D. Morgenstern

“Was this new self awareness a gift or a curse?”

“Hate and love were both conceived in fear, perhaps that was why they were nearly the same thing, but only one was steeped in hope.”

“Without hope, there is no despair. There is only meaningless suffering.”

“As you have seen the treachery of love because of me, I have seen my cruelty because of you. But you learned mercy from me, and from you I learned resilience. As you came to understand me enough to know the value I placed on selfless love, I understand your nature better.”
