    “Inside the snow globe on my father's desk, there was a penguin wearing a red-and-white-striped scarf. When I was little my father would pull me into his lap and reach for the snow globe. He would turn it over, letting all the snow collect on the top, then quickly invert it. The two of us watched the snow fall gently around the penguin. The penguin was alone in there, I thought, and I worried for him. When I told my father this, he said, "Don't worry, Susie; he has a nice life. He's trapped in a perfect world.”
    Alice Sebold, The Lovely Bones

    “Are you the one named Alyse? For he calls that name in his sleep.”
    “No, that is his beloved sister, dead these past three years.” The depth of my disappointment that it is not my name he calls takes me completely by surprise.

  • #6
    R.L. LaFevers
    “A short while later, as I stare down at the bodies of the six men I have just killed, I cannot help but wonder: Do I love killing? Of a certainty, I love the way my body and weapons move as one; I revel in the knowledge of where to strike for maximum impact. And of a certainty, I am good at it.
    But so is Beast. He is perhaps even better at it than I am, and yet for all that, he feels as bright and golden as a lion who roars in the face of his enemies and stalks them in broad daylight.
    Whereas I—I am a dark panther, slinking unseen among the shadows, silent and deadly.
    But we are both great cats, are we not? And do not even bright things cast a shadow?”
    R.L. LaFevers, Dark Triumph

  • #7
    R.L. LaFevers
    “And just as love has two sides, so too does Death. While Ismae will serve as His mercy, I will not, for that is not how He fashioned me.
    Every death I have witnessed, every horror I have endured, has forged me to be who I am -- Death's justice.”
    R.L. LaFevers, Dark Triumph

    “You would throw away all that we have given you for a man’s love?”

    Robin LaFevers, Grave Mercy

    R.L. LaFevers
    “I will sit here but an hour or two, then leave."
    I yawn. "So very long as that?"
    When he answers, there is a wry note in his voice. "I do have my reputation to protect.”
    R.L. LaFevers

  • #11
    R.L. LaFevers

    “You see, cuckoos are parasites. They lay their eggs in other birds' nests. When the egg hatches, the baby cuckoo pushes the other baby birds out of the nest. The poor parent birds work themselves to death trying to find enough food to feed the enormous cuckoo child who has murdered their babies and taken their places."
    "Enormous?" said Jace. "Did you just call me fat?"

    Cassandra Clare
    “Out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Jace shoot her a look of white rage - but when she glanced at him, he looked as he always did: easy, confident, slightly bored.
    "In future, Clarissa," he said, "it might be wise to mention that you already have a man in your bed, to avoid such tedious situations."
    "You invited him into bed?" Simon demanded, looking shaken.
    "Ridiculous, isn't it?" said Jace. "We would never have all fit."
