Quotes by June Hur  (?)

“I would not love, unless I was loved first and loved the most. I would be nothing at all, if I could not be first.”
June Hur, The Red Palace

“Some dreams, I'd learned, were meant to fade away. And to let go of them didn't mean to let go of myself, but to release the life I'd imagined I wanted. The loss had grieved me at first, but in its fading away-slowly, very slowly-a new dream had bloomed.”
June Hur, The Red Palace

“He moved my hand into his, and as our fingers intertwined, it occurred to me that love wasn’t all that I’d feared it to be. I had imagined that it was a wildfire that incinerated everything in its path. Instead, it felt as ordinary and extraordinary as waking up to a new day.”
June Hur, The Red Palace
