* In ''Calliope'', Ric Madoc buys the eponymous muse from Erasmus Fry for the price of a bezoar, a magical...thingie that is generated in something's digestive system. It's most famous property is the ability to remedy poison effects. Erasmus says he'll put this new one with the rest of them, implying that he has several. Years later, Ric finds out that Erasmus died last summer by poisoning himself. That could mean a lot of things.▼

* In ''A Game of You'', Thessaly apparently drinks soy milk. She's thousands of years old. She was probably born before the people in her part of the world developed the ability to digest lactose as adults.
* In ''Dream of a Thousand Cats'', Dream tells a cat that the universe can be changed when many beings fall asleep and have the same dream. The cat wants vengeance for it's kittens that were killed by humans and attempts to convince others to dream of a world where cats are larger than humans, rule the world, and hunt them for sport. Just more crazy rules of the dream world? No. Why the hell would many people dreaming the same thing make it true? Morpheus can force them to dream whatever he wants, and a world in which cats eat those that serve them couldn't be sustainable. He lied. He gave the cat just like Joshua Norton a goal that wouldn't really be achieved, but their dreams gave them both power, a reason to live, and perhaps joy.

* In ''Endless Nights'', Despair convinces Rao to create the planet Krypton inherently unstable, and to manipulate events so that there will be only one survivor who will carry the despair of the entire world's death. Instead, that survivor turns out to be Superman, who is practically the anthropomorphic personification of hope in the DC Universe. Why? Because despair, by its very nature, always fails.
** Also, it is stated that the Endless, by their nature, also define and embody their opposite, like how Death is also the one who bestows life upon newborns, or how Desire can inspire love or hatred.
