“You look upon me, but you do not know me. I am older than the world, younger than time, permanent as the sky, and temporal as a dream. It is I who measures Traum's portents. I who Divines what is to come, for naught but the past can foretell the future.”
― Rachel Gillig, The Knave and the Moon

“This is precisely how one should be loved. Boldly, madly, shoulder to shoulder against the world and all its dangers.”
― Kalie Cassidy, In the Wake of the Ruined

“Here, in the Cliffs of Bellidine, where love and heartbreak were revered, there was no pretending the spectacle would be a balm over the calamity that had befallen them.”
― Rachel Gillig, The Knave and the Moon

“So I was a lowlife too. Some are going to say I was never anything better. Not even born in a hospital to a mom fixing to take me back to her mobile home, but born IN a mobile home, so that's like the Eagle Scout of trailer trash. Kids like me with our teen moms putting whiskey on our gums to shut us up., Coke in the baby bottle, we're the butt of the world. But I started out as decent as any kid, saying please and thank you, doing my homework, figuring out how to get smiled at.”
