“Ignite, my love. Ignite.”
― Tahereh Mafi, Ignite Me

“For so many years I lived in constant terror of myself. Doubt had married my fear and moved into my mind, where it built castles and ruled kingdoms and reigned over me, bowing my will to its whispers until I was little more than an acquiescing peon, too terrified to disobey, too terrified to disagree. I had been shackled, a prisoner in my own mind.

But finally, finally, I have learned to break free.”
― Tahereh Mafi, Ignite Me

“I would rather be dead, than go back to being silent and suffocated.”
― Tahereh Mafi, Ignite Me

“Imagine me
master of my own universe
I am everything I ever dreamed of”
― Tahereh Mafi, Imagine Me

“What do you feel for me?”
Nyktos was silent and then tipped his head back to look at me. Eather pulsed intensely behind his pupils. “I feel too many things. Curiosity and excitement that remind me of what I think yearning must feel like. Need. Want,” he said roughly, his voice low. “Amusement at times. Sometimes, even anger. But always awe. I am always in awe of you. I could keep going, but most of all, what I feel is the closest thing to peace I’ve ever experienced.”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Light in the Flame
