Quotes from the book ‘The Song of Achilles’ by Madeline Miller! Feel free to adjust as needed

“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone.”

“Name one hero who was happy.“

“They never let you be famous AND happy.”

“He is half of my soul, as the poets say.”

“When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”

“We were like gods at the dawning of the world, & our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but the other.”

“I am made of memories.”

“He waits for you.”

“He smiled, and his face was like the sun.”

“There are no bargains between lion and men. I will kill you and eat you raw.”

“He is a weapon, a killer. Do not forget it. You can use a spear as a walking stick, but that will not change its nature.”

“I will never leave him. It will be this, always, for as long as he will let me.”

“But what if he is your friend?”

“You ask a question that philosophers argue over”

“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. Do you think?”

“I wish he had let you all die.”

“Will you come with me?”

“We are all there, goddess and mortal and the boy who was both.”

“When I am dead, I charge you to mingle our ashes and bury us together.”

“It is right to seek peace for the dead. You and I both know there is no peace for those who live after.”

“I am air and thought and can do nothing.”

“I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”

“She wants you to be a god"

“He is more worth to you, perhaps “

“Now I know how to make you follow me everywhere.”

“If you have to go, you know I will go with you.”

“There is no honour in betraying your friends.”

“The sound was pure and sweet as water, bright as lemons.”

 it  would  be  unfair  to  not  allow  chris  the  same. it  didn't  make  the  choice  any  easier  to  make. there  would  definitely  be  no  going  back  from  this,  but  at  the  moment,  din  didn't  care. never  had  he  wanted  something  so  bad  and  the  only  thing  stopping  him  was  himself. his  religion  was  made  up  of  zealots  and  mandalorians  that  were  desperate  to  hold  on  to  something  that  could  they  could  never  reclaim. maybe  this  was  just  him  trying  to  rationalize  something  he  couldn't  get  back  from. but  this  wasn't  a  bad  thing. this  shouldn't  be  a  bad  thing. he  knows  his  feelings  for  chris  are  genuine  and  true.

 ❝    i  don't  know,    ❞  he  says,  honestly  --  but  if  it  was  up  to  him,  he'd  never  do  it. maybe  it  was  wrong  and  selfish  to  put  this  decision  in  the  jedi's  hands,  but  it  was  either  this  or  never. the  pause  continues  a  bit  too  long  and  the  grip  tightens  on  chris's  hands.
