Looking After Quotes

“I'm going to kill him for making you come to this,' I mutter under my breath as Dain greets the king with perfect manners.

'Xaden didn't make me come.'

'What?' My gaze jumps to his.

'He'd never ask this of me. Never ask it of anyone. But I told him I would keep you safe, and that's what I'm doing, keeping you safe.' He flashes a crooked smile.

'You're a good friend, Liam Mairi. 'I rest my head on his arm.

'You saved my life, Violet. The least I can do is grin and bear it through a fucking party.'

'I'm not sure I can grin and bear it.”
― Rebecca Yarros, Fourth Wing

“When I was grieving, I saw

that it was no one’s job to take care of me

however sad I got.

or that everyone’s job was to look after everyone.

But it’s not true.


And I gathered myself

and sent myself everywhere

and went free.”
― Ronna Bloom, In a Riptide
