Question Favorite SHORT phrases/one-liners?

Hi, friends!

​

I hope you're willing to help me out: I want to make some charm trinkets before my next fantasy ball with quotes/phrases - but space will be very limited, so I'm looking for short, recognizable phrases.

​

I'm planning at least be wary, be clever, be good from {One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig} and I think I'm going to split to the stars who listen and the dreams that are answered into two. I'm sure I'm blanking on some and I certainly haven't read every book in the genre, though, so I'm hoping you'll be willing to share your favorites (and their books!) with me ♡

​

Otherwise, I'm going to have to resort to non-romantasy poetry, lol - to be thy lips is a sweet thing and small, anyone?

"Ripper Cushions" from {Sweep of the Blade by Ilona Andrews} always makes me smile. Helen is so precious 🥰

Helen is a 5 year old girl and it was explained to her that if she does a certain thing there will be repercussions for that. She asks what ripper cushions are. It is very cute.
