“You don't deserve words, Sky. You deserve actions.”
― Colleen Hoover, Hopeless

“Los sentimientos no son más que pensamientos silenciosos.”
― Gabriel Rolón, Encuentros

“Por eso, cuando hablamos del amor, se dificulta tanto, porque estamos hablando de algo a lo cual es muy difícil de ponerle palabras. De allí que muchos, si pudieran, inventarían algún aparato que les permitiera medir con exactitud el grado del amor, para saber con certeza cuánto lo quieren. Pero, ante la falta de tan preciado instrumento, nos conformamos con metáforas más bien geográficas, y así alguien le dice a su pareja que la quiere hasta el cielo. Pero ella, que quiere marcar que su amor es más grande, le responde que ella también lo quiere hasta el cielo, pero ida y vuelta.”
― Gabriel Rolón, Encuentros

“The waves have now a redder glow-
The hours are breathing faint and low-
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousan thrones,
Shall do it reverence."

- Edgar Allan Poe, "City in the Sea”
― Cassandra Clare, Queen of Air and Darkness

“Love and hate are visceral. Your stomach twists at the thought of that person. The heart in your chest beats heavy and bright, nearly visible through your flesh and clothes. Your appetite and sleep are shredded. Every interaction spikes your blood with a dangerous kind of adrenaline, and you're on the brink of fight or flight. Your body is barely under your control. You're consumed, and it scares you.”
― Sally Thorne, The Hating Game

“Lucinda. What the fuck? Why would you do that?" His anger is visceral.
"You were sitting there at your desk, looking at me like I was a loser."
"Fucking hell. Is my face so fucking difficult to read?" When I say nothing, he shakes his head.
"So somehow I caused all of this? Danny sniffing around like a little dog?"
"Yes, it was a lie, but you wouldn't let it go. You said you were going to the same bar too. How could I sit there alone? I had to go down to design and find someone. He was the one I knew would say yes."
"You wouldn't have been sitting there alone. I would have been there. It would have been me.”
― Sally Thorne, The Hating Game

“There are those who seek me a lifetime but never we meet,
And those I kiss but who trample me beneath ungrateful feet.

At times I seem to favor the clever and the fair,
But I bless all those who are brave enough to dare.

By large, my ministrations are soft-handed and sweet,
But scorned, I become a difficult beast to defeat.

For though each of my strikes lands a powerful blow,
When I kill, I do it slow... ”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses

“Do you ever stop being so serious and dull?"
"Do you ever stop being such a prick?" I snapped back.

But Lucien grinned at me. "Much better.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses

“When you healed my arm...You didn't need to bargain with me. You could have demanded every single week of the year." My brows knit together as he turned, already half-consumed by the dark. "Every single week, and I would have said yes." It wasn't entirely a question, but I needed the answer.
A half smile appeared on his sensuous lips. "I know," he said, and vanished.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses
