Quotes by June Hur  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I would not love, unless I was loved first and loved the most. I would be nothing at all, if I could not be first.”
June Hur, The Red Palace

“Some dreams, I'd learned, were meant to fade away. And to let go of them didn't mean to let go of myself, but to release the life I'd imagined I wanted. The loss had grieved me at first, but in its fading away-slowly, very slowly-a new dream had bloomed.”
June Hur, The Red Palace

“If by any chance we do not meet again in this lifetime, then I will find you in the next—or as many lifetimes as it takes to see you again.”
June Hur, A Crane Among Wolves
