“Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

“People who say “sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me” don’t understand how words can be stones, hard and sharp-edged and dangerous and capable of doing so much more harm than anything physical.”
― Seanan McGuire, Middlegame

“And that’s how I fell in love and lost it again. How my heart never stopped searching. They say a story is only as good as its ending. Some heroes look death in the face for one chance at love. Others stand up to fate and win. But I like the ones no one bothers to write down, where the hero flaunts the demands of fate and says fuck it. He just goes home, opens his front door, and walks into the arms of the ones he loves. Because in the end, that’s all he was ever fighting for.”
― Riley Nash, Show Me Wonders

“Sometimes, the thing we want is right in front of us, and we’re the last ones to see it.”
― Christina Lauren, My Favorite Half-Night Stand
