Because hope comes from in you, and wishes are just magic. - Laini Taylor, Daughter of Smoke & Bone

"I know it's not easy for you, living this life, but try to remember, always try to remember, you're not the only one with troubles."

"Once upon a time, an angel and a devil fell in love. It did not end well."

"Love is a luxury.""No. Love is an element."An element. Like air to breathe, earth to stand on."

"Hope can be a powerful force. Maybe there's no actual magic in it, but when you know what you hope for most and hold it like a light within you, you can make things happen, almost like magic."

"I'm afraid they're in love,"he said, concerned. "They don't want to leave you."He lifted one hand from her waist to gently brush a pair from her neck, where their wings fanned against her jaw. Melancholy, he said, "I know just how they feel."
