Quotes
In the heart of every person, there is a wilderness.
Fear can shape a man more than courage.
The past is a shadow that never leaves.
Words are spells of their own, powerful and binding.
In the quiet of the night, truths often whisper the loudest.
The line between salvation and damnation is often a narrow one.
Magic is not in the act, but in the belief.
A town can be both a sanctuary and a prison.
To accuse is to wield a weapon.
Hope is the light that pierces even the darkest despair.
Every secret is a seed that grows in silence.
The mind can be a battleground of its own making.
