    Leigh Bardugo
    “I would come for you,” he said, and when he saw the wary look she shot him, she said it again. “I would come for you. And if I couldn’t walk, I’d crawl to you, and no matter how broken we were, we’d fight our way out together—knives drawn, pistol blazing. Because that’s what we do. We never stop fighting.”- Kaz Brekker”
    Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom

    Leigh Bardugo
    “You’re about to be rich, Kaz. What will you do when there’s no more blood to shed or vengeance to take?”

    “There’s always more.”

    “More money, more mayhem, more scores to settle. Was there never another dream?”

    He said nothing. What had carved all the hope from his heart? She might never know.

    Inej turned to go. Kaz seized her hand, keeping it on the railing. He didn’t look at her. "Stay,” he said, his voice rough stone. “Stay in Ketterdam. Stay with me.”

    She looked down at his gloved hand clutching hers. Everything in her wanted to say yes, but she would not settle for so little, not after all she’d been through. “What would be the point?”

    He took a breath. “I want you to stay. I want you to … I want you.”

    “You want me.” She turned the words over. Gently, she squeezed his hand. “And how will you have me, Kaz?”

    He looked at her then, eyes fierce, mouth set. It was the face he wore when he was fighting.

    “How will you have me?” she repeated. “Fully clothed, gloves on, your head turned away so our lips can never touch?”

    He released her hand, his shoulders bunching, his gaze angry and ashamed as he turned his face to the sea.

    Maybe it was because his back was to her that she could finally speak the words. “I will have you without armor, Kaz Brekker. Or I will not have you at all.”
    Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

    Charlotte Brontë
    “Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”
    Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
