― Mary E. Pearson , The Kiss of Deception (The Remnant Chronicles, #1)
2 " It can take years to mold a dream. It takes only a fraction of a second for it to be shattered. "
3 " Pieces. A bit for someone here. A bit there. And sometimes they don't add up to anything whole. But you are so busy dancing. Delivering. You don't have time to notice. Or are afraid to notice. And then one day you have to look. And it's true. All of your pieces fill up other people's holes. But they don't fill your own. "
― Mary E. Pearson , The Adoration of Jenna Fox (Jenna Fox Chronicles, #1)
4 " Some things aren't meant to be known. Only believed. "
5 " It's other people who make us wise, and I haven't known nearly enough. "
― Mary E. Pearson , The Fox Inheritance (Jenna Fox Chronicles, #2)
6 " Faith and science, I have learned, are two sides of the same coin, separated by an expanse so small, but wide enough that one side can't see the other. They don't know they are connected. "
7 " Faith and science, I have learned, are two sides of the same coin, separated by an expanse so small, but wide enough that one side can't see the other. They don't even know they're connected. Father and Lily were two sides of the same coin, I've decided, and maybe I am the space in between. "
8 " Words, Kaden. Only lost unsaid words that added up to good-bye. "
― Mary E. Pearson , The Beauty of Darkness (The Remnant Chronicles, #3)
9 " If I had been shipped off to Dalbreck, there are valuable things I never would have learned. "
10 " It's the unknown that I fear, the bites of memories that still have no connections. "
11 " The world before us is a postcard, and I imagine the story we are writing on it. "
― Mary E. Pearson , The Miles Between
12 " I created an icicle sculpture in the snow. White on white. "
13 " If ever there were three mismatched riders, it was us- the crown prince of Dalbreck, the Assassin of Venda, and the fugitive princess of Morrighan. Sons and daughter of three kingdoms, each bent on domination of the other two. "
14 " You have to make your peace with Kaden, and he with you. You are not on opposite sides anymore. Do you understand? "
15 " Somewhere beyond all that, on an unseeable horizon, was Morrighan and all the people who lived there, going about their lives, unaware. My brothers. Pauline. Berdi. Gwyneth. And more patrols like Walther's who would meet their deaths, as unaware as I had once been. I want to go with you. Where I was going was no place for Natiya. It was hardly a place for me. "
16 " The seed of the gift may come, but a seedling that isn't nourished dies quickly. "
17 " Today was the day a thousand dreams would die and a single dream would be born.The wind knew. It was the first of June, but cold gusts bit at the hilltop citadelle as fiercely as deepest winter, shaking the windows with curses and winding through drafty halls with warning whispers. There was no escaping what was to come. "
18 " Snow. I wondered what it felt like. Aunt Bernette said it could be both soft and hard, cold and hot. It stung and burned when the wind pelted it through the air, and it was a gentle cold feather when it drifted down in lazy circles from the sky. I couldn't imagine it being so many things, and I wondered if she had taken license with her story as Father always claimed. I couldn't stop thinking of it.Snow. "
19 " The information. Every bit that of information that was ever in your brain. But the information is not the mind Jenna. That we've never accomplished before. What we've done with you is groundbreaking. We cracked the code. The mind is an energy that the brain produces. Think of a glass ball twirling on your fingertip. If it falls, it shatters into a million pieces. All the parts of a ball are still there, but it will never twirl with that force on your fingertip again. The brain is the same way. "
20 " The dictionary says my identity should be all about being separate or distinct, and yet it feels like it is so wrapped up in others. "
