"What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again." ~ Katniss Everdeen, The Hunger Games.

"My heart beats so hard it hurts. And I can't scream and I can't breathe, but I also feel everything. Every vein, and every fiber, every bone and every nerve." ~ Beatrice Prior, Divergent.

"Your optimimism was justified! Look at me. Look at us! This is different. I know it is, Daniel. I saw us in Helston and Tibit and Tahiti. We were in love, sure. But its nothing like we have now." ~ Lucinda Price, Fallen.

"The ferris wheel. The only thing in this whole wasteland of abandoned rides that isn't rotting or rusted." ~ Rhine Ashby, The Chemical Garden Trilogy: Fever


Being a hero is not about how much people you killed, its about the risks you've taken. About your story, your first ánd your last breathes. How you learn people that the pen is mightier than the sword, and even when you have no choices you can better use your mind instead of a weapon.  ❀
