“I didn't have to go on the internet and look it up to know that a family wasn't just something that brought you comfort and security. It provided some warmth in an otherwise cold and often harsh and cruel world. It gave you hope, especially when events or actions of others weighed you down with depression and defeat. All the rainbows in our lives originated with something from our families.”
― V.C. Andrews, Bittersweet Dreams

“There are monsters in the sea.”

“Oh, though: I should know by now that you can't always trust feelings-which is especially problematic when you can't even trust the things that masquerade as facts.

Two roads diverge in a wood, and I-I take the one less traveled by.”
― Kayla Olson, The Sandcastle Empire

“But maybe we aren't the sum of our mistakes or our genes or our circumstances or our fears. Maybe, in the end, we're the product of our choices. And maybe it's when we hold someone's life in our hands - the choices we make in those moments - when we get a taste of what we're truly made of.”
― Elle Cosimano, Nearly Found
