Redemption Quotes

“His scent faded the farther away I ran. That was good. It was good he wasn’t anywhere around me, since when he was, I couldn’t decide if I should kiss him or kill him.”
― Rye Brewer, Redemption

“I’d learned the hard way that sometimes friends can become enemies in the blink of an eye, so why tell them your strengths or weaknesses?”
― Rye Brewer, Redemption

“As I said the words, I felt how true they were. He wasn’t the sort of person who could stand back and look the other way when there was injustice. Even if he’d have to look over his shoulder for a long time to come, he’d done it. It had been worthwhile to him. “You’re the same way, you know. You have a way of taking things on like they’re your own problems. You shoulder all these burdens. You take care of everyone around you.”
― Rye Brewer, Redemption

“Oh, right,” he whispered with a smile. “I’m so glad you found me.” “You’re sure about that? I might have killed you, you know.” “But you didn’t. Because it wasn’t meant to be that way.” “So you believe in fate? That’s unusual for those of our kind.” “I believe things happen the way they’re supposed to happen. You don’t live as long as I have and see what I’ve seen without believing there has to be something else at work. It’s not random. You weren’t randomly sent my way. I felt it immediately.” His eyes changed, narrowing slightly. “Didn’t you?” “Honestly? Yes, I did.” It felt strange to admit, but I couldn’t deny the way I felt. There was something between us from the start—otherwise, why hadn’t I killed him when I had the chance? I could have.”
