From Blood and Ash (Blood and Ash, #1)

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

“Death is like an old friend who pays a visit, sometimes when it’s least expected and other times when you’re waiting for her. It’s neither the first nor the last time she’ll pay a visit, but that doesn’t make any death less harsh or unforgiving.”

“Nothing is ever simple. And when it is, it’s rarely ever worth it.”

I know another book I’ve read has a very similar quote, but I don’t remember what it is right now.
