“Love is a rebellious bird that nobody can tame.”

“People can be cruelest to those they love.”

“There was nothing more painful than hurting someone you loved.”

“Can you believe I have a favorite cave?”

“Ideals belong in a world only the wise man can understand," Marron said quietly.”

“Love was like the waves in the sea, gentle and good sometimes, rough and terrible at others, but that it was endless and stronger than the sky and earth and everything in between.”

“Oh her deathbed, when her hands could no longer weave or paint or mold clay, she'd told stories and filled them with the colors she loved.”
