― Melissa Albert, The Hazel Wood

“I treasure the books that I can read repeatedly and happily, as well as those that deprive me of sleep because I simply can’t set them down.”

“Aber Wut ist nicht dasselbe wie Hass. Hass will Zerstörung, Wut will Veränderung. Hass ist Destruktiv, Wut ist Produktiv.”

“Life was a big thing to live without a map.”
