1 " Is it really a Lie if someone is unwilling to see the Truth? "
― Soman Chainani , Quests for Glory (The School for Good and Evil: The Camelot Years, #1)
2 " [B]eware trying to bend the Truth to fit your story instead of facing it head-on. That was your father's mistake. And that's how a Snake becomes a Lion and a Lion becomes a Snake. Because the more you bend the Truth to fit a story, the more it turns into Lies without you even realizing it. "
3 " To me, a king is a lighthouse. A guide who can cast his glow across his kingdom and bring every last one of us out of the shadows. A beacon who we can look up to when the world seems lost. A bridge who can unite us when our differences seem to stark to reconcile. Tonight, we need a king who is all of those things. A king who can look each of you in the eye and make you feel that you won't just fight for him or his kingdom, but you'll fight for our way of life. "

8 " If there's one thing I've learned in my long life, it's that every villain thinks they're the hero of their own story. "
9 " Relationships are about taking off the mask you wear to make someone like you and letting them see the real you. The one you hid all the time. The one you never thought was good enough to find love in the first place. "
10 " This is no longer a tale about whether you will find fame or fortune or your perfect little happy ending. This is a tale about whether you are capable of growing from the snake of your own story into the hero of someone else's. "
11 " Someone had to save him from himself. "
12 " You may have been born to do it, but that doesn't mean you'll do it well. "
13 " Sometimes the last person you should ask for the Truth is the one who knows it. "
14 " Enemies disguise as friends and friends as enemies. "
15 " That sordid, slippery little Snake looked us in the eyes and dared us to sire a king. And tonight, that king will have his vengeance. "
16 " When it comes to women, men can be quite weak. "
17 " I'm completely happy on my own, unattached and untroubled by the vagaries of love. "
18 " So we all paid a price for our mistakes in the end. "
19 " The old man cursed at her and went back inside. Dot smiled. “He’s such a good friend. "
20 " Please tell me you can turn a person to chocolate,” Anadil asked Dot. “I have enough trouble with lentil cakes, thank you,” Dot nipped. "
