The night was very beautiful and warm, and they were both young."

"so in a way they would always be fighting together. the letters were W and H."

"my will. those words meant something different to jem than to anyone else, meant: my defiance against encroaching dark. my rebellion. mine, forever."

"There were those who believed that because Jem was so kind, so capable of gentleness and generosity, because Jem loved so selflessly, that Jem was weak. There were those who suspected he was not capable of violence or vengeance, who assumed they could hurt Jem and the ones he-

Those who believed this were wrong.
Those who acted on it would be sorry."

“Train with me,” said Kit.
Jem smiled.
“What?” Kit asked anxiously. “Do you . . . not want to?”
“I said that to somebody once,” said Jem. “A long time ago. He did train with me. And now I’ll train you.”

😭
Kit hesitated, then said, “Will?” and Jem nodded. “Do you . . .” Kit bit his lip. “Do you still think about him a lot?”
“I loved him better than I love myself,” said Jem. “I still do. I think about him every day.”
