Life Quotes Quote by Laini Taylor, Daughter of Smoke & Bone — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

““Yearning for love made her feel like a cat that was always twining around ankles, meowing”

“She craved a presence beside her, solid. Fingertips light at the nape of her neck and a voice meeting hers in the dark. Someone who would wait with an umbrella to walk her home in the rain, and smile like sunshine when he saw her coming. Who would dance with her on her balcony, keep his promises and know her secrets, and make a tiny world wherever he was, with just her and his arms and his whisper and her trust.”

““Love is a luxury."”

“Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come. You can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are.”

“My only advice is to stay aware, listen carefully, and yell for help if you need it.”

“Sadness may be part of life but there is no need to let it dominate your entire life.”

“I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.”

“When defeat comes, accept it as a signal that your plans are not sound, rebuild those plans, and set sail once more toward your coveted goal.”

“Anymore, no one's mind is their own.”
