“I mean the kind of roots that happen privately between you and a certain place. Like you come to a place, and instead of planting a flag and saying mine, the place plants something in you. The place claims you, it knows your name and the crooked corners of your heart, and you've pledged yourself to it before you've even realized what's happening.”
― Sierra Simone, A Lesson in Thorns

“His eyes are no longer windows, but doors and mysteries and gates that I’ll never unlock. That privilege belongs to someone else.”
― Sierra Simone, A Lesson in Thorns

“Proserpina was last because Proserpina was always last. Not because she was disliked or because she was timid, but because she was dreaming on her feet while everyone else was walking.”
― Sierra Simone, A Lesson in Thorns

“One day, I'm going to carve your heart out and keep it as a souvenir. I promise.”
