Quote by Marissa Meyer

“—¿Todo fue una ilusión? —preguntó. El dolor atenazó su pecho y la dejó sin aire. —¿Kai? —¿Todo estaba en mi cabeza? ¿Era un truco lunar? Su estómago se retorció. —No —sacudía la cabeza, desesperada. ¿Cómo explicarle que no tenía ese poder antes? ¿Que no lo habría usado contra él? —Jamás te mentiría... Las palabras se desvanecieron. Todo lo que él sabía de ella había sido una mentira. —Lo siento mucho —terminó. Kai apartó la vista, buscando algún consuelo en el jardín resplandeciente. —Me duele más mirarte a ti que a ella.”

“For any child, and in a way for any human being, forever was an impossibly long time. Sarah had begun to realize, however, that it was never as long as one expected. It was the time spent in one’s childhood home, running in endless fields and gazing at infinite stars. It was the time a boy spent on Earth, laughing and loving and living. It was the time it took to heal a heart that had been shattered by loss. It was eternal, it seemed, until suddenly it was not.”

“Era una maga poderosa, pero no hizo lo que hacen los magos poderosos. No quería estar al mando. No quería controlar a la gente..., ni luchar. Sólo quería vivir en Watford y cuidar de las cabras. Y ellos no querían permitírselo. Es decir, que no podían limitarse a dejarla en paz. Murió en una guerra en la que no tenía nada que ver. Decidir abandonar el mundo de los Hechiceros no es una opción. 'No, gracias', no es una opción.”

“Good good,' he says. 'I make sure my people take good care of you. They will make Astrophage maybe for you to go home!' 'Yeah...' I say. 'About that... I'm not going home. The beetles will save Earth. But I won't ever see it again.' His joyous bouncing stops. 'Why, question?' 'I don't have enough food. After I take you back to Erid, I will die.' 'You... you can no die.' His voice gets low. 'I no let you die. We send you home. Erid will be grateful. You save everyone. We do everything to save you.' 'There's nothing you can do,' I say. 'There's no food. I have enough to last until we get to Erid and then a few months more. Even if your government gave me the Astrophage to get home, I wouldn't survive the trip.' 'Eat Erid food. We evolve from same life. We use same proteins. Same chemicals. Same sugars. Must work!' 'No, I can't eat your food, remember?' 'You say is bad for you. We find out.' I hold up my hands. 'It's not just bad for me. It will kill me. Your whole ecology uses heavy metals all over the place. Most of them are toxic to me. I'd die immediately.' He trembles. 'No. You can no die. You are friend.' I float closer to the divider wall and talk softly. 'It's okay. I made my decision. This is the only way to save both of our worlds.' He backs away. 'Then you go home. Go home now. I wait here. Erid maybe send another ship someday.' 'That's ridiculous. Do you really want to risk the survival of your entire species on that guess?' He's silent for a few moments and finally answers. 'No.”
