“I have lived a thousand lives and I’ve loved a thousand loves. I’ve walked on distant worlds and seen the end of time. Because I read.”
― George R.R. Martin

“In books, I'd always felt like the Happily Ever After appeared as a new beginning, but for me, it didn't feel like that. My Happily Ever After was a strand of strung-together happy-for-nows, extending back not just to a year ago, but to thirty years before. Mine had already begun, and so this day was neither an ending nor a beginning.
It was just another good day. A perfect day. A happy-for-now, so vast and deep that I knew — or rather believed — I didn't have to worry about tomorrow.”
― Emily Henry, Beach Read

“Then maybe we should enjoy our happy-for-now.”
― Emily Henry, Beach Read

“All stories are made of both truths and lies, [...] What matters is the way that we believe in them.”
― Stephanie Garber, Once Upon a Broken Heart
