THE KING OF ATTOLIA ; MEGAN WHALEN TURNER

[moirae]

❝The king lifted a hand to her cheek and kissed her. It was not a kiss between strangers, not even a kiss between a bride and a groom. It was a kiss between a man and his wife, and when it was over, the king closed his eyes and rested his forehead against the hollow of the queen's shoulder, like a man seeking respite, like a man reaching home at the end of the day.❞

THE SYMPOSIUM ; PLATO

[moirae]

❝According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs, and a head with two faces. Fearing their powers, Zeus split them into two parts, condemning them to spend the rest of their lives in search of their other halves.❞

SCOTT PILGRIM ; BRYAN LEE O'MALLEY

❝Holly: But the real reason we're here is because Joseph has a crush on their base player.

Kim: I haven't seen him. Is he hot?

Holly: I don't know. Is he hot, Joseph?

Joseph: He is as hot as the flames of hell you bitches are going to.❞

❝I am a disappointing drudge, sir. I care for no man on earth and no man on earth cares for me.❞

ENCHANTMENT ; ORSON SCOTT CARD

[moirae]

❝Since the truth can never be known, a wise woman learns to become a connoisseur of lies, choosing only the best and most satisfying to surround herself with. I sink into my lies like featherbeds, and they keep me safe and warm.❞
