The Ruined Quotes

“Death meets us in the darkness. There, in that moment, all the moments before it take shape to form the lines and contours of life, like a vessel on a potter's wheel.
For an instant, the measure of life can be seen.
Was it a life of emptiness? Was it misshapen, its cup filled from another's well? Was it cracked and leaking? Perhaps chipped from so many lessons learned?”
― Renée Ahdieh, The Ruined

“You can't hate something without understanding what it means to love.”
― Renée Ahdieh, The Ruined
