She was my destination. I was always on the way to Lena, even when I wasn't. Even when she wasn't on her way to me.
Kami Garcia
I don't know what happened. One minute, I was dreamin' about a fat piece of George Clooney and a hot date with some brown sugar pound cake, and the next thing I knew, the house was coming down on us.
Kami Garcia
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
Don’t think so. We all make our choices, and those choices have consequences.

Summer School: Never stop learnin' if you want to stop earnin'. I'm reasonably sure there G's in learning and earning.

We're gonna be late for English, and I gotta take these pantyhose off on the way. I'm gettin' a serious wedgie.

I don’t think Kitchen makes this. What’s it called again? Jell-O Surprise. Link grinned. What’s the surprise? Ridley examined the red gelatin more closely. What they put in it.

Lena made a face. She almost never wore makeup she didn't have to. You know, it's not like we all sign a contract with Maybelline when we turn thirteen.
Kami Garcia
No, I'm too busy trying to deflect your Power of Stupidity. But I don't think I'm strong enough.

I guess that’s the thing about a hero’s journey. You might not start out a hero, and you might not even come back that way. But you change, which is the same as everything changing. The journey changes you, whether or not you know it, and whether or not you want it to.
Kami Garcia
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?
Kami Garcia
Obviously the whole Wayward thing hasn't been explained to you properly. You don't have any superpowers. You can't leap over tall buildings in a single bound or fight Dark Casters with your magic cat. Basically, you're a glorified tour guide who's no better equipped to face a bunch of Dark Casters than Mary P. over here -Ridley

I was lost before I found her in my dreams, and she found me that day in the rain. I knew it seemed like I was always the one trying to save Lena, but the truth was she had saved me, and I wasn't ready for her to stop now.
Kami Garcia
Exactly. They're stupid. Who cares? I care. They bother me. And that's why I'm stupid. That makes me exponentially more stupid than stupid. I'm stupid to the power of stupid. She waved her hand. The moon blew away. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. I looked at her out of the corner of my eye.
Kami Garcia
She leaned into my shoulder. Maybe you don't have to be a Caster to have power. I pushed her hair behind her ear. Maybe you just have to fall for one.
Kami Garcia
Jewelry, I'm telling you. It's a thing. And love. And maybe danger.
Kami Garcia
It's hard to imagine a place like that really exists. People have been judging me my whole life.
Kami Garcia
And you can look up just about anything, even dirty pictures. Every now and again, the dirtiest pictures you ever saw would pop up on the screen. Imagine!
