1 " Money. The dark obsession of the human race. "
― Samantha Shannon , The Mime Order (The Bone Season, #2)
2 " Words are everything. Words give wings even to those who have been stamped upon, broken beyond all hope of repair. "
3 " His dreamscape sent a tongue of fire across my flowers. "
4 " Madness is a matter of perspective, little dreamer. "
5 " It is not that I do not want you. Only that I might want you too much. And for too long "
6 " You told me once that freedom was my right.” I held his gaze. “Maybe you should do something with it. "
7 " Joke are the declaration of fools "
8 " Jokes are the declarations of fools. "
9 " Ve kelimeler, benim rüyagezerim... Eh, kelimeler her şeydir. Kelimeler üzerinde tepinilmiş, onarılması asla mümkün olmayanlara bile kanatlar bahşeder. "
10 " Hope is the lifeblood of revolution. Without it, we are nothing but ash, waiting for the wind to take us. "
11 " You can never want too much. That’s how they silence us,” I said. “They told us we were lucky to be in the penal colony instead of the æther. Lucky to be murdered with NiteKind, not the noose. Lucky to be alive, even if we weren’t free. They told us to stop wanting more than what they gave us, because what they gave us was more than we deserved.” I picked up my jacket. “You’re not a prisoner any more, Arcturus.” Warden looked at me in silence. I left him in that ruined hall with the music echoing above him. "
12 " Change a word or two, even a single letter, and you change the entire story. "
13 " Some revolutions change the world in a day. Others take decades or centuries or more, and others still never come to fruition. Mine began with a moment and a choice. "
14 " With the right reasons, at the right moment, even the most beaten and broken of people could rise up and reclaim themselves. "
15 " Truth looks different in every lens. "
16 " Isn’t it wonderful, how words and paper can embroil us so? We are witnessing a miracle, dear heart. "
17 " Writing didn't carry the same risks as speaking. You couldn't be shouted down or stared at. The page was both a proxy and a shield. "
18 " London - beautiful, immortal London - has never been a 'city' in the simplest sense of the word. It was, and is, a living, breathing thing, a stone leviathan that harbours secrets underneath its scales. It guards them covetously, hiding them deep within its body; only the mad or the worthy can find them. "
19 " That's delusional, isn't it?”“Definitely. But if you're both delusional together, you'll be fine. "
20 " Dance and fall.Like a puppet. All those years of dancing. "
