Juliet Marillier
As for religious faith, a lack of it shouldn't stop us from doing good deeds for their own sake.
Juliet Marillier

Juliet Marillier
You cannot poison what is between us with your foul words. She is my light in the darkness and Johnny is my pathway ahead.
Juliet Marillier
The most powerful weapon is hope.
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?

Nothing comes without a price.
Juliet Marillier
Hope is such a tenuous quality. To feel it and then to be denied what one most longs for ... Better, surely, not to hope at all, than to open the heart to a hope that is impossible.
Juliet Marillier
I wonder how it takes you, that moment when everything turns to shadows. - Somerled.
Juliet Marillier
She seemed fragile like a moonflower – destined to bloom for a single lovely night, and then to fade and fall.
Juliet Marillier
She had sacrificed her childhood to save her brothers she loved her family above all else, and her spirits yearned to return home once more, to the wild forest and the land of mystic tales and ancient spirits whence he had taken her. That was the place of her heart, and if he loved her, he must let her go.
Juliet Marillier
Become my friend and you embrace a nightmare.
Juliet Marillier
My feet will tread soft as a deer in the forest. My mind will be clear as water from the sacred well. My heart will be strong as a great oak. My spirit will spread an eagle's wings, and fly forth.
Juliet Marillier
My world was changing, and I was not ready for it.
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
There was so much of beauty here: the neat, small tracks of a foraging creature, stoat or marten the inticate tracery of a skeleton leaf, still clinging vainly to its parent tree as, little by little, time stripped it of its substance, leaving only the delicate remembrance of what it had been.
Juliet Marillier
The future was in our own hands. If we wanted a world where such things were possible, it was for us to make it.
