Bright I Burn Quotes

“Once I was hit by lightning and caught fire. My skin still wears the white scars like branches. I am a rare case. Once brightly I burned, I drew them all to me and consumed them all, unwittingly and wittingly, in my fire.”
― Molly Aitken, Bright I Burn

“The Franciscan has turned the city of my birth against me. He wants to feast on my shame, but I won't let him. He will merely hear me thunder and remember me with rage. In the weeks to come, he will look up, and the rim of the sky will be crimson, and he will wish I hadn't lit him on fire.”
― Molly Aitken, Bright I Burn
