Quote by Sahara Sanders

“She raised her eyes to the heavens and asked God for a miracle to happen to help her escape the troubles at home. Actually, Emily wasn’t sure whom exactly she was talking to, whoever or whatever was there in the sky, and yet she, for some reason, couldn’t remember for sure when and how she discovered this magic way to change the reality, but intuitively, she felt some unexplainable and very strong soul-to-soul connection to whatever warmhearted senior forces she was talking to.”

“Another feature distinguishing Emily from the multitude was a kind of special sensitivity that couldn’t be explained from a stereotypical point of view. It was natural for her to make decisions based on so-called sixth feeling instead of logic. Sometimes, she simply felt and knew that it was right to act in a certain way, or that something particular was going to happen in the closest future. It’s interesting that, when she tested decisions made up by intellect and the ones when followed intuition, the latter always won. But how could she explain it to an average person, like those surrounding her in everyday life?”

“But nothing could change the memory of love… I wondered, does falling in love go through the eyes, or through the heart? If somebody asked me after a while, when it was all over, “What are you carrying with you?” I would answer, “Her.” I didn’t want to have anything else. I didn’t need anything else. Afterwards they called me The Devil, the master of lies, the one who bought and sold souls, the one with countless faces. They were right. I was taking the soul, bringing out all that was hidden there, deep inside, or behind countless masks, tempting it to come out into the light, tricking it into sucking up and showing itself.”

“They said that the devil was insensitive, that he was cruel, heartless, had lost his soul. This was not true for me. All the devil owns are emotions, passions, he is their master. He who is burned in them can be reborn in the same fire. He must be the rational one, but he was not. He was cruel, merciless to anything devoid of love, to anything that robbed us of our humanity. Yes, he was human and despised those who lived without love, who wasted life, for he knew the value of every moment. He hated all those who reviled love and chained it to satisfy their basic needs. Those who preached love, and behind their sermons, there was a slyness...”

“... the love within us is important, not the love we take or the love we are given. What is important is the fire that burns within us, the heat we beam, the fires we can light. The devil hates those who sit around other people’s firesides at night, basking in their shining bodies and hiding in their pitiful shells. Creatures ugly, ugly and terrible, but they needed love too. Anomalies… I also understood what we needed. Yes, I learned much more than I had even hoped. And probably more than I would have wanted to know if I had a choice.”

“It was such a time then – the words like payback, revenge and vendetta were very important to us. When I think of myself, I see a young and immature man, eager to get what he wanted, and pay for what someone else should have gotten in return. Both then and now, we are concerned with how much more to take and how much less to give. That was also my understanding of justice, but I knew I was obligated to make sure that they received retribution. And I saw retribution as a coin that was scrolled between the fingers of one of my hands. Then it would shoot up from the thumb and luck would decide – when you caught it in the air, who would get punishment and who wouldn’t.”
