in sisters, we seek strength; in brothers, we breed bravery; in family, we find faith; in each other— —we endure everything.

A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES

❛ We need hope, or else we cannot endure. ❜

❛ Don’t feel bad for one moment about doing what brings you joy. ❜

❛ Pity those who don’t feel anything at all. ❜

❛ You look … better than before. ❜

❛ Was that a compliment? ❜

❛ We need hope, or else we cannot endure. ❜

❛ Well, good-bye for now. ❜

❛ Do you ever stop being so serious and dull? ❜

❛ Do you ever stop being such a prick? ❜

❛ I would have been gentle with you, though.. ❜

❛ When you healed my arm…You didn’t need to bargain with me. ❜

❛ You could have demanded every single week of the year. ❜

❛ It wasn’t entirely a question, but I needed the answer. ❜

❛ You can leave if you’re just going to insult me. ❜

❛ I could imagine very easily how much I would hate him. ❜

❛ That damned bitch is running me ragged. ❜

❛ I didn’t want you to fight alone. Or die alone.. ❜

❛ I didn’t want to be remembered for standing on the sidelines. ❜

❛ So I may roam wherever I wish until the dawn. ❜

❛ I’d long since stopped feeling sorry for myself about it. ❜

❛ I doubt you’ll be saying that when I take you to the Night Court. ❜

❛ You didn’t tell me this would happen. ❜

❛ You didn’t ask. So how am I to blame? ❜

❛ I’d want someone to hold my hand until the end. ❜

A COURT OF MIST AND FURY

❛ To the people who look at the stars and wish. ❜

❛ To the stars who listen— and the dreams that are answered. ❜

❛ I fell in love with you, smartass, because you were one of us. ❜

❛ I was not a pet, not a doll, not an animal. ❜

❛ I was a survivor, and I was strong. ❜

❛ I would not, could not be broken. Tamed. ❜

❛ There are good days and hard days for me—even now. ❜

❛ Don’t let the hard days win. ❜

❛ My mate. Death incarnate. Night triumphant. ❜

❛ No one was my master— but I might be master of everything. ❜

❛ There are different kinds of darkness. ❜

❛ It becomes what the bearer wishes it to be, needs it to be. ❜

❛ There is the darkness that frightens, the darkness that soothes. ❜

❛ I am broken and healing, but every piece of my heart belong to you. ❜

❛ I wondered if love was too weak a word for what he felt, what he’d done for me. ❜

❛ My mate who had waited for me against all hope, despite all odds. ❜

❛ I realized—I realized how badly I’d been treated before. ❜

❛ I rarely went outside at night—usually, I was so tired from hunting. ❜

❛ I didn’t particularly care for them, anyway. ❜

❛ I wonder if I was looking for this place—looking for you all. ❜

❛ I knew you could take care of yourself. ❜

❛ I would have torn apart the world to get you back.. ❜

❛ I’m thinking that I want you so badly I can’t concentrate. ❜

❛ Many atrocities, have been done in the name of the greater good. ❜

A COURT OF WINGS AND RUIN

❛ Only you can decide what breaks you, Cursebreaker. Only you. ❜

❛ It’s a rare person to face who they are and not run from it - not be broken by it. ❜

❛ Remember that you are a wolf. And you cannot be caged. ❜

❛ I believe everything happens for a reason. ❜

❛ My own power would have consumed me long ago. ❜

❛ I believe that everything happened, exactly the way it had to…  ❜

❛ Night Triumphant- and the Stars Eternal. ❜

❛ What we think to be our greatest weakness can sometimes be our biggest strength. ❜

❛ I will find you in the next world - the next life. And we will have that time. ❜

❛ You belong to all of us, and we belong to you. ❜

❛ When you erupt, girl, make sure it is felt across worlds. ❜

❛ We’re all a broken, in our own ways - In places no one might see. ❜

❛ A thousand years. ❜

❛ One life may change the world. ❜

❛ Kindness can thrive even amongst cruelty. ❜

❛ My goal was bigger than revenge. ❜

❛ My purpose greater than personal retribution. ❜

❛ Words had become as foreign and hard to reach as the stars.. ❜

❛ We don’t have the luxury of good ideas—only picking between the bad ones. ❜

❛ I didn’t know how long my sisters and I lay there together. ❜

❛ Because I can’t stay away. ❜

❛ Leave this world… a better place than how you found it. ❜

❛ I hadn’t realized I was a villain in your narrative. ❜

❛ I would clean my blades, and wash the blood from my skin. ❜

On the surface, I was poised, cool, indifferent…The discrepancy between what I would show the world and the chaos I felt grew steadily more intense.

Louise Glück, from Proofs & Theories: Essays on Poetry (via luthienne)

susan leaving behind little mementos for her siblings whenever she leaves on long diplomatic trips: rings, necklaces, earrings or hair pins. something minimal but signifying that she always will return to them.

Again she had the odd feeling of being two people at the same time.

literature  quizzes .    repost  with  your  muse’s  results  for  the  following  quizzes .

homeric  epithet .   the great teller of tales . you are susan pevensie, great teller of tales. the greek hero odysseus had many epithets ascribed to him (others included “much-enduring,” “cunning,” and “man of twists and turns”), and this was one of them, so you’re in good company.

fatal  flaw .   you’re  in  love  with  the  idea  of  a  person .   you’ve  got  a  crush ,    but  the  other  person  is  simply  incapable  of  living  up  to  your  expectations .    you  love  the  version  of  them  that  you’ve  created  in  your  mind ,    and  not  the  person  they  really  are .    yikes .    you’re  going  to  gatsby  this  up  so  hard .    you’re  going  to  wind  up  dead  in  a  pool .    two  other  people  will  also  die .    everyone  will  be  disillusioned  with  the  american  dream .    it’s  a  messy  situation  all  around .    

greek  mythology  death .   wearing a wedding dress that is on fire. you might be wondering why you would do such a foolish thing, and the answer is you're going to get on the bad side of medea. why would you ever get on the bad side of medea? she doesn’t care about anything, least of all you. it all starts when medea’s dude-lover, jason, abandons her to be with you. so instead of having anything even resembling a calm, reasonable reaction, medea responds by giving you a cursed wedding dress that catches fire as soon as you put it on. some sources say the dress was actually coated in poison. either way, I think you’ll agree, it’s not good.
