01Undated

She looked down at her bulging veins and she remembered the most important thing that she had forgotten – she was alive.

S.R. Crawford / quote

02Undated

It is very sad that most of us just aren’t grateful for what we have. If you’re reading this, I think it’s safe to assume that you’re not homeless. You’re not blind. You might be ill, but you’re still alive. And yet, we find it hard to be thankful. To see the gift each day brings us. It is from this lack of true gratitude that we become sad. We have told ourselves over and over that we aren’t happy. That our lives aren’t good. That we’re no good.

S.R. Crawford / quote

03Undated

OK then, picture daddy; whenever you’re afraid just close your eyes and picture me. I’ll be all that exists in your world and I promise to protect you.

S.R. Crawford / quote

04Undated

I still need you. Killer, boyfriend, friend, whatever…I need you in my life…if for nothing else, to show me that it’s OK to be broken. It’s OK for things not to be OK.

S.R. Crawford / quote

05Undated

You’re probably wondering what the heck I mean by “The Pillars of Your Life”, right? Well this is simple. It’s the things that make your life what it is. The things or people that make you, you. There’s work, family, your hobby, your art, and your traditions. Except, some of us have wonky pillars. Some of us give one pillar too much to hold, and the others not enough. One’s too tall, whilst the others are too small. Therefore we become unstable, and sometimes, everything comes crashing down.

S.R. Crawford / quote

06Undated

Being the people we are, and feeling the way that we do, getting excited about going somewhere new can be terrifying. Of course it is, I get it! But if you don’t travel, you’ll regret it. Your soul will forever be empty.

S.R. Crawford / quote

07Undated

Don’t you just love meeting new people in new places? It means I can be whoever I want to be. And guess what, sweet’eart? Today…I choose to be your worst nightmare.

S.R. Crawford / quote

08Undated

A fortress doesn’t fall unless its towers are weakened.

S.R. Crawford / quote

09Undated

What do you want? What do you want?...To see the world burn, and a new one be born from the ashes…

S.R. Crawford / quote

10Undated

Letti wasn’t born to pass through the world. She had been born to sit atop of it.

S.R. Crawford / quote

11Undated

For me to simply tell you to find your life’s purpose, would only worsen your anxiety, not make it better. But that’s not what I want you to do. I simply want you to realise that there is something to be found. That your calling is still out there, and that’s why you might be unhappy.

S.R. Crawford / quote

12Undated

I never tolerate disrespect or betrayal

S.R. Crawford / quote

13Undated

Why do the birds return?” “What d’you mean?” Brandon looked lost all of a sudden. “I mean, they could go anywhere. They’re free…so why do they return to this place?” Brandon grinned. “Cause home’s home no matter how bleak.

14Undated

Then I guess we have a problem…because this man, Luhan Kane, is under arrest by decree of the Elders’ Circle. My authority outweighs yours.

S.R. Crawford / quote

15Undated

You don’t even know me, or what I am capable of, boy.

S.R. Crawford / quote

16Undated

I’m scared that you’ll make me love you…and then you’ll leave me.

S.R. Crawford / quote

17Undated

Relationships take work. It isn’t true love if things go smoothly.

S.R. Crawford / quote

18Undated

You are a blue rose, Letti. It’s almost impossible that you exist amongst the other roses but you do. You bring wonder to those who are lucky enough to find you. The blue rose is lonely, lost and awaits someone special to believe in them; the same feeling I got from you the day we met. Blue roses are incomprehensible and mysterious. And so are you.

S.R. Crawford / quote

19Undated

I’m trying to figure out if you know something that I don’t, or if you’re really this stupid. You might be older and therefore a lot stronger than I am, Sphinx, but I am a mother and a lot more pissed off than you.

S.R. Crawford / quote

20Undated

The world isn’t big enough for all of us.

S.R. Crawford / quote

You can never trust a Vampire, child.

S.R. Crawford / quote

What do you want?"To see the world burn, and a new one be born from the ashes…

S.R. Crawford / quote

23Undated

The flames of their passion illuminated the dimly lit room, filling it with a blazing fire which was either brilliantly beautiful or dangerously violent.

S.R. Crawford / quote

24Undated

You think your children are better than mine? Ha! When yours were out playing with gold, mine were out fighting for survival. You taught your children to roll in money when I taught mine what it means to be strong.

S.R. Crawford / quote
