“This is the life I’ve made for myself, and I want it in a way I haven’t wanted anything else I can remember. It is a wanting that is quiet, and steady, and deep as the beat of my heart.”
― Intisar Khanani, Thorn

“Porque el odio da fuerzas para seguir, mantiene la estructura frágil, entreteje los hilos para que el vacío no lo ocupe todo.”
― Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

“¿Cuántos corazones tienen que ser guardados en cajas para que el dolor se transforme en otra cosa? Pero el dolor, intuye, es lo único que lo hace seguir respirando. Sin la tristeza, no le queda nada.”
― Agustina Bazterrica, Tender Is the Flesh

“Meeting you was a disaster.”
She raised a brow. “Thank you.”
Djel, he was terrible at this. He stumbled on, trying to make her understand. “But I am grateful for that disaster. I needed a catastrophe to shake me from the life I knew. You were an earthquake, a landslide.”
“I,” she said, planting a hand on her hip, “am a delicate flower.”
“You aren’t a flower, you’re every blossom in the wood blooming at once. You are a tidal wave. You’re a stampede. You are overwhelming.”
― Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom
