    Charlotte Brontë
    “I believe in some blending of hope and sunshine sweetening the worst lots. I believe that this life is not all; neither the beginning nor the end. I believe while I tremble; I trust while I weep.”
    Charlotte Bronte, Villette

    Stephenie Meyer
    “You could run from someone you feared, you could try to fight someone you hated. All my reactions were geared toward those kinds of killers – the monsters, the enemies. When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give your beloved, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?”
    Stephenie Meyer, Breaking Dawn

    J.K. Rowling
    “You see!" said a strained voice. Tonks was glaring at Lupin. "She still wants to marry him, even though he's been bitten! She doesn't care!"
    "It's different," said Lupin, barely moving his lips and looking suddenly tense. "Bill will not be a full werewolf. The cases are completely-"
    "But I don't care either, I don't care!" said Tonks, seizing the front of Lupin's robes and shaking them. "I've told you a million times...."
    And the meaning of Tonk's Patronus and her mouse-colored hair, and the reason she had come running to find Dumbledore when she had heard a rumor someone had been attacked by Greyback, all suddenly became clear to Harry; it had not been Sirius that Tonks had fallen in love with after all.
    "And I've told you a million times," said Lupin, refusing to meet her eyes, staring at the floor, "that I am too old for you, too poor....too dangerous...."
    "I've said all along you're taking a ridiculous line on this, Remus," said Mrs. Weasley over Fleur's shoulder as she patted her on the back.
    "I am not being ridiculous," said Lupin steadily. "Tonks deserves somebody young and whole."
    "But she wants you," said Mr. Weasley, with a small smile. "And after all, Remus, young and whole men do not necessarily remain so."
    He gestured sadly at his son, lying between them.
    "This is....not the moment to discuss it," said Lupin, avoiding everybody's eyes as he looked around distractedly. "Dumbledore is dead...."
    "Dumbledore would have been happier than anybody to think that there was a little more love in the world," said Professor McGonagall curtly...”
    J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    Richard Lovelace
    “Stone walls do not a prison make,
    Nor iron bars a cage;
    Minds innocent and quiet take
    That for an hermitage;
    If I have freedom in my love
    And in my soul am free,
    Angels alone, that soar above,
    Enjoy such liberty.”
    Richard Lovelace, To Althea, from Prison

    “I was losing her, she wouldn’t listen to me, and I was about to fail my third quiz of the semester. Great.
    By the way, can you simplify 7x – 2(4x – 6)?
    I knew she could. She was already in Trig.
    What does that have to do with anything?
    Nothing. But I’m failing this quiz.
    She sighed.
    A Caster girlfriend had some perks.”

    “Macon Ethan
    I lay my head down on his chest and cried because had lived
    because he had died
    a dry ocean, a desert of emotion
    happysad darklight sorrowjoy swept over me, under me
    i could hear the sound but i could not understand the words
    and then i realized the sound was me, breaking
    in one moment i was feeling everything and i was feeling nothing
    i was shattered, i was saved, i lost everthing, i was given everything else
    something in me died, something in me was born, i only knew
    the girl was gone
    whoever i was now, i would never be her again this is the way
    the world ends not with a bang but a whimper
    claim yourself claim yourself claim yourself claim
    gratitude fury love despair hope hate
    first green is gold but nothing green can stay
    dont
    try
    nothing
    green
    can
    stay

    -Lena Duchannes”
    Kami Garcia, Beautiful Creatures

    “I would not be you for a kingdom.'

    The remark was too naïve to rouse anger; I merely said -

    'Very good.'

    'And what would you give to be ME?' she inquired.

    'Not a bad sixpence - strange as it may sound', I replied. 'You are but a poor creature.'

    'You don't think so in your heart.'

    'No; for in my heart you have not the outline of a place: I only occasionally turn you over in my brain.”
    Charlotte Brontë, Villette

    “I know - I'll play you for it," Alice suggested. "Rock, paper, scissors."
    Jasper chuckled and Edward sighed.
    "Why don't you just tell me who wins?" Edward said wryly.

    “Leah: "That is easily the freakin’ grossest thing I’ve ever heard in my life. Yuck. If there was anything in my stomach, it would be coming back."
    Seth: "They are vampires, I guess. I mean, it makes sense, and if it helps Bella, it’s a good thing, right?"
    Leah and Jake stare at Seth.
    Seth: "What?"
    Leah: "Mom dropped him a lot when he was a baby."
    Jake: "On his head apparently."
    Leah: "He used to gnaw on the crib bars, too."
    Jake: "Lead paint?"
    Leah: "Looks like it."
    Seth: "Funny. Why don’t you two shut up and sleep?”

    Has she heard it?" I asked Edward.
    No." He answered.
