“Beauty is a woman’s curse. Men will hurt you just because you’re beautiful. Just because they’re self-conscious and need to validate themselves, they build their esteem by tearing yours down. They will try to con you out of your virginity, misuse your body, make you grieve so much you lose your beauty, and rob you of your sanity, but they can never take away your knowledge.”

“How is it you're so beautiful and so fucking ugly inside!You know it wouldn't take much to make your outside look like your inside!!I could just chop your brain out!It doesn't deserve such a pretty body...”

“To the people who love you, you are beautiful already. This is not because they’re blind to your shortcomings but because they so clearly see your soul. Your shortcomings then dim by comparison. The people who care about you are willing to let you be imperfect and beautiful, too. (20)”

“If you define yourself by your hair texture you have some soul searching to do. Start now the rest of us are tired of your stupidity.”

“No matter how long it takes or however long I am gone, I will always come back to you. Just like the goldsmith came back for his love. You promised your heart to me so long ago and with this ring came your heart. So I shall give mine.”

“Never esteem anything as of advantage to you that will make you break your word or lose your self-respect.”

“You faced him down like a seasoned warrior," he [Hector] says. "Only because I had your daggers at my back.”
