“I know better than to be afraid of stories”
―
Sara Holland,
Everless
“Maybe I am a mystery— a secret— that needs unravelling...” ― Sara Holland, Everless
“But that doesn't mean the past has to repeat itself. We have to believe that we can change the future. Otherwise, what's the point of anything?” ― Sara Holland, Evermore
“You have more happy memories than scary ones, don't you? Why give the scary ones so much space in your head?” ― Sara Holland, Havenfall
“The idea takes hold of me, somewhere deep down, and I know that as soon as I can, I will have to find my own way to the town out of time.” ― Sara Holland, Everless
“Most of them, anyway. Some books remained—people never realize how many secrets a book can contain.” ― Sara Holland, Evermore
“It’s possible to feel joy and grief at the same time. It’s possible to look forward to the horizon while mourning what you’ve lost.” ― Sara Holland, Everless

“It’s possible to look forward to the horizon while mourning what you’ve lost.” ― Sara Holland
“The only way to kill pure evil is with pure love.” ― Sara Holland, Evermore
“The Queen’s voice is deep and resonant—like a physical thing, it takes up space in the room.” ― Sara Holland, Everless
“A drop of sweetness mixes into the grief inside me. It’s only a drop in a sea, but in that moment, it feels like everything.” ― Sara Holland
“Sara’s voice, begging to pet Star, brought him back to the moment. Nick looked away from Elizabeth, and she scrambled to her feet. “Of course, Sara,” she said. “I didn’t mean to be selfish. It’s just that I’ve never fallen in love with a horse before.” She shook the straw out of her skirt. “It’s had quite an effect on me. I forgot you were waiting.” What about me? Nick thought. Could you bring yourself to let some of that love spill over to me? He mentally shook his head at his fantasy and made an effort to sound normal.” ― Debra Holland, Wild Montana Sky
“don’t want to pick saskatoons ever again,” she said in a small, fearful voice. “Now, honey, don’t you worry none,” Nick told her in an exaggerated drawl. “You’ve been picking berries here for years and never saw any ole bears until today.” He winked at her. “Besides, I don’t think that grizzly was after Miss Elizabeth. I think it was more interested in her basket of berries.” “Then why’d you kill it?” Sara asked, looking a little less fearful. “I saw that there grizzly, and I thought to myself, bear steaks! I sure do love bear steaks. And since your pa don’t let me keep any bears in the barn, I rarely get to eat any.” Sara laughed, and color returned to her cheeks. “Silly Nick. You can’t keep bears in the barn!” “Well, maybe not. But I couldn’t let an ole bear frighten a pretty little lady like Miss Elizabeth, now could I?” Elizabeth’s heart lightened at the compliment, but she pretended not to hear. As Nick reassured the child, she could feel the strain inside her ease. “We’ll get that bear’s head stuffed and mounted,” Nick continued. “Then Miss Elizabeth can hang it in her bedroom.” “Don’t you dare,” Elizabeth exclaimed in mock horror. “I’d never be able to sleep!” ― Debra Holland, Wild Montana Sky
“He’s not,” I tell myself. The lie freezes in the winter air, falls to the ground like snow. I kick at it with the toe of my boot.” ― Sara Holland
“My eyes flutter closed, imagining what a stone would taste like.” ― Sara Holland, Everless
“Lots of things that can kill you are beautiful. A high cliff. A lightning strike. A freezing cold night on the mountains.” ― Sara Holland
“Dan klautert de jager van me af...Mijn adem stokt in mijn keel. Ik herken dat korte krulhaar. Ze haalt het masker los en laat de zijde op de grond vallen.Ina.” ― Sara Holland, Evermore
“Mijn oudste metgezel. Mijn beste en oudste vriendin.'Jules,' fluistert ze weer. 'Het is zo mooi.'… Caro vangt iets van het licht op haar vingers en ik zie dat ze haar hand eromheen sluit, en dan dringt opeens met een misselijkmakende huivering tot me door wat dit betekent...Het was altijd en alleen de dood van mijn oudste vriendin die mijn hart zou breken.” ― Sara Holland, Evermore
