Quote by Sarah J. Maas

“Eris's amber eyes studied hers. 'Trust Rhysand to keep you hidden away.' Right. She was to flatter him, keep him on their side. 'I just saw you the other week.' Eris chuckled. 'And as riveting as it was to see you send Tamlin scrambling off with his tail between his legs, I didn't see this side of you. The time since the war has changed you.' She didn't smile, but she met his stare directly as she said, 'For the better, I hope.' 'Certainly for the more interesting. It seems you came to play the game tonight after all,' Eris spun her, and when she returned to him, he murmured in her ear, 'Don't believe the lies they tell you about me.' She pulled back just enough to meet his gaze, 'Oh?' Eris nodded to where Mor watched them from beside Feyre and Rhys, his face neutral and aloof. 'She knows the truth but has never revealed it.' 'Why?' 'Because she is afraid of it.' 'You don't win yourself any favours with your behaviour.' 'Don't I? Do I not ally myself with this court under constant threat of being discovered and killed by my father? Do I not offer aid whenever Rhysand wishes?' He spun her again. 'They believe a version of events that is easier to swallow. I always thought Rhysand wiser than that, but he tends to be blind where those he loves are concerned.' Nesta's mouth twitched to one side. 'And you? Who do you love?' His smile sharpened. 'Are you inquiring about my eligibility?' 'I'm merely saying it's hard to find a good dance partner these days.' Eris laughed, the sound like silk over her skin. She shivered. 'Indeed it is. Especially one who can both dance and tear the King of Hybern's head from his shoulders.' She let him see a bit of that person- see the savage rage and silver fire he'd witnessed before Tamlin. Then she blinked and it was gone. Eris's face tightened, and not from fear. He twirled her again, the waltz already coming to a close. He whispered in her ear, 'They say your sister Elain is the beauty, but you outshine her tonight.' His hand stroked down the bare skin of her back, and she arched slightly into his touch.”

“Ze všeho nejvíce Gausse rozčilovaly stále nové a nové pokusy různých geometrů dokázat pátý postulát. Nyní, když znal nový geometrický svět, když do něj bezpečně nahlížel, odhaloval v těchto domnělých důkazech chybu vždy hned při prvním pohledu. Jasně viděl, jak geometři tápají v tmách, jak plýtvají silami na těchto beznadějných pokusech - a pomoci jim nemohl; nesměl.”

“Wilhelmina e Emilienne, posteriormente, acrescentaram bolos de casamento ao repertório de doces depois que o querido professor do ensino médio, Ignatius Lux, casou-se com Estelle Margolis em uma pequena cerimônia na igreja luterana. A comemoração terminou com um bolo de quatro andares assado por Emilienne especialmente para a ocasião. Noivo e noiva compartilharam sorrisos felizes, mas era do bolo que os convidados se lembravam - o recheio de creme de baunilha, a cobertura de creme de manteiga, o leve gosto de framboesas que certamente haviam sido acrescentadas à massa. Ninguém levou para casa pedaços de bolo para colocar debaixo do travesseiro na esperança de sonhar com o futuro cônjuge; em vez disso, os convidados de Ignatius Lux e Estelle Margolis comeram-no todo e, depois, tiveram que sonhar que o estavam comendo novamente. Após essa festa de casamento, as solteiras acordavam à noite com lágrimas nos olhos, não porque estavam sozinhas, mas porque não havia mais bolo de casamento. Desnecessário dizer que o bolo, mais tarde, tornou-se um dos itens mais populares da padaria, encomendado em todo evento, grande ou pequeno.”

“É incrível, mas às vezes a gente não se dá conta de como o tempo passa rápido. Num instante eu era a criança viada mais linda do Brasil, com franjinha, pele perfeita e bochechas rechonchudas, e no outro não passava de um ex-espinhento jovem universitário, parcialmente barbado, pronto pra passar a noite enchendo a cara e, quem sabe, de quebra ainda abalar umas bocas.”

“Dovrà imparare a stabilire dei limiti e a farli conoscere alla persone che la circondano. La sua personalità la induce spesso a cercare di compiacere gli altri: una forma di sovradattamento cronico ai bisogni del prossimo a danno dei propri. Per natura lei è molto empatica, ma anche se è buona cosa occuparsi del benessere altrui, non bisogna confondere l'empatia "asciutta" con l'empatia "bagnata"! Con quest'ultima ci si fa carico del pathos dell'altro, si assorbono le sue emozioni negative e si finisce per stare male a propria volta. Con l'empatia asciutta, invece, si riesce ad ascoltare i problemi di chi ci sta attorno senza per questo farsi contaminare dagli umori nefasti. Smetta di essere troppo gentile; sia semplicemente autentica nelle sue emozioni e impari a dire di volta in volta cosa la disturba. Per esprimere ciò che sente è meglio una FESTA: F sta per i Fatti che l'hanno contrariata, E: esprima la sua emozione, S: pensi a una soluzione vantaggiosa per entrambi, TA: proponga un Terreno d'Accordo, un punto d'incontro.”

“Toss me one of your pencils!" "Have you gone mad?" I cried even as I removed the pencil from my cloak pocket and threw it at his head. It began to transform before it even reached him, elongating and flashing through the shadows--- a sword. I regretted aiming for his head then, but Wendell caught it with the grace of a trained swordsman, which of course he was. Watching Wendell with a sword is like watching a bird leap from a branch--- there is something thoughtless about it, innate. One has the sense that he is less himself without a sword, that wielding it returns him to the element most natural to him. He drove the sword into the nearest sheerie, and before it had fallen he had spun round to slash at the one behind him, slicing it open like overripe fruit. The other three fell just as easily.”
