“Fear gives people their humanity. Fear of loss.”
“Try and make it right, and if you can't, that's on them, not you. Forgiveness shouldn't be stockpiled by anyone. It should be given freely.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“To rise from the ashes only to have them rain on you from above.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“The human heart isn't meant to be caged by someone who doesn't feed it.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“Better to be a catalyst for change than a martyr for lies.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“My mother is quite the character. You'd hate her. Sometimes I think I hate her too, but mainly I feel sorry for her. Which is kind of worse.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“Love isn't a choice. I can't control how I feel about him any more than I can control the sun in the sky. But what I can do is control what I do with those feelings.”
Karina Halle, The Lie“I’m scared of him. I’m disgusted by the vile monster he becomes, this beast he lets out. But I still love him. I’d still do anything for him. I can’t just turn off my heart. I want to, I do, but I can’t. I love him with everything I have and I hate myself for it. Because it’s wrong to love him, I know. It’s so wrong.”
Karina Halle, On Every Street“Sometimes… we have a war in our hearts. We’re torn in two directions. The way we feel and the way we should feel. They rarely align. The battle goes on.”
Karina Halle, The Debt“I never realized how much I loved life until I knew it was being taken away.”
Karina Halle, Veiled“It doesn’t really matter in the end. Most people I talk to don’t take writing seriously. If I tell them I’m an aspiring author, they get that “yeah right” look on their face, which is usually followed by “good luck with that.”
