Quote by Nibriell

“In the grand art of the word, a person comes closest to their own reality, yet this proximity demands a colossal effort. Sculpting words as an artist shapes marble, the writer measures their abilities against reality, a material as rigid and unpredictable. This endeavour is not devoid of ingenuity and refined techniques, but at its core, it holds something simpler and more human: relentless work. Although magic is present, it is often eclipsed by the effort and dedication required to transform words into the true mirror of our soul.”

“Out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Jace shoot her a look of white rage - but when she glanced at him, he looked as he always did: easy, confident, slightly bored. "In future, Clarissa," he said, "it might be wise to mention that you already have a man in your bed, to avoid such tedious situations." "You invited him into bed?" Simon demanded, looking shaken. "Ridiculous, isn't it?" said Jace. "We would never have all fit." "I didn't invite him into bed," Clary snapped. "We were just kissing." "Just kissing?" Jace's tone mocked her with its false hurt. "How swiftly you dismiss our love.”

“In moments of compromise and failure, my positive affirmations flip-flopped around in my mind like fish out of the water. In those moments, I could not remain positive, so the affirmations I tried to persuade myself with were empty and misleading more than anything else. In some moments, if I were to force myself to be positive, I would be lying to myself. I would be neglecting reality. Life wasn’t always good, and I wasn’t always happy. Was something wrong with me because of that fact, or is that just how life is? Positive psychology was good, but it was not enough.”

“After that first night, I expected not to see them again, as the campus was massive, and none of us had the same major. None of us lived near one another and all of us were in different grades. Yet, everywhere I went, I kept running into these same three individuals. Even though there were well over 30,000 students on campus, these same three popped up everywhere I went. At first, it seemed like an uncanny coincidence. My whole life had been void of these types of caricatures, now they were everywhere. In reality, God was pursuing me; He refused to let me slip through the cracks.”

“To be known wholly and completely by the Creator of all things; to face the reality that He sees our every thought, deed, and idle word, and still wants us and He is willing to look past who we are and what we’ve done, and die for us, to be valued like this is the greatest feat in life. This promise is not only for those who have gotten their act together, but for any willing to trust in Him.”
