“I let her go
because I knew she could do better
and now she's gone
I wonder
if I should've
just been better.”
― Atticus Poetry, Love Her Wild

“If I cannot be better than them, I will become so much worse.”
― Holly Black, The Cruel Prince

“Can the hungry go on a hunger strike? Non-violence is a piece of theatre. You need an audience. What can you do when you have no audience?
People have the right to resist annihilation”
― Arundhati Roy

“Have I told you how hideous you look tonight?” Cardan asks, leaning back in the elaborately carved chair, the warmth of his words turning the question into something like a compliment.

"I can't.”
― Holly Black, The Cruel Prince
