words same as always same as nothing when nothing is the same
Kami Garcia
The ways I could hurt her and hurt myself. Those two things were intertwined somehow. It's hard to explain, but when you were as closed off as I was the past few months, opening felt as wrong as stripping naked in church.

The guys were going down one road, and I was going down another.

She had the power to destroy. I had only seen the power to love. When you discovered both, who could figure out what to do with that?

Good for you, Ethan. That's what my poor mama would've said. Ma'am.

I need to talk to Lena There it was. I'd finally said it. The one thing that had kept me from being able to exhale all day. The thing that had made me feel like I couldn't sit down, like I couldn't stay. Like I had to get up and go somewhere, even if I had nowhere to go.
Kami Garcia

Kami Garcia
Mortals. I envy you. You think you can change things. Stop the universe. Undo what was done long before you came along. You are such beautiful creatures.
Kami Garcia
Some things are private, Ethan. Even for grown-ups.
Kami Garcia
Well? Is it true? Did she? Did she what? You know. Fall outta the crazy tree and hit every branch on the way down?
Kami Garcia

Kami Garcia
My life had taken a stranger turn than I could've ever imagined. What was I doing on this path? Where was I headed really? Who was I to take on a battle between powers I didn't understand— armed with a runaway cat, a uniquely bad drummer, a pair of garden shears, and an Ovaltine-drinking teen Galileo? To save a girl who didn't want to be saved?
Kami Garcia
I smiled at her, but she was already lost in thought, looking around the library as if it held all the answers to all our problems.
Kami Garcia
The more I learned about the world I thought I knew and all the ones I didn't, the more everything threaded together, leading everywhere and nowhere at the same time.
Kami Garcia
Funny thing is, until I met you all I wanted to do was to get as far away from here as I could. Kind of ironic, isn't it? Can't get much farther away than where Im going, and now I'd give anything to stay.
Kami Garcia
The right thing and the easy thing are never the same.

Coming into your powers can be a very confusing time. Perhaps there is a book on the subject. If you like, we can go see Marian. Yeah, right. Choices and Changes. A Modern Girl's Guide to Casting. My Mom Wants to Kill Me: A Self-Help Book For Teens.
