We are all descended from monsters.

Motherhood didn't make you stronger; it made you vulnerable and afraid of what death could steal from you.

If you want to remain at liberty, I suggest you not antagonize your defenders.

No man easily admits that he is afraid.

The heart makes its choices without weighing the consequences. It doesn't look ahead to the lonely nights that follow.

Sometimes, the stars line up, the gods smile, and love gets a fighting chance. Just a chance. That's all it can really hope for. No guarantees, no certainties

Evil doesn't die. It never dies. It just takes on a new face, a new name. Just because we've been touched by it once, it doesn't mean we're immune to ever being hurt again. Lightning can strike twice.
