1 " I love you, I thought. But I didn’t say it. It was not that I feared she would laugh in my face. She was far too kind for that. My fear was a greater one— that she won’t say it back. "
― Alex Flinn , Beastly (Beastly, #1; Kendra Chronicles, #1)
2 " when you're a kid, they tell you that it's what's on the inside that counts. Looks don't matter . But that's not true. Guys like Phoebus in The Hunchback, or Dorian, or the old Kyle Kingsbury-- they can be scumbags to women and still get away with it because they're good-looking. Being ugly is a kind of prisoner. "
3 " those who do not know how to see the precious things in life will never be happy. "
4 " Just because something is beautiful doesn´t mean it´s good. "
5 " You are ugly now, on the inside, where it matters most...you are beastly. "
6 " People make such a big deal about looks, but after a while, when you know someone, you don´t even notice anymore... "
7 " It hurts too much so I don't want to talk about it. "
8 " ...if there´s a beast,maybe he´s just a regular guy with a sin conditon or something. Maybe he just needs some understanding. Maybe we judge people to much by their looks because it´s easier than seeing what´s really important. "
9 " Something with inner beauty will live forever, like the scent of a rose. "
10 " The magic is over, but its effects will live forever. "
11 " I just knew. There was no movie ending. There was only an ending. "
12 " It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books. "
13 " Sometimes it also helps to have a bit less pride. "
14 " Sometimes, unexpected things can happen. "
15 " Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that. "
16 " You shouldn't miss someone who don't miss you, right? "
17 " She wanted to leave. I loved her too much to make her stay. "
18 " Magic. It was magic, and the magic is called love. "
19 " Trust me?" I held my breath for her answer. She had every reason not to trust me. I'd been her kidnapper, her captor, yet I'd rather have died than hurt a single hair on her head. "
20 " Surface beauty: blond hair, blue eyes" - she was looking at me - "is always easy to recognize. But if someone is braver, stronger, smarter, that's harder to see." - Kendra Hilferty "
