A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES
❛ We need hope, or else we cannot endure. ❜
❛ Don’t feel bad for one moment about doing what brings you joy. ❜
❛ Pity those who don’t feel anything at all. ❜
❛ You look … better than before. ❜
❛ Was that a compliment? ❜
❛ We need hope, or else we cannot endure. ❜
❛ Well, good-bye for now. ❜
❛ Do you ever stop being so serious and dull? ❜
❛ Do you ever stop being such a prick? ❜
❛ I would have been gentle with you, though.. ❜
❛ When you healed my arm…You didn’t need to bargain with me. ❜
❛ You could have demanded every single week of the year. ❜
❛ It wasn’t entirely a question, but I needed the answer. ❜
❛ You can leave if you’re just going to insult me. ❜
❛ I could imagine very easily how much I would hate him. ❜
❛ That damned bitch is running me ragged. ❜
❛ I didn’t want you to fight alone. Or die alone.. ❜
❛ I didn’t want to be remembered for standing on the sidelines. ❜
❛ So I may roam wherever I wish until the dawn. ❜
❛ I’d long since stopped feeling sorry for myself about it. ❜
❛ I doubt you’ll be saying that when I take you to the Night Court. ❜
❛ You didn’t tell me this would happen. ❜
❛ You didn’t ask. So how am I to blame? ❜
❛ I’d want someone to hold my hand until the end. ❜
❛ To the people who look at the stars and wish. ❜
❛ To the stars who listen— and the dreams that are answered. ❜
❛ I fell in love with you, smartass, because you were one of us. ❜
❛ I was not a pet, not a doll, not an animal. ❜
❛ I was a survivor, and I was strong. ❜
❛ I would not, could not be broken. Tamed. ❜
❛ There are good days and hard days for me—even now. ❜
❛ Don’t let the hard days win. ❜
❛ My mate. Death incarnate. Night triumphant. ❜
❛ No one was my master— but I might be master of everything. ❜
❛ There are different kinds of darkness. ❜
❛ It becomes what the bearer wishes it to be, needs it to be. ❜
❛ There is the darkness that frightens, the darkness that soothes. ❜
❛ I am broken and healing, but every piece of my heart belong to you. ❜
❛ I wondered if love was too weak a word for what he felt, what he’d done for me. ❜
❛ My mate who had waited for me against all hope, despite all odds. ❜
❛ I realized—I realized how badly I’d been treated before. ❜
❛ I rarely went outside at night—usually, I was so tired from hunting. ❜
❛ I didn’t particularly care for them, anyway. ❜
❛ I wonder if I was looking for this place—looking for you all. ❜
❛ I knew you could take care of yourself. ❜
❛ I would have torn apart the world to get you back.. ❜
❛ I’m thinking that I want you so badly I can’t concentrate. ❜
❛ Many atrocities, have been done in the name of the greater good. ❜
A COURT OF WINGS AND RUIN
❛ Only you can decide what breaks you, Cursebreaker. Only you. ❜
❛ It’s a rare person to face who they are and not run from it - not be broken by it. ❜
❛ Remember that you are a wolf. And you cannot be caged. ❜
❛ I believe everything happens for a reason. ❜
❛ My own power would have consumed me long ago. ❜
❛ I believe that everything happened, exactly the way it had to… ❜
❛ Night Triumphant- and the Stars Eternal. ❜
❛ What we think to be our greatest weakness can sometimes be our biggest strength. ❜
❛ I will find you in the next world - the next life. And we will have that time. ❜
❛ You belong to all of us, and we belong to you. ❜
❛ When you erupt, girl, make sure it is felt across worlds. ❜
❛ We’re all a broken, in our own ways - In places no one might see. ❜
❛ One life may change the world. ❜
❛ Kindness can thrive even amongst cruelty. ❜
❛ My goal was bigger than revenge. ❜
❛ My purpose greater than personal retribution. ❜
❛ Words had become as foreign and hard to reach as the stars.. ❜
❛ We don’t have the luxury of good ideas—only picking between the bad ones. ❜
❛ I didn’t know how long my sisters and I lay there together. ❜
❛ Because I can’t stay away. ❜
❛ Leave this world… a better place than how you found it. ❜
❛ I hadn’t realized I was a villain in your narrative. ❜
❛ I would clean my blades, and wash the blood from my skin. ❜
