Justice seemed so little, so late.
Nettle and Bone, T. Kingfisher
You keep asking why your work is not enough, and I don’t know how to answer that, because it is enough to exist in the world and marvel at it. You don’t need to justify that, or earn it. You are allowed to just live.
A Psalm for the Wild-Built, Becky Chambers
He kept regular hours, avoided any human interaction more complicated than afternoon tea, and read for exactly thirty minutes before bed.

You pretended to hate him because you were a coward. But you eventually loved him, and he is a part of you now, because you have since grown brave.
The Obelisk Gate, N.K. Jemisin
There is such a thing as too much loss. Too much has been taken from you both--taken and taken and taken, until there's nothing left but hope, and you've given that up because it hurts too much.

The Obelisk Gate, N.K. Jemisin
She doesn't want to go back, not even for the end of the world.
The Obelisk Gate, N.K. Jemisin
The decision not to leave your crown where it had fallen was the hardest decision you had ever made.
Petty Treasons, Victoria Goddard
You do not need to solve all the world's ills in one fell swoop.
The Return of Fitzroy Angursell, Victoria Goddard
It is a hazard of the profession, arrogance. You can change the world, and so you begin to think you should.
The Return of Fitzroy Angursell, Victoria Goddard
I went to sit at the feet of the Sun. I went to learn what I might learn, and from the house of the Sun I have brought home the fire.
The Hands of the Emperor, Victoria Goddard
