Quote by Karen Chance

“You look furious,” Pritkin said, watching me. “I just—I can’t understand not fighting for your life— for what you want. Just giving up—” A corner of his mouth quirked. “No. You would not understand that. You never stop trying, do you?” “What else is there?” “Despair. Hopelessness. Anger. Depression.” “But those don’t get you anywhere.” He huffed out something that might have been a laugh, only it didn’t sound happy. “No. They don’t.”

“That stunning fuckin’ smile. I ain’t ever seen you smile in the whole time you’ve been at the compound.” I lost my smile, then replied, “Because I do not have reason to smile very often.” Ky’s fingers began tracing the back of my hand. “Then you make a reason, Li. Don’t make excuses for living a shit life. It ain’t rocket science. You don’t like something, find something you do. Don’t like being around someone, stay the fuck away. Wanna change your life, then get off your ass, bitch and fuckin’ change it.”

“Men will allow God to be everywhere but on his throne. They will allow him to be in his workshop to fashion worlds and make stars. They will allow Him to be in His almonry to dispense His alms and bestow his bounties. they will allow Him to sustain the earth and bear up the pillars thereof, or light the lamps of heaven, or rule the waves of the ever-moving ocean; but when God ascends Hes throne, His creatures then gnash their teeth. And we proclaim an enthroned God, and His right to do as He wills with His own, to dispose of His creatures as He thinks well, without consulting them in the matter; then it is that we are hissed and execrated, and then it is that men turn a deaf ear to us, for God on His throne is not the God they love. But it is God upon the throne that we love to preach. It is God upon His throne whom we trust.”
