“My own feelings are a hedge of briars that I can’t bring myself to touch. There are so many unhappy people, I just don’t want to find out that I am one of them.

― Chloe Michelle Howarth, Sunburn

“Let's have a toast. To the incompetence of our enemies.”
― Holly Black, The Cruel Prince

“How I will miss the horses.”
― Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

“He is half of my soul, as the poets say.”
