“Are you so accustomed to being used that you don’t realize when it’s happening, as long as it’s done kindly?”
― Hannah F. Whitten, The Foxglove King

“We haven’t even been married for twenty-four hours. Praying mantises have longer honeymoon periods.”
― Ali Hazelwood, Bride

“You have never been unlovable. You were just waiting for someone who will love you for who you are, not for who they want you to be. I can do that, if you'll let me.”
― Brynne Weaver, Butcher & Blackbird

“You think, but you don’t know. You don’t know anything about what it’s like to find your other half, I would take anything she chose to give me—the tiniest fraction or her entire world. I would take her for a single night knowing that I’ll lose her by morning, and I would hold on to her and never let go. I would take her healthy, or sick, or tired, or angry, or strong, and it would be my fucking privilege. I would take her problems, her gifts, her moods, her passions, her jokes, her body—I would take every last thing, if she chose to give it to me.”
― Ali Hazelwood, Bride
