Seanan McGuire
“It can be easy, in the end, to forget that children are people, and that people will do what people will do, the consequences be damned.”
Seanan McGuire, Down Among the Sticks and Bones

Seanan McGuire
“This, you see, is the danger of children: they are ambushes, each and every one of them. A person may look at someone else's child and see only the surface, the shiny shoes or the perfect curls. They do not see the tears and the tantrums, the late nights, the sleepless hours, the worry. They do not even really see the love, not really. It can be easy, when looking at children from the outside, the believe that they are things, dolls designed and programmed by their parents to behave in one manner, following one set of rules. It can be easy, when standing on the lofty shores of adulthood, not to remember that every adult was once a child, with ideas and ambitions of their own.

It can be easy, in the end, to forget that children are people, and that people will do what people will do, the consequences be damned.”
Seanan McGuire, Down Among the Sticks and Bones

“Someone with sharp enough eyes might see the instant where one wounded heart begins to rot while the other starts to heal.”
Seanan McGuire, Down Among the Sticks and Bones

Seanan McGuire
“She had tried to make sure they knew that there were a hundred, a thousand, a million different ways to be a girl, and that all of them were valid, and that neither of them was doing anything wrong.”
Seanan McGuire, Down Among the Sticks and Bones

Seanan McGuire
“There are moments that change everything, mired in the mass of more ordinary time like insects caught in amber. Without them, life would be a tame, predictable thing. But with them, ah. With them, life does as it will, like lightning, like the wind that blows across the castle battlements, and none may stop it, and none may tell it “no”.”
Seanan McGuire, Down Among the Sticks and Bones
