Gita Ventyana

“War doesn't determine who's right. War determines who remains.”
― R.F. Kuang, The Poppy War

“The function of hate, as Sarai saw it, was to stamp out compassion—to close a door in one's own self and forget it was ever there. If you had hate, then you could see suffering—and cause it—and feel nothing except perhaps a sordid vindication.”
― Laini Taylor, Strange the Dreamer

“Hate is a waste of time. I'm far too busy to hate anything.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“But that's life. One long tunnel. There are lights along the way. Sometimes they feel spread farther apart than others, but they're there. And when you find one, it's okay to stand under it for a while to catch your breath before marching back into the dark.”
― Shaun David Hutchinson, The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza
