“I felt the sharp edges of the lost memory through the copper walls and sensed the poison held there. Makin once told me that a man who's got no fear is missing a friend. With the thorn-patterned copper clutched uneasy in my fist I thought perhaps I had found that friend at last. I turned it one way, then the other. It held nothing good-- only me. And a man should be a little scared of himself surely? Of what he might do. To know thyself must be terribly dull.”
― Mark Lawrence, King of Thorns

“I don't really blame you for being dead but you can't have your sweater back.”
― Richard Siken, Crush

“You, with your gravity, considerateness, and caution were made to be the recipient of secrets. Besides, I know what sort of a mind I have placed in communication with my own; I know it is one not liable to take infection: it is a peculiar mind; it is an unique one. Happily I do not mean to harm it: but if I did, it would not take harm from me. The more you and I converse, the better; for while I cannot blight you, you may refresh me.”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

“That the battles are usually in her head does not lessen the bravery of it. The hardest ones always are.”
― William Ritter, Jackaby
