#TwilightForever: New Moon's Original Epigraph

Come, gentle night; come, loving, black-browed night;
Give me my Romeo; and, when I shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night...
—Romeo and Juliet Act III scene ii

According to Stephenie Meyer's website,  the passage above was the original epigraph for New Moon, but she changed it to one with far darker foreshadowing. Even so, the original was very romantic and dark and very fitting for Edward and Bella's love.

#TwilightForever: Leave Out All The Rest

Linkin Park was another inspiration of Stephenie Meyer's. Bella even listens to a Linkin Park CD in the book given to her by her stepfather Phil. The song Leave Out All The Rest is the second credits song.

#TwilightForever: Vampire Baseball

To me, the vampire baseball scene is an important insight into the Cullen family. They cling to their humanity through being a family, and this is a perfect example of how they support each other as a family so that they can have the strength together to continue on in their difficult and challenging lifestyle.

#TwilightForever: The Meadow

"Edward in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn’t get used to it, though I’d been staring at him all afternoon. His skin, white despite the faint flush from yesterday’s hunting trip, literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface. He lay perfectly still in the grass, his shirt open over his sculpted, incandescent chest, his scintillating arms bare. His glistening, pale lavender lids were shut, though of course he didn't sleep. A perfect statue, carved in some unknown stone, smooth like marble, glittering like crystal."
-- Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, page 260.

Everything is better with sparkles. Trust me on that one.
