Reading for the 2nd time
“There are no monsters in the world, and no saints. Only infinite shades woven into the same tapestry, light and dark. One man’s monster is another man’s beloved. The wise know that.”
― The Winter of the Witch

“I did not know I was lonely, she thought, until I was no longer alone.”
― The Girl in the Tower
― The Girl in the Tower
“With the last bit of his strength, he tore his arm free and lashed out blindly, furiously, with all his terror and rage, with all the hope that had been born and died this day. Let me make a mark on this world before I leave it.”
― The Demon in the Wood
― The Demon in the Wood
“Every time you take one path, you must live with the memory of the other: of a life left unchosen. Decide as seems best, one course or the other; each way will have its bitter with its sweet.”
― The Girl in the Tower
― The Girl in the Tower
“What's your favorite color?" asked Sylvi.

"How can you not have one?"
Deep blue like the True Sea. Red like the roofs of the Shu temples. The pure, buttery color of sunlight—not really yellow or gold, what would you call it? All the colors you couldn't see in the dark.”
