Own Choices Quotes

“Rhysand dropped onto the couch beside me at least, loosing a breath. His eyes slid to me. 'If you want to go, then you go, Feyre.' If I hadn't been already in love with him, I might have loved him for that- for not insisting I stay, even if it drove his instincts mad, for not locking me away in the aftermath of what had happened yesterday. And I realised- I realised how badly I'd been treated before, if my standards had become so low. If the freedom I'd been granted felt like a privilege and not an inherent right. Rhys's eyes darkened, and I knew he read what I thought, felt. 'You might be my mate,' he said, 'but you remain your own person. You decide your fate- your choices. Not me. You chose yesterday. You choose every day. Forever.' And maybe he only understood because he, too, had been helpless and without choices, had been forced to do such horrible things, and locked up. I threaded my fingers through his and squeezed. Together- together we'd find our peace, our future. Together we'd fight for it.”

“Those are Father’s words, Inan. His decisions. Not yours. We are our own people. We make our own choices.” “But he’s right.” Inan’s voice cracks. “If we don’t stop magic, Orïsha will fall.” His eyes return to me, and I tighten my grip on my staff. Try it, I want to bark. I’m done running away. Amari redirects Inan’s line of vision, her delicate hands cupping the back of his head. “Father is not the future of Orïsha, brother. We are. We stand on the right side of this. You can stand there, too.”
