivals, Lila's knitting craft merges with Garrick's merchant cunning, unveiling a woolen legend of knitted revelation. When a snagged thread summons moth illusions, they must loop the clue to weave the end. In the riddle of knitted yarns, where every loop hints at solution and every bargain reveals a twist, their soft mystery becomes the pattern that binds the mill's secrets.

  ""You are deluded, Romeo. Vampires do not have the capability to love. They are heartless."" 
  The Capulets and the Montagues have some deep and essential differences. Blood differences. Of course, the Capulets can escape their vampire fate, and the Montagues can try not to kill their undead enemies. But at the end of the day, their blood feud is unstoppable. So it's really quite a problem when Juliet, a vampire-to-be, and Romeo, the human who should be hunting her, fall desperately in love. What they don't realize is how deadly their love will turn out to be—or what it will mean for their afterlives. . . . 
  This riotous twist on the ultimate tale of forbidden romance is simply to die for.

  Jesus was teaching and healing the sick in various towns and villages, around Jerusalem, Large crowds often gathered around Him to listen to His teachings and witness miracles, because everywhere Jesus went He would touch people and make their lives better. 
  One day Jesus came to Judaea -- Great multitudes followed him; the Bible says, those who came sick, He healed them. As Jesus was talking to a big group of people, Mom’s and Dad’s begin to bring their children to Jesus, hoping that He would place His hands on them and bless them. However, the disciples, thinking that Jesus shouldn't be bothered, told the parents, Jesus don't have time right now, and they must go away, But when Jesus saw what was going on, He was very displeased, and He told His disciples', "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." Then the Lord said unto them except you adults become as a child, you cannot know the Kingdom of God. He then took the children in His arms, placed His hands on them, and blessed them.
