She kisses my cheek. 'Then you must live for more.”
― Pierce Brown, Red Rising

“When a mother loses a daughter, she grieves over the future that her daughter will never have, but she can take solace in memories of close-knit days. But when your daughter runs away, it is the fond memories that have been laid to rest; and your daughter's future, alive and well, recedes from you like a wave drawing out to sea.”
― Amor Towles, Rules of Civility
