Impossible Quotes

“I have learned well
the roles and scripts we people
create for ourselves,
and how afraid most people are of stepping outside them,
more comfortable (even if more miserable)
to keep their bubbles in place,
even if those bubbles are delusions of grandeur that lead to illusions
of impossibility,
even when shown there is another way,
a way that is more challenging, but also more gratifying.”

“There, in a clearing surrounded by towering trees, lay a sparkling silver pool. Even from a distance, I could tell that it wasn't water, but something more rare and infinitely more precious.
...
He crouched by the pool and cupped his hand to fill it. He tilted his hand, letting the water fall. 'Have a look.'

The silvery sparkling water that dribbled from his hand set ripples dancing across the pool, each glimmering with various colours, and- 'That looks like starlight,' I breathed.

He huffed a laugh, filling and emptying his hand again. I gaped at the glittering water. 'It is starlight.'

'That's impossible,' I said, fighting the urge to take a step toward the water.

'This is Prythian. According to your legends, nothing is impossible.'

'How?' I asked, unable to take my eyes from the pool- the silver, but also the blue and red and pink and yellow glittering beneath, the lightness of it...

'I don't know- I never asked, and no one ever explained.”

“She said he had seven times seven years before she claimed him, before he had to join her Under the Mountain. If he wanted to break her curse, he need only find a human girl willing to marry him. But not any girl- a human with ice in her heart, with hatred for our kind. A human girl willing to kill a faerie.' The ground rocked beneath me, and I was grateful for the wall I leaned against. 'Worse, the faerie she killed had to be one of his men, sent across the wall by him like lambs to slaughter. The girl could only be brought here to be courted if she killed one of his men in an unprovoked attack- killed him for hatred alone, just as Jurian had done to Clythia... So he could understand her sister's pain.'
...
'It was all a cruel joke, a clever punishment, to Amarantha. You humans loathe and fear faeries so much it would be impossible- impossible for the same girl who slaughtered a faerie in cold blood to them fall in love with one. But the spell on Tamlin could only be broken if she did just that before the forty-nine years were over- if that girl said to his face that she loved him, and meant it with her entire heart. Amarantha knows humans are preoccupied with beauty, and thus bound the masks to all of our faces, to his face, so it would be more difficult to find a girl willing to look beyond the mask, beyond his faerie nature, and to the soul beneath. Then she bound us so we couldn't say a word about the curse. Not a single word. We could hardly tell you a thing about our world, about our fate. He couldn't tell you- none of us properly could. The lies about the blight- that was the best he could do, the best we could all do. That I can tell you now... it means the game is over, to her.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses
