1 " Forever and ever, kid, until you're sick and tired of seeing me. "
― Marie Lu , Legend (Legend, #1)
2 " If you want to rebel, rebel from inside the system.That's much more powerful than rebelling outside the system. "
3 " June has never looked more beautiful than she does now, unadorned and honest, vulnerable yet invincible. "
4 " In the mirror, I look the same. But I am a different person inside.I am a prodigy who knows the truth. I know exactly what I'm going to do. "
5 " It's strange being here with you. I hardly know you. But...sometimes it feels like we're the same person born into two different worlds. "
6 " But every now and then, when I steal a glance at the Girl, or feel her eyes on me, I helplessly drift back to thinking about her. "
7 " I'm supposed to hate you for what you did, I think. But her eyes linger on me in a way that refuses to let me. "
8 " Her sadness makes her impossibly beautiful, like snow blanketing a barren landscape. "
9 " She's pretty in a way that distracts me just like she did in the Skiz ring. No, pretty's not the right word. Beautiful. "
10 " Dust everywhere... and out of that emerged this beautiful boy with the bluest eyes I'd ever seen, holding his hand out to help me to my feet. "
11 " At this moment, all I'm thinking about is what I'd give up for the chance to kiss her or to run my fingers through her dark hair. "
12 " I ALMOST KISSED THE GIRL LAST NIGHT. "
13 " I will hunt you down. I will scour the streets of Los Angeles for you. Search every street in the Republic if I have to. I will trick you and deceive you, lie, cheat and steal to find you, tempt you out of your hiding place, and chase you until you have nowhere else to run. I make you this promise: your life is mine. "
14 " Logic will save you when nothing else will. "
15 " What a joke! Poor little rich girl's fallen in love with the Republic's most famous criminal. "
16 " The boy who walks in the light "
17 " Then I realize from the hollow sound of her gun's click that her gun isn't loaded. Apparently she just wants to slap me around with it. "
18 " A crack of lightning, an explosion of thunder, the sound of pounding rain. "
19 " Money is the most important thing in the world, you know. Money can buy you happiness, and I don't care what anyone else thinks. "
20 " I find myself pausing to admire her face.For a brief moment, I'm lost to my surroundings. "
