3 " Sometimes people would rather accept a lie than know the truth. Life is a whole lot easier to swallow that way. "
4 " Darkness is no longer something I fear. Not when the light lives within me. Because that’s the thing about weaknesses. They somehow have the power to make you stronger. "

6 " He looked like he wanted to eat you."With that, I throw my head back and laugh. "That man has no problem finding a meal. I highly doubt he's starving."She scrunches her nose to show me she doesn't agree. "Well, maybe he just spotted something new on the menu. You know men and their food; they have to try a little bit of everything until they're completely satisfied. "
7 " We're all different. We all have weaknesses. Until you embrace yours, they will only hold you back from what you're destined to accomplish. "

8 " Chocolate. The food of the gods, as my grandma used to call it. And I totally agree. It’s the answer to prayers. Emotional relief. A form of currency. An aphrodisiac. Raw and dark. White and saccharine. Milky sweet. Mouthwatering. It’s all good; I don’t discriminate. "

15 " Our love wasn't just written in the stars. Our love was the stuff stars and planets were made of. They had created them and told the story of our past, present, and future combined. And there was only room to grow. "
16 " History doesn’t mean it no longer exists, Wild One. The opposite is true. History is more than a time period or an event. It’s born into our DNA and embedded in our bones. Without history, there’s no future. And the more you know and understand, the more power you have to right the wrongs of our ancestors. "
― K.K. Allen , A Bridge Between Us
