1 " A bond between souls is ancient - older than the planet. "
― Dianna Hardy , The Witching Pen (The Witching Pen series, #1)
2 " At the sound of my name, those two worlds on either side of me collide, and my lips meet his. Time ceases to exist, and so, apparently does any logic that my mind is hanging on to. Logic would say that this is insane; every other fibre of my being says it's right. "
― Dianna Hardy , 'Til Death Do Us Part (an adult retelling of The Little Mermaid)
3 " He took the pen and book from her and faltered.“Just write anything – anything trivial that won't matter if it comes to pass.”“Erm...” God, he was useless at this.Elena's hair turned blue.“Hey!”“What?”“I don't want blue hair! What the hell did you write that for?”“It seemed trivial.”“Blue hair – blue? That's trivial? What if I can't undo it?”Karl stared at her blankly. His throat went dry. He felt like a total dickhead, but writing really wasn't his strong point, so he went for humour instead and flashed her a grin.“I was going to write that all your clothes fall off, but figured you may have a problem with that. This was the second thing that came to mind.”(Karl and Elena) "
4 " Maybe I should be still; accept my fate. But I have tasted freedom, known love – I have had choice and learnt what it is to have a human heart, not just a compliant one. "
5 " The thought of talking about it made Pueblo's gut ache, but then he thought of everything that Amy had been through – not that she'd told him her version yet. She had balls of steel, he thought with a smile. And what did he have? Three pairs of loin cloths going crisp on the radiator. "

6 " It took Pueblo a few seconds to take in his surroundings. The first thing he realised was that he felt bruised all over; the second was that his clothes were waterlogged, even more than before, from the quicksand; and the third, was that he had landed on his front and was lying on a large, uncomfortable stone.No, wait… In his disoriented state, he shifted his weight. The stone didn't move. He was lying on his own fucking erection. "
7 " Til death do us part....The words wrap around my mind like soft, silk binds, and I cherish the imagery. Eternity can only be with this man – there will never be another who knows me so well. "
8 " ...we're not eighteen anymore. We've lived. We've created things that last – things of joy, and things of burden. "
― Dianna Hardy , Summer's End (Once Times Thrice, #2)
9 " The question is never 'who am I?' It's 'who do I want to be? "

10 " One of the greatest lies ever told is that there’s no power in vulnerability. "
― Dianna Hardy , The Last Dragon
11 " One thing I’ve learnt about humans: you can’t judge their strength by the size of their actions, but by the devotion of an act, no matter how small. "
12 " Real choices – the ones that changed you and shaped you – were never made with the head, but on the beat of a heart that saw a future it couldn't live without. "
13 " ...today, I’m writing about the extraordinary; those ‘moments’ in life that reach us, and change us. Those moments take place all the time, really – it’s just that we’re taught not to notice. We’re taught that whims are for the foolish; that instinct and passion are more akin to fairy tales than reality; that they won’t get us very far, and everyone would laugh at us if they knew what we really held close to our hearts.It’s a lie we allow ourselves, and it’s understandable.But it’s simply not true. "
― Dianna Hardy , The Spell of Summer (Once Times Thrice, #1)
14 " None of us are ordinary – we just settle into ordinary lives. "
15 " He thought he’d lived through everything. Only now did he realise he’d merely existed. "
― Dianna Hardy , The Demon Bride (The Witching Pen series, #3)
16 " Every sacred mission, every hunt for hidden relics, every pilgrimage from one end of the earth to the other … I was looking for you. "
17 " We must be careful with our words – we’re like superheroes and words are like our super powers. Super powers should always be used to help others… "
18 " Some wounds were worth bearing for the healing they brought. "
19 " We were immortal, did you know that? Did you feel it like me? We had the world at our feet and we were going to live forever. Then came life – growing inside you – and I became mortal. "
20 " Everything that matters hurts, until it doesn't matter anymore. "
― Dianna Hardy , Broken Lights
