October 8, 2024 at 9:22 am #187006“You can choose what you believe, Shuffler, but you can’t change what’s true.”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“All of life is a battle against fear. We fight it on one front, and it sneaks around to our flank.” He paused, looked kindly at her.
“Yes, Father. I understand.”
“I regret many things I’ve done,” he said, “but most of all I regret those moments when I said to Fear, ‘You are my master.”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“The Green Ember burns; the seed of the New World smolders. Healing is on the horizon, but a fire comes first. Bear the flame.”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“What do I always tell you? ‘ Not enough salt is an in-salt,’ and ‘Too much salt is an as-salt!”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“It’s better to live as you will want to have lived, rather than spend your time worrying about the end. You are right here in your story. Don’t skip ahead”
― S.D. Smith, Ember Falls“Growing up is terribly wonderful. But often it’s also wonderfully terrible.”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“we have to keep loving what’s on the other side of this fight—the other side of this rescue— and that will have to make us brave.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember Rising“If you aren’t angry about the wicked things happening in the world all around, then you don’t have a soul.”
― S.D. Smith, The Green Ember“Thank you for loving us, Mother and Father. Thank you for preparing us for the unnumbered dangers we’ve faced. We had no idea that when you gave us all the light you did, you were guiding us to one day strike out at the darkness so fiercely.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember Rising“there is no cost too high for doing what is right and no retribution great enough for doing what is wrong. To believe otherwise is to surrender our liberty to lies.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember Rising“Picket instinctively stepped in front of Emma as the Preylords dropped lower and lower, nearing the edge of the city.
“Shuffler, you’re going to have to stop doing that,” Emma said, hooking him with her arm. “It’s ‘my place beside you,’ not ‘my place blocking your view.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember’s End“A story to make us brave.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember Rising“Being a ruler is, contrary to popular notions, a calling of self-sacrifice. That is, if one wants to be a good ruler.”
― S.D. Smith, The Black Star of Kingston“Do you even know how to use one?’ he asked.
“The sharp part at the bad guys?’
‘That’s the general idea.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember’s End“Because you loved me. Before I was anything. Before I was at all lovable, you loved me. I won’t forget.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember’s End“Dreams do … not come true,” Picket whispered back.
“Inspiring,” Emma said flatly. “That’s going in my book of Shuffler’s Collected Wisdom. I’m going to write it after the war—really show Heather who’s the true scribe.”
― S.D. Smith, Ember’s End“Good morning, Ladybug,” Helmer said, his voice a guttural rasp, as though the air he used to speak was passing through a rusty old gate.
“Good morning … Wasp?” Picket said.
“Ha,” Helmer chuckled. “I like that. But you will call me Master, child.”
“Yes, Masterchild,” Picket said.
“Well, obviously you have a deep, soul-level need for humility,”
― S.D. Smith, The Green EmberMan is born for the fight, to be forged and molded into a sharper, finer, stronger image of God
