Lois McMaster Bujold
“One learns better than to hand one’s choices to fear. With age, with every wound and scar, one learns.”
Lois McMaster Bujold, Paladin of Souls

Maria Turtschaninoff
“I saw the same thing in him as I had seen in the eyes of the men who stole me and my sisters that night, and in the eyes of the men who had sold me for silver and gold: to them I am a thing.”
Maria Turtschaninoff, Naondel

Mimi Matthews
“I've been miserable for more years than I can count... I have suffered, too.... A girl requires more than expensive things. She needs love and acceptance. She needs to know she has value. Being your daughter made me in to a shadow. Much longer, I fear I would have vanished.”
Mimi Matthews, The Belle of Belgrave Square

Ta-Nehisi Coates
“My work is to give you what I know of my own particular path while allowing you to walk your own.”
Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

Lois McMaster Bujold
“It is imperfect. So are all things trapped in time. You are brilliant, nonetheless. How fortunate for Us that We thirst for glorious souls rather than faultless ones, or We should be parched indeed, and most lonely in Our perfect righteousness. Carry on imperfectly, shining Ista.”
Lois McMaster Bujold, Paladin of Souls
