Those Beyond the Wall (The Space Between Worlds #2)

by Micaiah Johnson

wanting to shift someone else’s boundaries is a burden and a threat, not a gift or a compliment.

Places where violence isn’t tolerated will never teach you how to deal with it, when it is avoidable, or how to execute it cleanly when you must.

As long as someone is stretching to reach you, you’d better bend to reach them.

Lying awake during perfectly good sleeping hours thinking.

I myself have been told my mentorship style falls somewhere between a snarling beast and a volcano threatening to explode.

“It feels good to criticize others into the ground when we are right and we know they are wrong. But it’s not good, it’s righteous, and the two seldom have anything to do with each other.”
