1 " What are we without belief, without purpose? "
― Rachelle Dekker , The Choosing (Seer, #1)
2 " You are the daughter of your Father, inheritor of the Earth, beautiful and blameless, chosen. "
3 " Beautiful. Worthy of the highest love. Powerful and perfect. Beautiful is my daughter. "
4 " The truth is beautiful, like you. The truth is you have been made perfect and are wholly loved. Chosen simply because you breathe, because you exist, because of who created you. "
5 " I believe that there is a perfect plan set before each of us, and when we follow that plan things work out exactly as they should. For example, many would not believe we were meant to be a part of each other’s paths, yet here we are "
6 " I believe the flower’s purpose is not to be beautiful; it is to grow. Many seeds shrivel in the ground, but this one grew, and therefore it has been picked already, it is chosen already, it is beautiful already. "
7 " Fear is an illusion "
8 " Hear and believe, even in the storm. When it grows dark, find your song of truth, and then even in the darkness you will know who you are. "
9 " I know we are raised to believe that our lives are defined by being chosen or not being chosen, but I’m starting to think there’s another truth we’re missing "
10 " It is only by believing that you can save your life. Only when you believe in your true Father, only when you know who you are and who lives within you, can you be truly saved. "
11 " Please don't let the thing He loves so much be fooled by darkness. "
12 " Remember, we all have our place "
13 " What if I don’t want to be chosen?” “Hush! All girls want to be chosen. God commands it. Otherwise, you’ll live a life of solitude, never to be a wife or have children. Would you rather have that?” “But why do I have to work to be picked? Why can’t I just pick for myself without all this work?” “Because that is not the law.” “It’s a stupid law,” Carrington says under her breath. “Carrington Hale, you will not speak about the law this way. The law saved our race, our people. You wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the Authority and the true law. "
