Une histoire de magie, tome 2 : Une histoire de sorcellerie

Misery is like an animal, it needs food to survive - so starve it.

Brystal imagined herself floating in a space of total nothingness - with no worries, no fears, no anxiety, no responsibility, no shame, no guilt - and it gave her the most peace she had had in months.

Sometimes asking for help is just as heroic as giving it.

"We're up against some pretty scary and unprecedented times. The world isn't as safe as it used to be, and it may seem like we've lost something, but sometimes you have to lose to learn the most important lessons. And if there's one thing I've learned through all this, it's that no one is ever as alone or powerless as they feel. We can always find someone or something to help us if we're willing to change our perspective."

I may have more yesterdays than tomorrows, but I'm still a child in tortoise years! HA-HA !

We're going to fight sadness with laughter, we're going to fight loneliness with friendship, we're going to fight anger with gratitude, and we're going to fight fear with hope.

Hate is its own punishment.

The only thing in life that lasts forever is the fact that nothing lasts forever. Just like the weather, people have seasons, too - we all go through periods of rain and sunshine - but we can’t let a particularly rough winter destroy our faith in the spring, otherwise we’ll always be stuck in the snow.

Too often, the same people get away with the same sins over and over again. When their cruelty goes unchecked, when the law fails to avenge the mis- treated, and when the saying 'What goes around comes around' isn't enough, then it's up to us to provide retribution. Sometimes a curse is the only source of justice.
