“The unknown was like a phantom to Winnie. At times it beckoned excitedly, eager to show her things. Other times it loomed before her, a specter that could not be outrun or overpowered.”
Kaci Curtis, Along the Trail

“She glimpsed the fluidity of life in that moment. It was like a river that couldn't be damned, its rapids never slowed. Even when the waters seemed smooth and calm, they were still moving forward.”
Kaci Curtis, Along the Trail

“I was scared of everything. I think... I think I grew up watching my mother be afraid of everything." She paused. "I didn't realize there was another way to be, if you were a woman.”
Kaci Curtis , Along the Trail

“It goes on, this world, stupid and brutal.
But I do not.
I do not.”
Jennifer Donnelly, Revolution

“There is only one thing I fear now - love. For I have seen it and I have felt it and I know that it is love, not death, that undoes us.”
Jennifer Donnelly, Revolution

“I will rain down silver and gold for you. I will shatter the black night, break it open, and pour out a million stars. Turn away from the darkness, the madness, the pain. Open your eyes and know that I am here. That I remember and hope. Open your eyes and look at the light.”
Jennifer Donnelly, Revolution

“Life is a book and there are a thousand pages I have not yet read.”
Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Princess

“For this I would be damned forever. For this I would have given up everything.”
Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Princess
