“I care," he said in a trembling voice. "I care so much that I do not know how to tell you without it seeming inconsequential compared to how I feel. Even if I am distant at times and seem as if I do not want to be with you, it is only because this scares me, too.”

“Keep trying until you have no more chances left.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Maybe you'll win when hell freezes over."He raised an eyebrow."That could be easily arranged.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Do you think he's cute?"I rolled my eyes. "He's a god, Mom. Of course he's cute.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Sometimes we misjudge what is possible and what is not.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Whatever obstacles you face, remember you can get through anything if you want to badly enough.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“No matter what happens, I will always be there for you, even if you do not remember who I am.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Did you know,” he said, his breath warm on my cheek, “that that is the first time anyone has ever told me they loved me?” Startled, I did the only thing I could think of—I kissed him again. “You’d better get used to hearing it more often, because I plan on saying it to you an awful lot.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“It is supposed to be the truth." He stared at me and my breath caught in my throat. "If I were a better man, I would be able to show you the love and affection you deserve. As I am not, I can only offer you what I'm capable of giving. But I assure you, just because I do not show it, doesn't mean I do not feel it.” ― Aimee Carter, Goddess Interrupted
“I was falling for him, a little more everyday, even though a very large part of me knew that this was a bad idea.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“Sadness doesn't equal weakness, sweetheart. If anything, it shows the love you have inside of you, and nothing stronger in this world exists.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Inheritance
“I’m not, even if you think I am. But no matter what this started out as…an accident, fate, whatever—I’m glad you found me that night. Not because of what happened, but because of now. Because I get to be here with you. And I’m scared, too, but—but thank you for telling me today. Thank you for trusting me with that. I’ve never…” I pressed my lips together, trying to find the right words. “I’ve never felt like this for anyone. And I’m not really sure what falling in love feels like, but I think—I know I have. With you.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“It has been a very long time since I've received a gift as extraordinary as you.” ― Aimee Carter
“It hurts being the one who loves more” ― Aimee Carter, Goddess Interrupted
“You can say you love me all you want, but if you only ever act like the opposite's true, then I can't trust your words anymore.” ― Aimee Carter, Goddess Interrupted
“Persephone told me that you said it wasn't as good as you expected it. When she kissed you, I mean."Something flickered behind his eyes, but it was gone so fast that I couldn't tell what it was. "No, it was not. I find little joy in showing affection to somebody who does not return it.""Yeah, me too." I covered his hand with mine and pressed my lips against his palm. "It hurts being the one who loves more.” ― Aimee Carter, Goddess Interrupted
“This is the gate between the living and the dead", he said. "You are still living. The others on the grounds died very long time ago."A chill ran through me. "And you?""Me?" The corner of his mouth twitched. "I rule the dead. I am not one of them” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“But if this works-if I pass, I need to know that when you look at me, you're going to see me, not just her replacement. That there is more in this future for me than standing in the shadows while you wallow the rest of your existence away.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
“What are you and Henry going to do tonight anyway?""My secret," I said, and when I walked around to see the look on her face, I rolled my eyes. "Not that. What are you and Xander going to do?""That." She gave me an impish look, and I scowled. "What? I'm dead. It's not like it matters anymore.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
