Book cover for Nobody's Perfect
“But why couldn’t I have gotten it sooner? Shouldn’t I be old enough to not have to keep learning these lessons?” “Oh, no. That’s not how life works. When we stop learning, we die.”

J.K. Rowling
“The world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters.”
J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Sarah J. Maas
“Libraries were full of ideas—perhaps the most dangerous and powerful of all weapons.”
Sarah J. Maas, Throne of Glass

Leigh Bardugo
“Maybe there were people who lived those lives. Maybe this girl was one of them. But what about the rest of us? What about the nobodies and the nothings, the invisible girls? We learn to hold our heads as if we wear crowns. We learn to wring magic from the ordinary. That was how you survived when you weren’t chosen, when there was no royal blood in your veins. When the world owed you nothing, you demanded something of it anyway.”
Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom

Laini Taylor
“Once upon a time, an angel and a devil held a wishbone between them.

And its snap split the world in two.”
Laini Taylor, Days of Blood & Starlight

Leigh Bardugo
“I’ve been nothing but kind to you. I’m not some sort of monster.”
“No, you’re the man who sits idly by, congratulating yourself on your decency, while the monster eats his fill. At least a monster has teeth and a spine.”
Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom
