Laura Thalassa, Rhapsodic (The Bargainer Series, #1)
"Of course it's all-consuming, but love- real love- doesn't destroy or smother. It's the very opposite of a weakness. Love strengthens. It liberates. It molds itself to every fiber of your being and fortifies you where where you may be broken."

Sabaa Tahir (A Reaper at the Gates (An Ember in the Ashes, #3)
"What was it that made this human love so much more desirable to me than the love of my own kind? Was it because it was exclusive and capricious? The souls offered love and acceptance to all. Did I crave a greater challenge? Or was it simply better somehow? Because these humans hate with so much fury, was the other end of the spectrum that they could love with more heart and zeal and fire?"
Stephenie Meyer (The Host, #1)
