“I fell so fast, so hard, and so completely. Not because love is blind, but because . . . it’s not. Love isn’t blind, it’s blinding. Glaring.”
― Amy Harmon, What the Wind Knows

“Fame is longing. Not yours, but the audience’s. A star is nothing more, nothing less, than the public face of private desire.”
― Frances de Pontes Peebles, The Air You Breathe

“That was the thing neither Roja nor the señoras understood. Sometimes what a story needed was not a girl who would do what the prince told her, who would content herself with meeting him only in the dark, who would not question why she must not open her eyes. Sometimes a story needed the girl who would find him among the crumbling stones where he did pretending all o fit was a castle. It needed the girl who took the prince’s orders and crushed them between her back teeth, who bound his wrists if that was what it took to set him free.”
― Anna-Marie McLemore, Blanca & Roja

“People think they have to say something, and it never makes me feel better.” “I know. I’ve decided language isn’t as advanced as we think it is. We’re still apes trying to express our thoughts with grunts while most of what we want to communicate stays locked in our brains.”
― Glendy Vanderah, Where the Forest Meets the Stars
