"Alone in chaos. Stark looked down into the endless depth of the cauldron."

"'A man who demands too much of himself makes other people uncomfortable. They figure if they can't live up to his own standards, they'll never be able to satisfy him, either,'"

"She did not know how to ease his mind. Stark was a man who would always be harder on himself than on anyone else."

"'He wasn't being consciously charitable, he just did it because it seemed like the right thing to do. That's the way he does things.'"

"'No one can turn a man into a hero, just as no one can turn him into a coward. A man has to do either one all by himself.'"

Actually so glad they pointed out how creepy and possessive Tony's behavior is for his STEPSISTER. (Not nearly enough, but still).

**For some reason GoodReads has 35 less pages listed for this book then the amount my physical copy has, so I am going to adjust the page number I am on accordingly.

"What amazed him was the dark emotion that had swirled to life within him. The lid that covered the cauldron of chaos had come off. The storm of loneliness that boiled out threatened to swallow him whole."

"Stark was well aware that he was the only one who was not inside the magic, glistening bubble that enclosed everyone else at the table. He stood on the outside, the eternal observer, and watched what was happening."

"This was no time to get dragged down into the chaos of emotion. There was too much at stake."
