    Cassandra Clare
    “You speak of sacrifice, but it is not my sacrifice I offer. It is yours I ask of you," he went on. "I can offer you my life, but it is a short life; I can offer you my heart, though I have no idea how many more beats it shall sustain. But I love you enough to hope that you wil not care that I am being selfish in trying to make the rest of my life - whatever length - happy, by spending it with you. I want to be married to you, Tessa. I want it more than I have ever wanted anything else in my life." He looked up at her through the veil of silvery hair that fell over his eyes. "That is," he said shyly, "if you love me, too.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    Sarah J. Maas
    “Celaena walked and walked, until she found herself by the tree-lined shore of a lake, glaringly bright in the midday sun. She figured it was as good a spot as any as she crumpled to the mossy bank, as her arms wrapped tight around herself and she bowed over her knees.
    There was nothing that could be done to fix her. And she was...she was...
    A whimpering noise came out of her, lips trembling to hard she had to clamp down to keep the sound inside.
    --
    She vaguely felt the light shifting on the lake. Vaguely felt the sighing wind, warm as it brushed against her damp cheeks. And heard, so soft it was as if she dreamed it, a woman's voice whispering, Why are you crying, Fireheart?...
    "Because I am lost," she whispered onto the earth. "And I do not know the way.”
    Sarah J. Maas, Heir of Fire

    Cassandra Clare
    “Say something in Mandarin,” said Tessa, with a smile.
    Jem said something that sounded like a lot of breathy vowels and
    consonants run together, his voice rising and falling melodically: “Ni
    hen piao liang.”
    “What did you say?” Tessa was curious.
    “I said your hair is coming undone — here,” he said, and reached out
    and tucked an escaping curl back behind her ear. Tessa felt the blood
    spill hot up into her face, and was glad for the dimness of the
    carriage. “You have to be careful with it,” he said, taking his hand
    back, slowly, his fingers lingering against her cheek.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

  • #24
    Cassandra Clare
    “She smiled at him. “How did you know just what I’d want to see?”
    “How could I not?” he said. “When I think of you, and you are not there, I see you in my mind’s eye always with a book in your hand.” He looked away from her as he said it, but not before she caught the slight flush on his cheekbones. He was so pale, he could never hide even the least blush, she thought — and was surprised how affectionate the thought was.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

  • #25
    “When I was a little girl I used to read fairy tales. In fairy tales you meet Prince Charming and he's everything you ever wanted. In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought. You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he's not easy to spot; he's really funny, and he makes you laugh, and he has perfect hair.”
    Taylor Swift

  • #27
    Emily Brontë
    “The entire world is a collection of memoranda that she did exist, and that I have lost her.”

  • #28
    Sylvia Plath
    “I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet and another fig was a brilliant professor, and another fig was Ee Gee, the amazing editor, and another fig was Europe and Africa and South America, and another fig was Constantin and Socrates and Attila and a pack of other lovers with queer names and offbeat professions, and another fig was an Olympic lady crew champion, and beyond and above these figs were many more figs I couldn't quite make out. I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn't make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet.”
    Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

    “ছোট্ট সুপ্রভা। তোমার প্রসঙ্গ অপেক্ষা উপন্যাসে আর আসবে না। কারণ তোমার জন্য কেউ অপেক্ষা করে থাকবে না। মৃত মানুষের জন্য আমরা অপেক্ষা করি না। আমাদের সমস্ত অপেক্ষা জীবিতদের জন্য। এই চরম সত্যটি না জেনেই তুমি হারিয়ে গেলে।”
    হুমায়ূন আহমেদ (Humayun Ahmed)

    Cassandra Clare
    “You know that feeling,” she said, “when you are reading a book, and you know that it is going to be a tragedy; you can feel the cold and darkness coming, see the net drawing tight around the characters who live and breathe on the pages. But you are tied to the story as if being dragged behind a carriage and you cannot let go or turn the course aside.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Princess

  • #31
    Baek Se-hee
    “Books never tire of me. And in time they present a solution, quietly waiting until I am fully healed.”
    Baek Se-hee, I Want to Die But I Want to Eat Tteokpokki
