The Legendary Scarlett and Browne Quotes

“Scarlett looked at him. It was a miracle of a kind: Albert always saw the best in people, even when they were trying to riddle him with bullets. All his life, the world had rubbed savagely against him, trying to wear him down. And what had happened? His innocence had been burnished by that rubbing—burnished till it shone. It was the hard, cruel things around him that had been worn away.”
― Jonathan Stroud, The Legendary Scarlett and Browne
