Maggie Stiefvater
You are made of dreams and this world is not for you.
Maggie Stiefvater, Call Down the Hawk

Maggie Stiefvater
“Adam Parrish was lonesome.
There is no good word for the opposite of lonesome. One might be tempted to suggest togetherness or contentment, but the fact that these two other words bear definitions unrelated to each other perfectly displays why lonesome cannot be properly mirrored. It does not mean solitude, nor alone, nor lonely, although lonesome can contain all of those words in itself.
Lonesome means a state of being apart. Of being other. Alone-some.
Adam was not always alone, but he was always lonesome. Even in a group, he was slowly perfecting the skill of holding himself separate. It was easier than one might expect; the others allowed him to do it. He knew he was different since aligning himself more tightly with the ley line this summer. He was himself, but more powerful. Himself, but less human.
If he were them, he would silently watch him draw away, too.
It was better this way. He had not fought with anyone for so long. He had not been angry for weeks.”
Maggie Stiefvater, Blue Lily, Lily Blue

Mhe varujta. Trust me as if my soul were yours.”
Susan Dennard, Windwitch

Sarah J. Maas
“You and I are nothing but wild beasts wearing human skins.”
Sarah J. Maas, Queen of Shadows

“He showed me his scars, and in return he let me pretend that I had none.”
Madeline Miller, Circe
