“It takes courage to let down your armor, to welcome people to see you as you are. Sometimes I feel the same as you: I can’t risk having people behold me as I truly am. But there’s also a small voice in the back of my mind, a voice that tells me, “You will miss so much by being so guarded.”

“I am coming to love him, in two different ways. Face to face, and word to word.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“I think we all wear armor. I think those who don’t are fools, risking the pain of being wounded by the sharp edges of the world, over and over again. But if I’ve learned anything from those fools, it is that to be vulnerable is a strength most of us fear. It takes courage to let down your armor, to welcome people to see you as you are.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“I love the words I write until I soon realize how much I hate them, as if I am destined to always be at war within myself.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals

“I never told you that I love you. And I regret that, most of all.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“If you were a storm, I would lie down and rest in your rain. If you were a river, I would drink from your currents. If you were a poem, I would never cease to read you. I adore the girl you once were, and I love the woman you have become.” ― Rebecca Ross, The Queen's Resistance
“I am but a verse inspired by your chorus, and I will follow you until the end, when the isle takes my bones and my name is nothing more than a remembrance on a headstone, next to yours.” ― Rebecca Ross, A River Enchanted

“The days to come will only grow darker. And when you find something good? You hold on to it. You don't waste time worrying about things that won't even matter in the end. Rather, you take a risk for that light.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“It’s not a crime to feel joy, even when things seem hopeless. Iris, look at me. You deserve all the happiness in the world. And I intend to see that you have it.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“But time will slowly heal you, as it is doing for me. There are good days and there are difficult days. Your grief will never fully fade; it will always be with you--a shadow you carry in your soul--but it will become fainter as your life becomes brighter. You will learn to live outside of it again, as impossible as that may sound. Others who share your pain will also help you heal. Because you are not alone. Not in your fear or your grief or your hopes or your dreams. You are not alone.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
“My favorite season is autumn, because my mum and I both believed that’s the only time when magic can be tasted in the air.” ― Rebecca Ross, Divine Rivals
