“We curse everything, for we are cursed, and we have no arms to shelter her and no lips to press to her hair and above all no words to tell her that we know loss and we know pain and if they were monsters we could fight we would have slain them in her name long ago like the heroes of old. But we are not a hero. We are cursed.” ― Meagan Spooner, Hunted
“We thought too much.Because while hatred is a fire only man feels, he does not hate the beast that comes in the night. Mankind fears it, fights it, drives it off, but he does not hate it. No one hates the bear, he wolf. They don't hate the wind or the snow. They don't hate the death. They hate each other.” ― Meagan Spooner, Hunted

He’s the only one who’s proved me wrong.” ― Amie Kaufman, This Shattered World
“Because I thought I couldn’t be happy until I went home, and then I thought I couldn’t be happy until I came back.” ― Meagan Spooner, Hunted
