"I suppose I shouldn’t have gone into this expecting a lore-infused book like Lore, for there’s very little Arthurian lore interwoven into it. If anything, it’s more of a treasure hunting book, à la The Gilded Wolves." — Apr 09, 2023 09:55PM

✨ Helena ✨’s Quotes

“There is truth in stories,” said Arthur. “There is truth in one of your paintings, boy or in a sunset or a couplet from Homer. Fiction is truth, even if it is not a fact. If you believe only in facts and forget stories, your brain will live, but your heart will die.”
― Cassandra Clare, Lord of Shadows

“we read, if we have the true reader’s zest and plate, not to grow more knowing, but to be less pent up and bound within a little circle,—as those who take their pleasure, and not as those who laboriously seek instruction,—as a means of seeing and enjoying the world of men and affairs.”
― Woodrow Wilson, On Being Human
