“She was responsible for the things she chose. That's all. She almost managed a tiny smile. It was simultaneously an incredible responsibility and almost nothing at all, she thought wonderingly.”
“Sometimes I wonder if she knows, I wonder in my Nothingest moments if she's testing me, if she types nonsense all day long, or types nothing at all, just to see what I'll do in response, she wants to know if I love her, that's all anyone wants from anyone else, not love itself but the knowledge that love is there, like new batteries in the flashlight in the emergency kit in the hall closet.”
“She was tired of people saying things they thought she wanted to hear almost as much as she dreaded them saying the things she didn't want to listen to.”
“With a smile, she wondered at how almost everyone could say they had a secret bond with the moon.”
“She hated people who thought too much. At that moment, she struck me as an appropriate representative for almost all mankind.”
“In this light she could almost be a beauty, he thought. In this light she could almost be a knight." - Jaime”
