NOTE : I read the hardcover and the pages will be the same as that version. That's why I will also add the chapters.


Whatever you've heard about Caraval, it doesn't compare to the reality. It's more than just a game or a performance. It's the closest you'll ever find to magic in this world.                                         - Scarlett's grandmother; chapter 2, page 19


remember it's all a game. Dreams that come true can be beautiful, but they can also turn into nightmares when people won't wake up. - Jovan; chapter 8, page 77


When a cat sees a mouse, it will always chase, unless, perhaps, the cat is pursued by something larger, like a dog. We are much the same. The future knows what things we desire, unless there is something greater in our path that chases us away. - Nigel; chapter 15, page 149


No one is truly honest. Even if we don't lie to others, we often lie to ourselves.                                        - Nigel; chapter 15, page 153



Extra:

The poem of this year's game (chapter 13, page 130):

This girl was last seen with Legend.

If you catch her, you shall catch him as well.

Of course, you may have to venture throuh Hell.

But if you succeed you may find yourself rich.

This year's winner will be granted one wish.


Scarlett's clues (chapter 13, page 131):

This is your first clue on the road to find her.

The others will not be so easy to retrieve.

                                                          Some will make you question your sanity                                                               and all that you believe.

                                                                    Clue number two you'll discover                                                                        in the rubble of her departure.

Number three you must earn.

Number four will cost you something valuable.

And number five requires a leap of faith.

                                                                                Most of you will fail,                                                                                     but one will surely succeed.

                                                                         You have five nights to find the                                                                                                                                     four reaming clues and the the girl,                                                                      and Legend's wish will be yours
