Quote by Stephenie Meyer (b. 1973)

• Just because we've been dealt a certain hand, it doesn't mean that we can't choose to rise above - to conquer the boundaries of a destiny that none of us wanted. To try to retain whatever essential humanity we can.

• I like the night. Without the dark, we'd never see the stars.

• I was thinking about how disjointedly time seemed to flow, passing in a blur at times, with single images standing out more clearly than others. And then, at other times, every second was significant, etched in my mind.

• I know love and lust don't always keep the same company.
