More quotes by Ann Aguirre
. . . and I don’t expect him to suborn his life into mine any more than I would change my dreams for him. We’re not one soul, one being, however much we love each other.
Ann Aguirre
I wanted proof, not promises.
Ann Aguirre
Sometimes broken things heal crooked. The pieces didn’t fit anymore.
Ann Aguirre
Did he die well? No, I thought. Nobody did. They just died.
Ann Aguirre
Then in the interest of full honesty, I really wish you'd kiss me right now.
Ann Aguirre
Don’t let them see you weak.
Ann Aguirre
You could miss someone, but it did no good to fixate on loss. I wished I had the ready words of a Breeder or the ability to comfort with a soft touch. I didn't. Instead I had daggers and determination. That would have to do.
Ann Aguirre
I found it curious that people kept animals for companionship and not food. When I'd asked Mama Oaks when she planned to cook the fat creature that slept in a basket in the kitchen, her eyes almost popped out of her head. Since then, she'd kept her pet away from me, like she suspected I meant to turn it into stew. Clearly, I had a lot to learn.

He went in, lean and deadly, and ended the creature with a lightning-fast spike of his blade. It shrieked, likely altering the rest. The death call carried like a mournful song.
Ann Aguirre
I know you have bad news,” I say softly. “I’m ready for it.” But that’s not true. One is never ready. You just lie and say you are and hope you can take the hit on the chin without going down.
Ann Aguirre
It’s what you do that counts, not what you consider doing.
Ann Aguirre
I'll always want him. Until every sun goes dark in every sky, until I am nothing more than long-forgotten cosmic dust, I will want him. And even then I suspect my particles will long for his.
Ann Aguirre
Because it takes more courage to heal the world's hurts than to inflict them.
Ann Aguirre
There’s a reason I hate jigsaw puzzles. I don’t have the patience to find all the border pieces, especially when they’re all the same shade of gray.
Ann Aguirre
We’re bound by chains of love, but they don’t weigh us down. Instead, they allow us to be bigger and better than we are.
Ann Aguirre
Men can be very stupid. We cease to value what we have until it's gone, and only then do we realize the gold we glimpsed in distant hills pales as dross compared to treasure we had in hand.
Ann Aguirre
I never belonged anywhere until I met you.
Ann Aguirre
Every army has a beginning, no matter how humble.
Ann Aguirre
Brown bird welcomes white wave. Wander no more, dear traveler.
Ann Aguirre
I think my head's a minefield strewn with triggers, and maybe if I survive each explosion, what emerges from the wreckage will be me, really, truly me.
