    “You think these recent events are everything. You think Aaron fell in love with your friend of several months, a rebel girl named Juliette. You don't know. You don't know. You don't know that Aaron has been in love with Ella for the better part of his entire life. They've known each other since childhood...…..The reason he had to keep wiping their memories was because it didn't matter how many times he reset the story or remade the introductions - Aaron always fell in love with her. Every time.

    Holly Black
    “To the High Queen of Elfhame,

    Above me is the same silvery moon that shines down on you. Looking at it makes me recall the glint of your blade pressed against my throat and other romantic moments.

    I do not know what keeps you from returning
    to the High Court—whether it is vexation
    with me, or whether, having spent time in
    the mortal world, you have come to believe
    that a life free of the Folk is better than one
    ruling over them.

    In my most wretched hours, I believe you will
    never come back.

    Why would you, save for your ambition?
    You have always known exactly what I am
    and seen all my failings, all my weaknesses
    and scars. I flattered myself that at moments
    you had feelings for me other than contempt,
    but even were that true, they would be but
    watered wine beside the feast of your other,
    greater desires.

    And yet my heart is buried with you in the
    strange soil of the mortal world, as it was
    drowned with you in the cold waters of the
    Undersea.

    It was yours before I could admit it, and yours
    it shall ever remain.

    Cardan”
    Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

    “Have I told you how hideous you look tonight?' Cardan asks, leaning back in the elaborately carved chair, the warmth of his words turning the question in to something like a compliment.

    'No,' I say, glad to be annoyed back in to the present. 'Tell me.'

    'I cannot,' he says, then frowns.”
    Holly Black, The Cruel Prince

    “It's you I love," he says. "I spent much of my life guarding my heart. I guarded it so well that I could behave as though I didn't have one at all. Even now, it is a shabby, worm-eaten, and scabrous thing. But it is yours.”
    Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

  • #16
    Stephanie Garber
    “The Fate didn’t move. He didn’t let the girl go. He looked as if he never would. He continued holding her as if he could return her to life with the force of his will. His eyes were wet with blood. Red tears fell down his cheeks and onto hers. But the girl didn’t stir.”

    Monty Jay
    “Before you start teaching me, there is something you should know.”
    A smile of my own works its way onto
    my mouth. I’m about to die, but I don’t care.
    I don’t care.
    “Lyra, don’t you dare.”
    But it’s too late.
    “Don’t underestimate the girl willing to do anything for what she wants.”
    I lean back into the empty air behind me, feeling my stomach drop as I descend towards the crashing waves below. My watery eyes make out Thatcher’s form at the cliff’s edge, peering down at me.
    I win.”
