Kristin Cashore Quotes

For a group of people who claimed to be concerned for her safety, they did seem to have developed rather a habit of encouraging uprisings against monarchs Picture Quote #1

I hear you’re supposed to be good at manipulating people. Try a little harder to make me like you, all right? I’m the queen. Your life will be nicer if I like you Picture Quote #1

Ivan had contrived somehow in the dark of night to replace every watermelon in the watermelon patch with a gravestone, and every gravestone in the engraver’s lot with a watermelon Picture Quote #1

It was just that she had the need to tell him something honest, something honest and unhappy, because cheerful lies tonight were too depressing and too sharp, turning in on her like pins Picture Quote #1

He made her drunk, this man made her drunk; and every time his eyes flashed into hers she could not breathe Picture Quote #1

A book that bores me to tears is a book that neglects character building and quality of prose Picture Quote #1

I’m suspicious of the notion of a single book that would benefit everyone to read Picture Quote #1

If we’re to be judged by our parents and grandparents, then we all may as well impale ourselves upon jagged bits of rock Picture Quote #1

Then she marched to the pillows and beat them mercilessly until they lay puffed out like obedient clouds Picture Quote #1

They seemed no closer to the tops of the peaks that rose before them. It was only by looking back, to the forest far below, that she knew they’d climbed Picture Quote #1

Things don’t ever stay the same. Natural beginnings come to natural or unnatural ends Picture Quote #1

A man who fights you as he does is no better than an opportunist and no worse than a thug Picture Quote #1

And what was it about the dark that made her question things she’d never questioned before, in the day Picture Quote #1

I’m not good at love. I’m like a barbed creature. I push everyone I love away Picture Quote #1

She’d lost her fury, somewhere, as they’d talked. She didn’t feel it anymore. She wished she did, because she preferred it to the emptiness that had settled in its place Picture Quote #1

Go safely. Go safely, she thought to him. what a silly, empty thing it was to say to anyone, anywhere Picture Quote #1

She didn’t want to go far, just out of the trees so she could see the stars. They always eased her loneliness. She thought of them as beautiful creatures, burning and cold; each solitary, and bleak, and silent like her Picture Quote #1

Everyone was willing to take some small risk to lessen the damage of their ambition and disorder and lawlessness Picture Quote #1

At least her last words to him had been words of love. But she wished she’d told him just how much she loved him. How much she had to thank him for, how many good things he had done. She hadn’t told him nearly enough Picture Quote #1

Something caught in her throat at this second thanks, when she’d threatened him so brutally. When you’re a monster, she thought, you are thanked and praised for not behaving like a monster. She would like to restrain from cruelty and receive no admiration for it Picture Quote #1

... you could not measure love on a scale of degrees, and now she understood that it was the same with pain. Pain might escalate upward and, just when you thought you’d reach your limit, begin to spread sideways, and spill out, and touch other people, and mix with their pain. And grow larger, but somehow less oppressive. She had thought herself trapped in a place outside the ordinary feeling lives of people; she had not noticed how many other people were trapped in that place with her Picture Quote #1
