Best Quote:
"People talk about the pain of grief, but I don't know what they mean. To me grief is a devastating numbness, every sensation dulled."
"People talk about the pain of grief, but I don't know what they mean. To me grief is a devastating numbness, every sensation dulled."
— Allegiant, Veronica Roth
"There are so many ways to be brave in this world. Sometimes bravery involves laying down your life for something bigger than yourself, or for someone else. Sometimes it involves giving up everything you have ever known, or everyone you have ever loved, for the sake of something greater.
But sometimes it doesn't.
Sometimes it is nothing more than gritting your teeth through pain, and the work of every day, the slow walk toward a better life.
That is the sort of bravery I must have now."
— Allegiant, Veronica Roth
“Life is a book and there are a thousand pages I have not yet read.”
— Clockwork Princess, Cassandra Clare
"Your brain does amazing acrobatics when it doesn't want to believe something."
— Rose Under Fire, Elizabeth Wein
"Things don't magically take off and fly just because it's a little windy."
— Rose Under Fire, Elizabeth Wein
