“Pain doesn’t get easier. You just have to get stronger.”
― Elizabeth Lim, Six Crimson Cranes

“My sadness had made me noteworthy. Beautiful. Had imbued in me a kind of dignity, a weight I could not uncarry.”
― Tahereh Mafi, An Emotion of Great Delight

“I'd thought, for so long, that this pain I clenched every day in my fist would be my sole possession, all I ever carried for the rest of my life. I'd forgotten I had two hands.”
― Tahereh Mafi, An Emotion of Great Delight

“When you have lived a life as long as mine, you come to understand that all gods, and all stories, are different names for the same thing. Beneath it all, there is one god with many faces, but always one god. There is one story with many variations, but always the same ending.”
― Signe Pike, The Lost Queen
