Tanveer

“The ocean waves thunder on, and it is man who must swim amongst them. The wind blows, cold and brittle, and it is man who must protect against it. The earth shakes and cracks, swallows and destroys, but it is man who must walk upon it. So it is with death. I cannot surrender.”
― Sabaa Tahir, A Reaper at the Gates

“Hope is stronger than fear. It is stronger than hate.”
― Sabaa Tahir, A Reaper at the Gates

“Curse this world for what it does to the mothers, for what it does to the daughters. Curse it for making us strong through loss and pain, our hearts torn from our chests again and again. Curse it for forcing us to endure.”
― Sabaa Tahir, A Reaper at the Gates

“That's how hearts get broken, you know. When you believe in promises.”
― Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces
