A really inept bear."
― Maureen Johnson, Let It Snow: Three Holiday Romances

"When I say or write something, there are actually a whole lot of different things I am communicating. The propositional content (i.e., the verbal information I'm trying to convey) is only one part of it. Another part is stuff about me, the communicator. Everyone knows this. It's a function of the fact there are so many different well-formed ways to say the same basic thing, from e.g. "I was attacked by a bear!" to "Goddamn bear tried to kill me!" to "That ursine juggernaut did essay to sup upon my person!" and so on."
― David Foster Wallace, Consider the Lobster and Other Essays

"You were the only thing that made me feel safe when the earthquakes threatened to break me. I needed you here because when you're not here, I don't have a home."

"I'll call if I break a leg or get eaten by a bear."
"Play like a rock."
"Now?"
"No, if a bear starts eating you."
I thought for a moment before replying. "Do they have screaming, sobbing rocks, 'cause that's probably what I'll be doing if a bear is gnawing my arm off."
"It would be difficult to just lay there and be eaten alive, huh?"
"Ya think?"
― Darynda Jones, Third Grave Dead Ahead

"Miroku: Kagome, are you worrying about me?
Kagome: I guess so.
Miroku: In that case, I have a favor to ask of you: please bear my child."

"Dead woman are not romantic,' Sophie said flatly.

'Okay, she's not dead,' Phin said. 'The bear ate her, and she came her brains out."
― Jennifer Crusie, Welcome to Temptation

"Most animals show themselves sparingly. The grizzly bear is six to eight hundred pounds of smugness. It has no need to hide. If it were a person, it would laugh loudly in quiet restaurants, boastfully wear the wrong clothes for special occasions, and probably play hockey."
― Craig Childs, The Animal Dialogues: Uncommon Encounters in the Wild

"So the gods must mean something else," said Jix.
"God, not gods!" insisted Johnnie.
Nick threw up his hands. "God, gods, or whatever," said Nick. "Right now, it doesn't matter whether it's Jesus, or Kukulcan, or a dancing bear at the end of the tunnel. What matters is that we have a clue, and we have to figure it out."
"Why?" Johnnie asked again. "Why does God – excuse me, I mean 'the Light of Universal Whatever'- why does it just give us a freakin' impossible clue? Why can't it just tell us what we're supposed to do?"
"Because," said Mikey. "the Dancing Bear wants us to suffer."
― Neal Shusterman, Everfound

"And now, for something completely the same:

Wasted time and wasted breath,
's what I'll make, until my death.
Helping people 'd be as good,
but I wouldn't, if I could.

For the few that help deserve,
have no need, or not the nerve,
help from strangers to accept,
plus from mine a few have wept.

Wept from joy, or from despair,
or just from my vengeful stare.
Ways I have, to look at stupid,
make them see I am not Cupid.

Make them see they are in error,
for of truth I am a bearer.
Most decide I'm just a bear,
mauling at them, - like I care."
― Will Advise, Nothing is here...

"As one does a bear riding a bicycle. One sees it so rarely.
(Spoken by Volger, on Deryn)"
― Scott Westerfeld

"I bet you could catch bullets," she said, and threw the stick away. "How do you do that?"

"By not being human," he said. "That's why you could never trick a bear. We see tricks and deceit as plain as arms and legs. We can see in a way humans have forgotten. But you know about this; you can understand the symbol reader."
― Philip Pullman, The Golden Compass

"Good morning, sunshine," he said, his smile quickly disappearing in the face of her murderous glance when she raised her face to look at him.

"Shut up and die, morning person. Coffee," she mumbled.

Right. Note to self. Mate was not a morning person. He poured a cup of coffee and placed it on the table near her hand along with the sweetener and cream. He watched as she poured three packets of Equal into the coffee with her forehead still on the table. He looked on in amazement as she felt around and unscrewed the cap to the cream before dousing the dark liquid. She stirred for a second before dragging the cup to her lips. After a few sips she was able to lift her head. By the time she had finished half a cup she was sitting upright. When she finished the cup, her eyes were open and she was looking around.

"You need to be a coffee commercial," Connor said, staring at his mate."
― Alanea Alder, Fated Surrender

"I sit up straighter and puff out my chest a little bit, unsure why I'm doing so even as I do it. I know when I speak I'll have dropped my voice an octave to make myself seem more manly, and when I shake he hand, my grip will be tight and strong. Stupid, I know, but I'm a guy. It's what we do."
― TJ Klune, Who We Are

"And there was nothing quite like the surprise attack of a snarling black bear, even one missing all forty-two teeth, to urge someone back to work. Waking up with several hundred mud-encrusted, reeking pounds on top of you — your neck suffering a hickey of epic proportions — just pushed the limits on what was tolerable."
― Cole Alpaugh, The Bear in a Muddy Tutu

"It was a year ago today your daughter went missing.' Bagg had closed his eyes, feeling the death going on inside."
― Cole Alpaugh

"Gracie leaned out the back, craning her neck as far as she could around the side, trying to catch the wind in her nose and flapping lips. She loved driving, and this car was much faster than the truck which hauled her cage. It was very green here, and the sun flashed and flickered behind the tall trees. There were a million smells along this road, both old and just born. She closed her eyes and huffed, pretending she was flying."
― Cole Alpaugh, The Bear in a Muddy Tutu

"Taking a couple short backup swigs, Flint's crippling headache started to release its grip, sort of the way he imagined an octopus would release an inedible bowling ball."
― Cole Alpaugh, The Bear in a Muddy Tutu

"When it comes to 'poking the bear,' the length of my stick will never be long enough to outrun the consequences of either the bear or my stupidity."
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

"There is one thing that you need to know about the negative market movement; the bigger the dip, the bigger the rip."
― Olawale Daniel

"Ah, that name again," Callian said. "When will I get to meet the mysterious Roo?"

"I can take you to meet her," Kuma said with a shy smile. "Later today, if you want."

"Make sure she's in the right kind of mood first," Raffa added. "If she's not, I wouldn't go anywhere near her--she can be pretty ferocious."

"Shakes, you're making her sound like--like a bear or something," Callian said.

Raffa and Kuma exchanged puzzled glances.

"You didn't tell him?" Raffa asked.

Kuma frowned a little. "I guess it never came up," she said.

"What never came up?" Callian was clearly confused.

"She is a bear," Kuma said.

Callian shrugged. "Some folks are just grumpier than others, I guess."

Raffa snorted. "No, she's a bear. A really big one." He stretched his arm overhead to indicate Roo's height.

Callian looked at Raffa. "A bear"

Raffa nodded

Callian turned to Kuma. "A bear?'

"A bear," she said.

"Um, are you-- is she--"

"A bear," they said together.

A pause.

"Okay," Callian said at least. "A bear."
― Linda Sue Park, Beast of Stone

"The bear seeks fire from above as he cowers under his umbrella of deceit."
― Anthony T. Hincks

"Clouds of sickness shall dispel any misgivings that people had about the bear's intentions."
― Anthony T. Hincks

"Yellow skies will bring more than just rain in the bear's wake."
― Anthony T. Hincks

"Bear all things with brevity."
― Lailah Gifty Akita

"Beside the other two Wayland appeared clumsy, his shoulders almost too broad for the rest of his body, while he moved as clumsily as a bear too, tripping over things, knocking them down; except only when he was at work - and then his clumsiness like a bear's was also elegance; then each of his movements meshed in with the next, each of his muscles co-ordinated, the whole of him was focused to one end, like a sword towards the man it is killing. That end was perfection"
― Kevin Crossley-Holland, The Faber Book Of Northern Folk Tales
