“Mr. Asher, you can resist who you are for only so long. Finally, you just decide to go with fate.”
“… the world will indulge you just so long Asher Lev. Then it will stop. You will simply have to grow accustomed to that truth.”
“But you can only lie about who you are for so long without going crazy.”
“...remember one thing only: that it's you-nobody else-who determines your destiny and decides your fate. Nobody else can be alive for you; nor can you be alive for anybody else.”
“Ending a series is a difficult one .......where should a story that you have followed for so long end? When do you step away from the characters and let the readers decide their fate from there? When they can stand on their own is my only answer for that.”
“But you can only go so long being angry before you learn to hate.”
