“If someone can care about me that deeply, despite all my faults, despite all my refutations, despite all my everythings, then that makes all the storms and all the oceans worth it.”
― T.J. Klune, Bear, Otter, and the Kid

“I鈥檒l wait for you,鈥� he said as his hand dropped to his side, as his eyes began to dim. 鈥淚 think I could wait for you forever.”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“Not knowing is better than pretending to know.”
― T.J. Klune, Under the Whispering Door

“There鈥檚 still time left. The best thing I can do is to make the most of it.”
― T.J. Klune, Under the Whispering Door

“You can't just wipe away your history.”
― TJ Klune, Bear, Otter, and the Kid

“It鈥檚 funny, really: the older you get, the more you know about the world. The synapses in your brain fire at a higher level and quicker function, your knowledge expands. But you lose part of yourself, that part able to imagine great armies that wait for nothing more than your command; the dragon that hides under your bed that only you can see, its long emerald tail flashing in the darkness; the ghost that lives in your attic that only moans at 3:23 in the morning. When you lose that innocence, the world鈥檚 hues become dark and muted, and you know that dragons aren鈥檛 real. There is no army. There is no ghost in the attic. But when you鈥檙e nine? When you鈥檙e nine, it鈥檚 all probable, it鈥檚 all realistic, and even more so, it鈥檚 all true.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“You don鈥檛 ever doubt me again,鈥� he said hoarsely before his mouth grazed my nipples, first the left and then the right. His scruffy beard scraped the skin beneath raw as he went back and forth. 鈥淚 will fucking kill you if you ever doubt me again!鈥� he snarled.

My eyes rolled back into their sockets at the weight of his words, the desperation in his voice matching the desperation in my movements. I moaned as he bit my nipple harder, almost chewing it between his teeth. I was trapped underneath him, and even though I knew I could push him away, I also knew I wouldn鈥檛.

鈥淵ou answer me when I鈥檓 talking to you! 鈥� he roared.

鈥淚 won鈥檛,鈥� I breathed, my hands in his short hair. 鈥淥h, God, I won鈥檛.鈥�

鈥淵ou won鈥檛 what! 鈥�

鈥淚 will never doubt you again!鈥�

鈥淵ou鈥檙e damn right you won鈥檛.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“I鈥檓 not jealous,鈥� he said jealously.”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“It鈥檚 not always about what we can or can鈥檛 have, but the work we put into it.”
― T.J. Klune, Under the Whispering Door

“The world is on fire, I thought wildly. See it burn and oh, my God, it burns for us.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“I wonder now, with everything said and done, if things would have been different had I remembered what the Tree had told me. Would I have made the same decisions, the same mistakes? Where would I be, had I remembered? Had I listened? I have learned in my short time here on this world that we as humans are all capable of a great many things, our minds able to process so much. Too much, really.

But our greatest curse, our greatest folly, if you will, is our ability of hindsight.

Of regret.

Oh, Seven. How I wish I would have known.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“This next is my grandest sorrow, this grief I brought my own to carry, the weight of which threatened to crush all I had.

It鈥檚 followed, fittingly enough, by him. While I was at my darkest, he came for me.”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“He stared up at me, and even as the house fell apart around us, even as drops of fire rained down from the sky, his hand raised and brushed a lock of hair out of my face, and I felt his stomach rise as he breathed in deeply.

鈥淵ou,鈥� he whispered. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e a boy?鈥� His hands cupped my face, and a tear streaked down my cheek onto his fingers.
鈥淚 dreamt of you but鈥� but I never thought鈥�”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“This is your home.鈥� He reached up his other hand and gripped my face, pressing down hard against my cheeks.

I nodded.

鈥淪ay it!鈥�

鈥淚 won鈥檛 run,鈥� I whispered as I watched an angry tear trickling from his eye. I leaned forward and licked it away.”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“I struggled not to laugh at the brand-new bottle of lube in his left hand and the unopened box of condoms in his right. He watched me, his expression dark.

鈥淛ust buy those?鈥� I asked lightly.

He nodded once.

鈥淗ad it all worked out in your mind, did you?鈥�

He nodded again.

鈥淗ave you ever fucked a man, Seven?鈥�

He shook his head, his right hand squishing the box of condoms as he tightened his grip.

鈥淎nd鈥� this is what you want?鈥� I looked at his face then, watching for any signs of doubt. There were none as he nodded again.

I opened my arms. 鈥淐ome here,鈥� I said softly.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“Felix鈥檚 beauty devastates him, annihilates every fiber of his being, and the voices shout in his head, they sing to him until he thinks his head will split.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“Then it hit me and I grinned at him. 鈥淵ou want to suck my dick!鈥�

His face grew redder. 鈥淵ou don鈥檛 have to say it like that,鈥� he grumbled.

I almost felt contrite. 鈥淚鈥檓 sorry. How about you want to make love to my member with your oral cavity? Or how about you want to fellate me until I let loose my love juice? Is that better?”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“Me and Seven, I thought as I arched my back. Me and Seven, that鈥檚 all there is. That鈥檚 all there needs to be. He kissed me sweetly as his hips rolled forward, and his breath became fire in my mouth.”
― T.J. Klune, Burn

“We crashed and collided in ways I didn鈥檛 think were possible between two people. If I wasn鈥檛 careful, I was going to be in over my head before I realized what was happening.”
― TJ Klune, Burn

“My daughter pierced her septum,鈥� Patricia said forlornly. 鈥淪he looks like a bull. My little girl, wanting a matador to chase her down and stick things in her.”
― T.J. Klune, Under the Whispering Door

“So he gave everything he had left. "I think you're lovely. All of you. And though I've lived in a world where you didn't exist for most of my life, I don't believe that's a world I can be in any longer. It started with the sun, and it was warm. And then came the sea, and it was unlike anything I'd ever seen before. It was followed by this place, this island so mysterious and wonderful. But it was you who gave me peace and joy like I've never had before. You gave me a voice and a purpose. Nothing would have changed if it hadn't been for all of you. I believe they've listened to me, but the only reason I knew what to say at all was because of what you taught me. We're not alone. We never have been. We have each other. If I were to leave again, I would wish I were here. I don't want to wish anymore. If you'll have me, I would like stay. For always.”

“Well, it was so quiet you could have heard a molecule fart three states away.”
― T.J. Klune, Bear, Otter, and the Kid

“I've seen the heart of all of them, and it beats tremendously despite everything they've gone through, either by your hand, or others.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“They don't see the children," she said. "Not for who they are, only for what they are capable of."
"They should be given a chance as all children should.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“Just because you have decided that all magical beings need to be tagged in the wild for tracking doesn't give you the right to question me or my legal status.”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“Are you telling me how to do my job?" he asked stiffly.
"I'm asking for an ounce of compassion."
"I know compassion, Ms. Chapelwhite. It's why I do what I do."
"You really believe that, don't you?"
He looked at her sharply. "What's that supposed to mean?”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“Why have you never seen the ocean?" Phee asked as Linus stared in horror at Lucy. "It's always there. It never goes anywhere. It's too big to move." [. . .]
"I've just...I've never had time," Linus said, feeling dizzy. "I-too many responsibilities. I have an important job and-"
Theodore attacked the meat Ms. Chapelwhite had set on his plate growling low in his throat.
"Arthur says that we should always make time for the things we like," Talia said. "If we don't, we might forget how to be happy. Are you not happy, Mr. Baker?”
― T.J. Klune, The House in the Cerulean Sea

“Arthur arched an eyebrow. "Someone like me?"
"You know what I mean."
"Then why can't you say it?"
Linus's chest hitched. "A magical creature."
"Yes."
"Perhaps the rarest of them all."
"So it would seem."
"You're . . ."
"Say it. Please. Let me hear you say it. I want to hear it from you."
[...]
Linus Baker said, "You're a pheonix.”

“How does one arrive at the decision to kill God?" Dad asked. "It's easier than you might expect. We had a problem. And I... I was the answer.”

“- Nadie lo sabe, se帽or Baker. Hay misterios que quiz谩 nunca consigamos resolver, por mucho que nos esforcemos. Y si nos pasamos demasiado tiempo intentando resolverlos, tal vez nos pase inadvertido lo que tenemos delante de las narices.”
