Simone Quotes

“Simone! Are you all right? Simone!"
And a voice, grunting with pain, says, "Todd?"
And-
And it ain't Simone's voice.
The smoke starts to clear.
And it ain't Simone.
"You saved me, Todd," says the Mayor, lying there, bad burns all over his face and hands, his clothes smoking like a brush fire. "You saved my life."
And his eyes are full of wonder of it-
That in the rush of the explozhun the person I chose to save-
The one I chose without even thinking-
(without there even being time for him to control me-)
(no time for him to make me do it-)
Was the Mayor.”
― Patrick Ness, Monsters of Men

“But confidence bred confidence, that’s what her dad had always told her back in the days when she’d been a skinny, flat-chested nerd girl with a boy-intimidating vocabulary and no hope of being asked to the prom.”
― Megan Hart, Every Part of You: Resists Me

“He had been her sun, the star she circled endlessly. Helpless against the gravity she’d been unable to fight. She’d flown too close and melted her wings made of wax. She’d fallen. Maybe she’d never been meant to fly.”
― Megan Hart, Every Part of You: Takes Me

“Simone couldn't move as she caught the hot look in his eyes. This was it and she knew it. She was lost to him. How could she deny him after all he'd done to protect her?
"Simone!"
She jumped at Jesse's shrill call.
He popped into the room, then screamed like a girl. "I'm sorry. You two continue."
Xypher let out a low, evil growl as he hung his head down and shook it over her. "I don't know about you, but that just killed my mood. The only thing to do more damage would would be to see Jesse naked. That would probably make me impotent for eternity. I think we just found the perfect birth control.”

It feels like throwing someone you love out to sea and then praying they float on their own, knowing they might well drown and you'll have to watch.”
― Taylor Jenkins Reid

― Eduardo Lalo, Simone

“Simone and I had both formally rejected the church. As a Catholic, let me tell you--that is not a decision that was made lightly. We knew that we were condemning our souls to eternal torment when we officially decided to turn our backs upon God. We were actively choosing the fire. However, God had turned his back on Simone and I long ago. He did not love us. He let us starve in the streets; He took our parents from us when we were too young to properly fend for ourselves. Our very love for each other was an abomination to Him. All that Simone and I had was one another. How could we be expected to give each other up for a God who cared nothing for us?”
― Lioness DeWinter, Corinthians
