Fearlessness and bravery are not the same, for in order to be brave you must first understand the danger, but you can be fearless and also a fool.
“My mother, sometimes she says that everybody in the world is a donkey with the heart of a lion. Everybody. Only most people don’t ever discover it—they don’t have to, they get along all right just being donkeys. But it’s there, always, if you really need it. If you really want to find it. If you look for it.”

“You are not nothing," he whispered. "It is I who come to you crawling, a rabid dog hungry for your attention. An unworthy peasant grabbing at your hem. It is you who refuses me always. You who remain unswayed by my power and beauty and might. You who insults and soothes me. You are the one in power, and you have brought me to my knees.”

“Rarely were women hailed as heroes or were ballads sung for them. Rarely were they written of in epics. Nobody ever looked at the wives who raised families while men fought wars. Nobody ever spoke of the women who took up the jobs of men while they marched into battle. Nobody ever spoke of the women who donned the dress of their brothers and became national heroes.”

“...and tell me if you see me celebrating. Look at me and tell me if I look whole. I have never experienced a loss that had the potential to unravel me. I have never felt a love so consuming it threatened to undo me. You are my every thought. You are my reason for existing. I cannot fathom a life without you. And I never want to be apart from you again. I would forsake my throne, the Underworld and all my dark creations if it mean that you'd be mine. There is no price that I would not pay to be with you.”
