1 " It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence. "
― Vicki Pettersson , The Scent of Shadows (Signs of the Zodiac, #1)
2 " Just because someone tried to make you into a victim didn’t mean that’s what you had to be. "
3 " Looks can’t hide your true identity. It’s the eyes that give you away…the soul behind them. The intent. The Shadows. "
4 " So much to say, yet no words would ever be enough. "
5 " There’s something about seeing an adult you knew in childhood that makes them marginally vulnerable to you, and vice versa. There’s also something comforting in thinking that if they made it this far, relatively unscathed, then maybe you didn’t turn out half bad either. "
6 " Hiding behind the mask of a quotation, using someone else’s words to bolster our own softly blooming emotions. "
7 " And that was is. Life sometimes flips on you like that. One minute you're looking at your reflection in the water, not entirely sure you like what you see, and the next minute you are upside down, submerged in a world where even familiar things look new. "
