Quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon

...it is by our actions that we are destroyed or saved. The choice is ours.

Shamefully, all of us have wanted revenge on someone at some point for something. Ive lived since before man and buffalo roamed this small planet. I have survived the beginning, bloom, and death of countless enemies, civilizations, and people. And the one truth I have learned most during all of these centuries is the old Japanese proverb. If you sit by the river long enough, you will see the body of your enemy float by.

The smallest decisions made had such profound repercussions. One ten-minute wait could save a life… Or end it… One wrong turn down the right street or one seemingly unimportant conversation, and everything was changed. It wasn’t right that each lifetime was defined, ruined, ended, and made by such seemingly innocuous details. A major life-threatening event should come with a flashing warning sign that either said ABANDON ALL HOPE or SAFETY AHEAD. It was the cruelest joke of all that no one could see the most vicious curves until they were over the edge, falling into the abyss below.

The worst decisions in life we make are always the one we make out of fear.

Mama Lo can get a bit nasty whenever I play with the cubs. She thinks Im going to eat one, but theyre not to my taste. Too hairy. Now if shed let me skin one, I might be interested. (Simi)He laughed in spite of himself. Are you joking about that? (Gallagher)Oh no. I never joke about hairy food. Its disgusting. (Simi)

But hatred and rage solve nothing. Like a might fire, they quickly consume whatever is fed them.Yet it cant last. Soon enough, they devour all around them and burn out, leaving nothing but a hollowed shell no longer capable of feeling anything at all. (First Guardian)

Nick‘s eyes widened as a total state of befuddled huh possessed him. Was he in theTwilight Zone?

When you love someone, truly love them, you lay your heart open to them. You give them a part of yourself that you give to no one else, and you let them inside a part of you that only they can hurt-you literally hand them the razor with a map of where to cut deepest and most painfully on your heart and soul. And when they do strike, it’s crippling-like having your heart carved out.

Far be it from me to ever let my common sense get in the way of my stupidity. I say we press on.

Am I too late? Caleb asked as he joined them. Did he do something stupid?Yeah. On both counts. Tristan stalked past Nick.

If they think they can stop me, I defy them to bring the best they have and I shall roast them over a pit of their own arrogant stupidity.--Maxis

Acheron kissed her lightly on the cheek. Rest. Well be back when he needs you. He watched herclimb into bed before he took his nephew down to his room.Well, it appears to be just the two of us, little one. What say you we get naked, drunk and find us somewenches?The baby actually smiled up at him as if he understood.Acheron nodded. So thats it, eh? Barely a month old and youre already lecherous. You are your fathers son.

Acheron always says that our scars are there to remind us of out pasts, of where weve been and what weve gone through. But that pain doesnt have to drive or determine our future. We can rise about it if we let ourselves. Its not easy, but nothing in life ever is. -Sundown

We have three kinds of family 1.Those we are born to 2.Those who are born to us3.And those we let into our hearts ♥

I cant believe you cheated! I cant believe you didnt know it. Man, what kind of got are you? I never knew stupidity had a divine representative. Guess I was wrong, huh? Youre such an asshole.-Phobos & Diemos

You think because you are born of light that youre somehow better and kinder than those who arent, but youre not. It merely makes you feel entitled in your wrongful actions against others. But, youre no better than my mother. If anything youre worse because you think your viciousness is justified...

People make their own reality. That was what Praxis had taught him years ago. A hundred people can witness the exact same event, and give two hundred and three different accountings of it.

And human will is the strongest force ever created. There are those born to succeed and those who are determined to succeed. The former fall into it, and the latter pursue it all costs. They wont be denied.Nothing daunts them.

Get your filthy paws off my son, feet pue tan! Cherise

As Ive always said to Talyn, tough times never last. But tough Andarions. I learned that from watching you as a boy. Your parents, grandparents, and Keris treated you like shit and yet you never once spoke against them. Youd just lift your chin and carry on. Barking dogs dont bother me, you used to say. Sooner or later, they reach the end of their yard and hit a fence. Ill keep going past it, and wont hear them anymore.
