More quotes by Juliet Marillier
I thought of betrayal and how it came so easily - in a word, a glance, a gesture.
Juliet Marillier
Death, of course, should not be feared, but awaited with certain wonder. To die was to step across a threshold into a new world, unknown, unimaginable.
Juliet Marillier
Why should I be polished and improved like goods for sale? I might not even want to marry! And besides, I have many skills. I can read and write and play the flute and harp. Why should I change to please some man? If he doesn’t like me the way I am, then he can get some other girl for his wife.
Juliet Marillier
My advice to aspiring writers of fantasy trilogies or series is that each book needs two main plots. There's the 'big story', the over-arching grand plot of the entire series, and there is the complete-in-itself, one-book plot.
Juliet Marillier
Our strength comes from that magic, from the earth and the sky, from the fire and the water. Fly high, swim deep, give back to the earth what she gives you.
Juliet Marillier

Juliet Marillier
Trust is a thing you know without words.
Juliet Marillier
Brilliant minds make errors, brave souls falter, kind hearts leave scars. We are none of us perfect, but we're all perfectly human.
Juliet Marillier
With respect, said Red, and his voice had gone so quiet people hushed each other to hear him, my tale is yet unfinished you should hear me out. And it is her answer I have come to hear, not yours.
Juliet Marillier
As for religious faith, a lack of it shouldn't stop us from doing good deeds for their own sake.
Juliet Marillier
Because if I see you defeated, then I think I will see Alban defeated, and if that happens, none of us can go on. To guard you is to guard the heart of this land of ours.
Juliet Marillier
Trust can be a hard lesson hope still more difficult.
Juliet Marillier
Nobody expects you to exhibit godlike strength, excepting maybe yourself.
Juliet Marillier
My daughter, I said blankly. I see. Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought it took a man, as well as a woman, to make a child. Is this infant's father to be a crab, or a seagull maybe? Or were you planning to shipwreck some likely sailor on my doorstep, so I can make convenient use of him?
Juliet Marillier
Nothing comes without a price.
Juliet Marillier
For indeed you have a choice. You can flee and hide, and wait to be found. You can live out your days in terror, without meaning. Or you can take the harder choice, and you can save them.
Juliet Marillier
You may be your own best helper, if you choose the right path.
Juliet Marillier
As a novelist, I'm endlessly fascinated by human behavior and interactions.
