    Jennifer L. Armentrout
    “Don’t you want to know about your truth, child? That is what’s important now. Don’t you want to know about love? About what is forbidden and what is fated?”...

    “I don’t want to know about love.”

    “But you should, my child. You need to know about love.
    The things people wil do for love. All truths come down to love, do they not? One way or another, they do.
    See, there is a difference between love and need. Sometimes, what you feel is immediate and without rhyme or reason... Two people see each across a room or their skin brushes. Their souls recognize the person as their own. It doesn’t need time to figure it. The soul always knows… whether it’s right or wrong...

    The first… the first is always the most powerful... Then there is need and fate. That is a different type. Need covers itself with love, but need… need is never love. Always beware of the one who needs you. There is always a want behind a need."

    Caleb let go of my arm and jabbed fiercely at the walkway behind us.

    “Sometimes you wil mistake need for love. Be careful.

    The road with need is never a fair one, never a good one.

    Much like the road you must walk down. Beware of the one who needs.”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Half-Blood

    “Did I get you in trouble today during practice?”

    “No. I’m usual y easily distracted. So it was nothing new.”

    Luke nudged me, grinning. “I can see why you are distracted. Too bad he’s a pure. I’d give my left butt cheek for a piece of that.”

    “He likes girls.”

    “So?” Luke laughed at my expression. “What’s he like?

    He seems so quiet. Like you know he’d be good in—”

    “Stop right there!”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Half-Blood

    Cassandra Clare
    “Isabelle drifted over, Jace a pace behind her. She was wearing a long black dress with boots and an even longer cutaway coat of soft green velvet, the color of moss. "I can't believe you did it!" she exclaimed. "How did you get Magnus to let Jace leave?"
    "Traded him for Alec," Clary said.
    Isabelle looked mildly alarmed. "Not permanently?"
    "No," said Jace. "Just for a few hours. Unless I don't come back," he added thoughtfully. "In which case, maybe he does get to keep Alec. Think of it as a lease with an option to buy."
    Isabelle looked dubious. "Mom and Dad won't be pleased if they find out."
    "That you freed a possible criminal by trading away your brother to a warlock who looks like a gay Sonic the Hedgehog and dresses like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang?" Simon inquired. "No, probably not.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Ashes

    “I guess there were two types of people in the world, those who sat around a fire, staring into the flames, and those who started the fire.
    Seth and I started the fire, and then we danced around it.”
    Jennifer L. Armentrout, Pure

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All your words are but to say: you are a woman, and your part is in the house. But when the men have died in battle and honour, you have leave to be burned in the house, for the men will need it no more. But I am of the House of Éorl and not a serving-woman. I can ride and wield blade, and I do not fear either pain or death.”
    J.R.R. Tolkien

    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “To whatever end. Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountains. Like wind in the meadow. The days have gone down in the west. Behind the hills, into shadow. How did it come to this?”
    J.R.R. Tolkien

    Emily Brontë
    “You teach me now how cruel you've been - cruel and false. Why did you despise me? Why did you betray your own heart, Cathy? I have not one word of comfort. You deserve this. You have killed yourself. Yes, you may kiss me, and cry; and wring out my kisses and tears: they'll blight you - they'll damn you. You loved me - what right had you to leave me? What right - answer me - for the poor fancy you felt for Linton? Because misery, and degradation, and death, and nothing that God or Satan could inflict would have parted us, you, of your own will did it. I have no broken your heart - you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine. So much the worse for me that I am strong. Do I want to live? What kind of living will it be when you - Oh, God! would you like to lie with your soul in the grave?”
    Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

  • #22
    Emily Brontë
    “Heaven did not seem to be my home; and I broke my heart with weeping to come back to earth; and the angels were so angry that they flung me out into the middle of the heath on the top of Wuthering Heights; where I woke sobbing for joy.”
    Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

    Can it be death?”
