41 " To be cold and incapable of pity is one thing; to have compassion and use it only when it's convenient is nothing less than evil. "
― Stacey Jay , Of Beast and Beauty
42 " I am her monster, and she is mine. "
43 " Seven, ten, fifteen, eighteen years old and still there is nothing finer than a blank sheet of paper, the white promise that the world can be what I make it. A magical place, an adventurous place, a possible place. Erasers take away the mistakes. Another coat of paint to cover them up. Black and red and purple and blue. Always Blue. "
― Stacey Jay , Juliet Immortal (Juliet Immortal, #1)
44 " Real love has little to do with falling. It's a climb up the rocky face of a mountain, hard work, and most people are too selfish or scared to bother. "
45 " One human life, a human heart freely given--it's the greatest gift anyone can give. "
46 " What? Is something wrong?""You're ominous-looking is all. Like a plague rider. Or Death's little brother.""Really? Are you scared?""Terrified.""Don't be afraid, Niklaaaaasssss. Death has not come for you tonight.""Stop that.""Why? Death only wantssss to be friendssss.""There's something damaged in that head of yours. "
― Stacey Jay , Princess of Thorns
47 " Acum, nu putem alege ce-o sa ni se intample in viata, dupa cum stim cu totii. Cu toate acestea, putem alege ce sa facem cu ce ni s-a dat. "
48 " We believe the only truth is a truth discovered. Not told. "
49 " There's no need to shout. The truth is as loud at a whisper as at a scream. "
― Stacey Jay , Romeo Redeemed (Juliet Immortal, #2)
50 " Never underestimate the allure of the Goodwill. "
51 " I am only a child, too innocent to realize that there is no salvation without darkness, no triumph that doesn't carry the seeds of its own destruction bouncing in its pocket. "
52 " Last night was what love is supposed to feel like, terrifying and beautiful and so close you're afraid you'll lose a piece of yourself, but you don't. You gain a piece of the person you love instead, a piece that makes you stronger and happier than you could have imagined possible. "
53 " My chest aches, but not with fear or sadness. With hope. With love. I love her. I love her, and it is better than anything else I can remember. "You found me. "
54 " Forever," I echo, and for the first time, I know that forever is a promise I can keep. I will love her forever, until the world crumbles and this memory is the only thing keeping me sane. "
55 " She wraps her arms around my neck, pulling me in tight, and I swear I feel my soul brush against hers. I expand beyond the boundaries of Dylan's body, out until I am the waves crashing on the beach, the sun shining in her hair, the wind that sweeps over our skin. I am everything and nothing and exist only because this girl presses her heart to mine. "
56 " Most people assumed Aaron was gay just because he was on the cheerleading squad. I, on the other hand, assumed a guy who would endure severe social stigma in the name of getting his hands under a bunch of girls' skirts when he lifted them into the air was probably pervier than your average bear. "

57 " I'll be a girl...pretending to be a boy...pretending to be a girl. The thought alone is enough to make me dizzy. "
58 " Hand to hand, no swords or staffs?""I figured that was the only fair way for us to fight." She crosses to the ladder and steps onto the top rung. "Seeing as I possess superior skill in armed combat."I snort and reach for my pants, suddenly more inspired about this sparring match. "In your dreams, runt.""In your nightmares," she says with a wink as she disappears down the ladder. "
59 " I sigh into her and give up the fight. My fingers thread through her hair, pulling her closer, knowing I'll never get enough of her. She intoxicates me, but not in the way that leaves a man senseless. She lifts me up like a breath of sweet air, like sun on my skin, like...god.No, not god. Like the idea of god, the one I imagined when I was a boy. "
60 " I want to woo you with food now that I've wooed you with words, song, and the magic of my interpretive dance. "
