“I am stronger than your god and older than your devil. I am the darkness between stars, and the roots beneath the earth. I am promise, and potential, and when it comes to playing games, i divine the rules, I set the pieces, and I choose when to play.”
― V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

“Sometimes, being told not to do something just makes us want it all the more. Sometimes, a little of what you crave is better than total abstinence.”
― Joanne Harris, The Strawberry Thief

“After that, the strawberry wood became my favorite place to go. In the summer I picked the fruit, and ran up and down the alleys of trees, and in autumn, collected acorns, and lay on my back watching the sky through the open branches. In the spring, I picked violets, and wild garlic by the riverbank. In winter I built tunnels under the barrows of brambles, and all year round I watched the well, and listened to its breathing, and sometimes dropped a coin or a stone into the water, and whispered into the darkness.”
― Joanne Harris, The Strawberry Thief

“Nikad poslije u životu dječaci
nisu bili tako vitki i lijepi. To bi netko trebao reći srednjoškolkama, zašto im to tajiti; ljubite
ih sad, ljubite ih što više, što nježnije, još malo, i imat ćete neke druge oči, a ne te zanesene.
Zanosite se do besvijesti, pod svaku cijenu, to je sve što vrijedi i nikad poslije, ništa što
dolazi poslije, neće to moći zamijeniti. To je ono za čim tragamo, ponoviti taj osjećaj, izazvati
ga, to je ono što nam do kraja nedostaje. Strahovita zaljubljenost u život, platonska i
strastvena, životu usprkos.”
― Olja Savičević Ivančević, Nasmijati psa
