    Tess Wakefield, Purple Hearts

    Fyodor Dostoevsky
    “I am a dreamer. I know so little of real life that I just can’t help re-living such moments as these in my dreams, for such moments are something I have very rarely experienced. I am going to dream about you the whole night, the whole week, the whole year.”
    Fyodor Dostoyevsky, White Nights

    Anton Chekhov
    “I often think, what if one were to begin life over again, knowing what one is about! If one life, which has been already lived, were only a rough sketch so to speak, and the second were the fair copy! Then, I fancy, every one of us would feel compelled not to repeat himself, at the very least to rearrange his manner of life.”
    Anton Chekhov, The Three Sisters

    “You can't force love, I realized. It's there or it isn't. If it's not there, you've got to be able to admit it. If it is there, you've got to do whatever it takes to protect the ones you love.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    Richelle Mead
    “By the way, my name's Rose Hathaway. I'm seventeen years old, training to protect and kill vampires, in love with a completely unsuitable guy, and have a best friend whose weird magic could drive her crazy.
    Hey, no one said high school was easy.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    “I think you smoke them so you have something to do while thinking up your next witty line."
    He choked on the smoke, caught between inhaling and laughing. "Rose Hathaway, I can't wait to see you again. If you're this charming while tired and annoyed and this gorgeous while bruised and in ski clothes, you must be devastating at your peak."
    "If by 'devastating' you mean that you should fear for your life, then yeah. You're right." I jerked open the door. "Good night, Adrian."
    "I'll see you soon."
    "Not likely. I told you, I'm not into older guys."
    I walked into the lodge. As the door closed, I just barely heard him call behind me, "Sure, you aren't.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    “I should go," I said thickly. "Let me know when you want to start practice again. And thanks for...talking."

    I started to turn; then I heard him say abruptly, "No."

    I glanced back. "What?"

    He held my gaze, and something warm and wonderful and powerful shot between us.

    "No," he repeated. "I told her no."

    "I..." I shut my mouth before my jaw hit the floor. "But...why? That was a once-in-a-lifetime thing. You could have had a baby. And she...she was, you know, into you..."

    The ghost of a smile flickered on his face. "Yes, she was. Is. And that's why I had to say no. I couldn't return that...couldn't give her what she wanted. Not when..." He took a few steps toward me. "Not when my heart is somewhere else.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    “Rose only hangs out with guys and psychopaths," said Mia.

    "Well," he said cheerfully, "since I'm both a psychopath and a guy, that would explain why we're such good friends.”

    Richelle Mead
    “What matters is that someone—that you—know me that well. When a person can see into your soul, it's hard. It forces you to be open. Vulnerable. It's much easier being with someone who's just more of a casual friend.”
    Richelle Mead, Frostbite

    “Daemon: I checked out your blog.
    Katy: Stalking me again, I see. Do I need to get a restraining order?
    Daemon: In your dreams, Kitten. Oh wait, I'm already starring in those, aren't I?
    Katy: Nightmares, Daemon. Nightmares.”

    “You look like you got more of a bath than the car. I never
    thought washing a car would be so hard, but after watching you for the last fifteen minutes, I’m convinced it should be an Olympic sport.”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Obsidian

    Jennifer L. Armentrout
    “I've always found that the most beautiful people, truly beautiful inside and out, are the ones who are quietly unaware of their effect." His eyes searched mine intently, and for a moment we stood there toe to toe. "The ones who throw their beauty around, waste what they have? Their beauty is only passing. It's just a shell hiding nothing but shadows and emptiness.”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Obsidian
