“I’m not surprised you’ve driven three men to try and kill you, I’m only surprised there weren’t more,” said Damen, bluntly.
“There were,” said Laurent, “more.”
“You talk like a recipe exists to accustom one to death," I said, bitter.
"Oh, but there is," she responded. "Take a girl and remove her heart. Add a touch of tragedy and a thirst for vengeance. Divide her into equal parts of grief and rage, then serve her cold.”
Queen’s Thief Appreciation Week - Day Three | Favorite Character | Irene Attolia
He’d had a porcine habit of eating her food when he’d finished his own. When his wine cup was empty, he would reach without comment for hers, having noted if she’d sampled it first. She sat through her wedding feast with her lips stinging from the poison of the powdered coleus leaf that had touched them as she pretended to drink, then watched as he took her wine, as casually as he had taken her country, and choked on it and died.

Over the previous year she’d learned all she needed to know about her father’s most powerful barons, and while they squabbled about who might be the next king, she’d made herself queen.

I looked down at my dust-covered feet. I was tired, and I felt as light as a cloud that might blow away across the sky at any moment.

“It has not escaped my attention that everyone here objects to the way I handle a practice sword. Perhaps you’d like to tell me why?”
“The essence of the practice sword is to help you acquire the use of the real sword. If you don’t treat it like a real sword, Your Majesty, you thwart its purpose.

“Oh,” said the king, sounding amused, “in Eddis, we learn to keep track of the weapon we have in our hand.”
Meg Cabot Heroines – Susannah Simon | The Mediator
Okay, let me state right now that I am not a coward. I’m really not. But I’m not a fool, either. I think if you recognize that you are up against a force greater than your own, it is perfectly okay to run.
It’s not okay to leave others behind, though.
Queen’s Thief Appreciation Week - Day Seven | Free for All | Diplomacy in Her Own Name
“Your emperor cannot attack this coast unprovoked; the treaties with the greater nations of this Continent prevent him. All he can do is stir up an ugly three-way war and hope to be invited in as an ally, and I did not invite him.” The queen shook her head. “The problem with bribes, Nahuseresh, is that after your money is gone, threats still do not avail.”
