“I used to fear it
meant that I had no real choices. Then I secretly hoped fate was real and
that you and I were fated, that by some miraculous chance I was your true
love. But now I don’t care if fate is real—because I don’t need it to decide
for me. I don’t need it to make this choice. I’ve made my decision, Jacks.
It’s you. It will always be you, until the end of time. And I’ll fight fate or
anyone else who tries to tear us apart- including you. You are my choice.
You are my love. You are mine. And you are not going to be the end of me,
Jacks.”
― Stephanie Garber, A Curse for True Love

“It takes courage to let down your armor, to welcome people to see you as you are. Sometimes I feel the same as you: I can’t risk having people behold me as I truly am. But there’s also a small voice in the back of my mind, a voice that tells me, “You will miss so much by being so guarded.”

“Aí notamos que a felicidade não é uma coisa abstrata, nem poética, nem complexa. Ela apenas está lá disponível e é sobretudo a ausência do irreversível. Mais cedo ou mais tarde acontece o que não pode ser desfeito. Você acorda e pensa: até ontem eu era feliz, e sabe que isso não terá mais conserto. Nada a fazer.”
― Carla Madeira, A natureza da mordida

“I am coming to love him, in two different ways. Face to face, and word to word.”
