Quote by Laura Chouette

“I always knew the mountains would take something from me one day. I wrote about their fine lines, their graves, and their shades. Then, one day, I looked up upon the gray— it takes everything and then nothing, even if you offer them everything. You can’t survive it, you live with it— in small pieces, small steps, small moments. All along, it takes you, survives you— you’ll never understand it.”

“Bullets bounced off his obsidian-hardened body; a body whose armour would have withstood even the greatest of nuclear weapons. Yet, an ache had gnawed at him, slicing through the armour of his heartless, battle-worn shell. No words, no weapon, could harm what had been forged, but the pain of their sacrifice, especially hers, remained—eternally engraved within his soul.”
