“I know it may be impossible to believe now, when everything is dark and broken, but you will survive this pain, little one. Pain is a memory. You will live and you will struggle and you will find joy. And you will remember your family from this breath to your dying days, because love does not fade. Love is the stars, and its light carries on long after death.”
― Pierce Brown, Iron Gold

“Life without love is the worst prison of all.”
― Pierce Brown, Morning Star

“Do not let fear touch you. Fear is the torrent. The raging river. To fight it is to break and drown. But to stand astride it is to see it, feel it, and use its course for your own whims.”
― Pierce Brown, Iron Gold

“Against slavery, against tyranny, I would gladly go to my death, no matter whose freedom I was defending.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses
