“You know what a hero is? It's what you're left with when you cut away half the story, when you spill blood, then hide it under the rushes Wars aren't just glory and courage, they're sickness and starvation, a hundred suffering victims for every warrior who rides home triumphant. Heroism's a lie we tell ourselves so we can live with the loss. There are no heroes in the real world.”

“There are endings. There are beginnings. Sometimes they coincide, with the ending of one thing marking the beginning of another. But sometimes there is a simply a long space after an ending, a time when it seems everything has ended and nothing else can ever begin.”

“Fucking shit! Of all the fucked-up, shitty, damn fucking assholes...Why?”
― Ilona Andrews, This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me

“Food is like a wild animal. It can sense your fear or your anger. If you cook stressed out, your food will taste stressed out. If you cook happy, your food will be happy too.”
