Changes (The Dresden Files, #12)

Faith is about what you do. It’s about aspiring to be better and nobler and kinder than you are. It’s about making sacrifices for the good of others—even when there’s not going to be anyone telling you what a hero you are.

Hope is a force of nature. Don’t let anyone tell you different.

“Shame, child, is for those who fail to live up to the ideal of what they believe they should be.”
