“marriage can, should, and must evolve. Don’t be alarmed, and don’t resent it. Be patient and kind, unflaggingly. In the long run, it’s the unasked-for hot-water bottles on winter nights that matter more than the extravagant gestures.”
― David Mitchell, The Bone Clocks

“We are a happy people, content with what life has given us. We don't covet anything that others have. And we are happy with who we are.”
― Morgan Rice, A Vow of Glory

“Anything easy isn’t hardly worthwhile, Angus. You’ll look back on this journey when you’re older and remember this lesson. Nothing is as meaningful as something you’ve worked hard for and won. This lesson will repeat itself over and over in your life-time.”
― Angela J. Townsend, Angus Macbain and the Island of Sleeping Kings

“The futility, dread, and exhaustion from the day before were gone. All that remained was a small twinge of fear that these dour feelings could return, that this exuberant elation was a temporary high, that if she stopped, if she thought on it too long, it would spiral away and leave her dark and moody once more.”
― Hugh Howey, Wool
