This Week's Topic is Top Ten Quotes I Loved From Books I Read In The Past Year Or So

My Choices

1. “Sometimes in the winter, when the fog rolled in and silenced the waves, it felt as if death had its fingers around my neck. Fingers like frostbitten twigs that made me ache inside.” 
― The Foxglove Killings by Tara Kelly

2. “I have come from the End of the World. From the River of Dreams, through the gauntlet and the Briar and the Deep Wyld, in order to stand before you today. I have but one request—to take my place at your side. To resume my duty as your knight, and to protect you and your kingdom for as long as I draw breath.” 
― The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa

3. “There weren’t many people in this world who would let you be vulnerable and still believe you were strong.” 
― The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line by Rob Thomas

4.“You love me. Real or not real?"
I tell him, "Real.” 
― Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

5. “Tearing down the rest of the world won't make you happy. Look inside yourself. Because finding who you were meant to be? What you were put into this world to do? That's what fills the emptiness. It's the only things that can.” 
― Splintered by A.G. Howard

6.“Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love. 
It did not end well.” 
― Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor

7.“Only survivors are allowed the luxury of sadness.” 
― Sunrise by Mike Mullin

8. “Lucky for you, I have another scheme. First I need a hundred ducks, but after that it will be pretty simple."
"What do you need the ducks for?"
"I´m going to put a whole bunch of them in a giant catapult and launch them over Aurimere," Kami said. "This will create a distraction. My message will be: Look at all the ducks I give.” 
― Unmade by Sarah Rees Brennan

9. “Hope can be a powerful force. Maybe there's no actual magic in it, but when you know what you hope for most and hold it like a light within you, you can make things happen, almost like magic.” 
― Daughter of Smoke & Bone by Laini Taylor

10.“No one knows what he or she is capable of until things are at their darkest.” 
― Splintered by A.G. Howard
