Madeline Miller
“-’Tell me’, he said, ‘who gives better offerings, a miserable man or a happy one’?

-’A happy one, of course.’

-’Wrong. A happy man is too occupied with his life. He thinks he is beholden to no one. But make him shiver, kill his wife, cripple his child, then you will hear from him. He will starve his family for a month to buy yo a pure-white yearling calf. If he can afford it, he will buy you a hundred’.

-’But surely, I said, you have to reward him eventually. Otherwise he will stop offering’.

-’Oh, you would be surprised how long he will go on. But yes, in the end, it’s best to give him something. Then he will be happy again. And you can start over.”
Madeline Miller, Circe

Sadegh Chubak
“کیف تریاک سید حسن خان را به عالم دیگر می‌برد و زندگییکنواخت او را تنوعی می‌داد- آنگونه زندگی تاریک و سرپوشیده‌ای که پیمودن آن مثل یک راهپیمایی ممتد در گندابی بود که تا زیر گلوی آدم سوسمار و قورباغه و مار آبی وول بزند.”

Victoria Aveyard
“You will be mine,” he hissed, even as my hands closed on either side of his head. In that moment, I saw my life as it could have been, as so many had lived before me. Resigned to a crown, unhappy and spreading that unhappiness. Miserable in my strength and power. Inflicting my pain on everyone around me, and my children after me.
I would not have that life for myself, not even if the alternative was to die.”
Victoria Aveyard, Broken Throne
