    Pablo Neruda
    “I have named you queen.
    There are taller than you, taller.
    There are purer than you, purer.
    There are lovelier than you, lovelier.
    But you are the queen.

    When you go through the streets
    No one recognizes you.
    No one sees your crystal crown, no one looks
    At the carpet of red gold
    That you tread as you pass,
    The nonexistent carpet.

    And when you appear
    All the rivers sound
    In my body, bells
    Shake the sky,
    And a hymn fills the world.

    Only you and I,
    Only you and I, my love,
    Listen to it.”
    Pablo Neruda, Love Poems

    “Find something useful to do with your morning,' she thought to him as she neared her chambers. 'Do something heroic in front of an audience. Knock a child into a river while no one's looking and then rescue him.”

    “Teddy grinned again. 'Truths are dangerous,' he said.
    -'Then why are you writing them in a book?'
    -'To catch them between the pages,' said Teddy, 'and trap them before they disappear.'
    -'If they're dangerous, why not let them disappear?'
    -'Because when truths disappear, they leave behind blank spaces, and that is also dangerous.”
    Kristin Cashore, Bitterblue

    “I'd thought once, actually, of taking your mind, if you asked. I'd thought I could help you fall asleep at night."
    He opened his mouth to say something. Shut it again. His face closed for a moment, his unreadable mask falling into place. He spoke softly. "But that wouldn't be fair; for after I slept you'd be left awake, with no one to help you sleep.”
    Kristin Cashore, Fire

  • #6
    “Well then," Roen said briskly, "are you sleeping?"
    "Yes."
    "Come now. A mother can tell when her son lies. Are you eating?"
    "No," Brigan said gravely. "I've not eaten in two months. It's a hunger strike to protest the spring flooding in the south."
    "Gracious," Roen said, reaching for the fruit bowl. "Have an apple, dear.”
    Kristin Cashore, Fire

    “While I was looking the other way your fire went out
    Left me with cinders to kick into dust
    What a waste of the wonder you were
    In my living fire I will keep your scorn and mine
    In my living fire I will keep your heartache and mine
    At the disgrace of a waste of a life”
    Kristin Cashore, Fire

    Sarah J. Maas
    “I'm not ill like that,” she groaned. He sat on her bed, peeling back the blanket. A servant entered, frowning at the mess on the floor, and shouted for help.
    “Then it what way?”
    “I,uh...” Her face was so hot she thought it would melt onto the floor. Oh you idiot. “My monthly cycles finally came back!”
    His face suddenly matched hers and he stepped away, dragging his hand through his short hair. “I-if...Then I'll take my leave,” he stammered, and bowed. Celaena raised an eyebrow, and then, despite herself, smiled as he left the room as quick as his feet could go without running, tripping slightly in the doorway as he staggered into the rooms beyond.”
    Sarah J. Maas, Throne of Glass

    “She moaned into her pillow. "Go away. I feel like dying."
    "No fair maiden should die alone," he said, putting a hand on hers. "Shall I read to you in your final moments? What story would you like?"
    She snatched her hand back. "How about the story of the idiotic prince who won't leave the assassin alone?"
    "Oh! I love that story! It has such a happy ending, too—why, the assassin was really feigning her illness in order to get the prince's attention! Who would have guessed it? Such a clever girl. And the bedroom scene is so lovely—it's worth reading through all of their ceaseless banter!”
    Sarah J. Maas, Throne of Glass

    Sarah J. Maas
    “I don't think you realize who you're dealing with."

    The man clicked his tongue, "If you were that good, you would be more than just Captain of the Guard."

    Chaol let out a low, breathy laugh. "I wasn't talking about me."

    "She's just one girl."

    Though his guts were twisting at the thought of her in this place, with these people, though he was considering every possible way to get himself and Celaena out of here alive, he gave the man a grin.

    "Then you're really in for a big surprise.”
    Sarah J. Maas, Crown of Midnight

    “Shahrzad,

    I've failed you several times. But there was one moment I failed you beyond measure. It was the day we met. The moment I took your hand and you looked at me, with the glory of hate in your eyes. I should have sent you home to your family. But I didn't. There was honesty in your hatred. Fearlessness in your pain. In your honesty, I saw a reflection of myself. Or rather, of the man I longed to be. So I failed you. I didn't stay away. Then later, I thought if I had answers, it would be enough. I would no longer care. You would not matter. So I continued failing you. Continued wanting more. And now I can't find the words to say what must be said. To convey to you the least of what I owe. When I think of you, I can't find the air to breathe. And now, though you are gone, there is no pain or fear. All I am left with is gratitude.
    When I was a boy, my mother would tell me that one of the best things in life is the knowledge that your story isn't over yet. Our story may have come to a close, but your story is still yet to be told. Make it a story worthy of you.
    I failed you in one last thing. Here is my chance to rectify it. It was never because I didn't feel it. It was because I swore I would never say it, and a man is nothing if he can't keep his promises.
    So I write it in the sky-
    I love you, a thousand times over. And I will never apologize for it.
    Khalid”
