“I love you like in the storybooks. I love you like in the ballads. I love you like a lightning bolt. I've loved you since the third month you came and spoke with me. I loved that you made me want to laugh. I loved the way you were kind and the way you would pause when you spoke, as though you were waiting for me to answer you. I love you and I am mocking no one when I kiss you, no one at all.”
― Holly Black , The Darkest Part of the Forest

“When I hear stars whispering at night I feel part of the eternal flow of time.”
― Durian Sukegawa, Sweet Bean Paste

“Instead of being afraid, I could become something to fear.”
― Holly Black, The Cruel Prince

“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone.”
― Madeline Miller, The Song of Achilles
