Darkfever (Fever, #1)

by Karen Marie Moning

At least when you were terminal you knew the pain was going to end eventually. But there was no light at the end of my tunnel. Grief was going to devour me, day into night, night into day, and although I might feel like I was dying from it, might even wish I was, I never would. I was going to have to walk around with a hole in my heart forever.

Womankind’s greatest mistakes: falling in love with a man’s potential. We so rarely share the same view of it, and even more rarely care to achieve it. Stop pining for the man you think I could be—and take a good, long, hard look at the one I am.”

There are really only two positions one can take toward anything in life: hope or fear. Hope strengthens, fear kills.

you can discover just as much from what people don’t say to you, as what they do.

It’s often only in the lies we refuse to speak that any truth can be heard at all.
