I felt like he'd pushed me, like I was falling and I needed him to reel those words back in to keep me standing straight.

― Alwyn Hamilton, Rebel of the Sands

“To some it might’ve seemed callous, the way she boxed up her pain and set it aside, but I knew her well enough now to understand. She had a heart the size of France, and the lucky few whom she loved with it were loved with every square inch—but its size made it dangerous, too. If she let it feel everything, she’d be wrecked.
