Now we just need to find someone who is close to the king but is really a spy for Mydogg. That should be easy. I could probably shoot an arrow out the window and hit one.

More quotes by Kristin Cashore

There was no helping her tears. For they would leave Po behind… She cried into his shoulder like a child. Ashamed of herself, for it was only a parting, and Bitterblue had not wept like this even over a death. ‘Don’t be ashamed,' Po whispered. ‘Your sadness is dear to me. Don’t be frightened. I won’t die, Katsa. I won’t die, and we’ll meet again.

You're beautiful this morning, Archer said, stopping before her, kissing her nose. You're impossibly sweet in my shirt. That might be but she felt like death. She would gladly make the trade how blissful it would be to feel impossibly sweet and look like death.

I’m suspicious of the notion of a single book that would benefit everyone to read.

I'm not going to wear a red dress, she said. It would look stunning, My Lady, she called. She spoke to the bubbles gathered on the surface of the water. If there's anyone I wish to stun at dinner, I'll hit him in the face.

Everybody was strange. In a fit of frustration, she scratched out strange and wrote the word CRACKPOTS in big letters.
Kristin Cashore
People want incongruous, impossible things.
Kristin Cashore
Why does everybody throw every troublesome thing into the river?
Kristin Cashore
My life is an apology for the life of my father.

That's interesting, Bitterblue said. You think a conscience requires fear?

Love is stupid. It has nothing to do with reason. You love whomever you love.

Teddy grinned again. 'Truths are dangerous,' he said. -'Then why are you writing them in a book?' -'To catch them between the pages,' said Teddy, 'and trap them before they disappear.' -'If they're dangerous, why not let them disappear?' -'Because when truths disappear, they leave behind blank spaces, and that is also dangerous.

It has been a hard lesson to learn, that greatness requires suffering.
Kristin Cashore
I hear you're supposed to be good at manipulating people. Try a little harder to make me like you, all right? I'm the queen. Your life will be nicer if I like you.
Kristin Cashore
That was what they did with themselves, those two Gracelings, along with a small band of friends: They stirred up trouble on a serious scale—bribery, coercion, sabotage, organized rebellion—all directed at stopping the worst behavior of the world’s most seriously corrupt kings.
Kristin Cashore
Normal. She wasn't normal. A girl Graced with killing, a royal thug? A girl who didn't want the husbands Randa pushed on her, perfectly handsome and thoughtful men, a girl who panicked at the thought of a baby at her breast, or clinging to her ankles.
Kristin Cashore
I love you, he said. You're more dear to my heart than I ever knew anyone else can be. And I've made you cry and there I'll stop. She was crying, but not because of his words. It was because of a certainty she refused to consider while she sat before him.
