My personal favorite is "I win my fights. I don't pick fights, but I don't back down." It's incredibly motivating. It demonstrates Sarah's bravery and strength.

"I win my fights. I don't pick fights, but I don't back down."
This was undoubtedly my favorite quote in the book because the instant that I read it, I could see myself as a reflection of the bold, determined and confident Sarah.

I also like the quote, "There is no death. Only a change of worlds." I found this to be an uplifting and hopeful quote.

There are several quotes that won me over in this book but the one that stood out was from Sarah. When she was adviced to learn how to handle conflicts in the place of fighting, she reply was:
"Why? I win my fights. I don't pick fights, but I don't back down."
That was a great display of boldness and confidence. She's one who's determined to always win, she just won't back down. We can best relate this to life and it's challenges too. We should never back down.

My other favourite line is 'The Woman chooses in this world too' because as a woman, it might not always feel thay way and sometimes you need to remind yourself that you have the right to a choice
I honestly love those two quotes you listed, they speak volumes of the kind of woman Sarah is.

Ok, so I thought I was going to be slightly original here, but it seems there are a lot of strong women in this forum who share my mindset.
I also loved Sarah's quote, "I always win my fights. I don't pick fights, but I don't back down."
I feel this! I will always admit when I am wrong. I agree as demonstrated in the book that solutions can be found through partnerships and working together. I try my best to work with the best intentions, so come at me? I will end you ;)

When Sarah replied to being asked how she would handle conflicts without fighting:
"Why? I win my fights. I don't pick fights, but I don't back down. " It shows her character boldness, determination, and confidence in herself so well. One does not always pick the challenge but will they will do their best to figure it out and handle the argument, dispute, or altercation.

These must have been the most feel good moment in the book. I was impressed with Sarah's bravery.

I love your perspective about the quote. This is the reason why Victoria was easily one of my favourite characters.

The sentence itself sounds like what it is describing. The soft rolls of the first part,turning into the abruptness of "terrible kind". It seems like a contradiction to be able to sense both at once but it isn't.
Charlie Sheldon is an excellent writer. This oxymoron just describes how one be around so many people and still feel lonely.

I feel like it should be written on a platter of gold and told as a comforting words to people that are mouring.
I was reading this book at the moment my close friend had lost his father. I couldn't help marking out this quote. It is much easier to think there's a place for people after they die and it's comforting.

Myra was so positive minded. Reading most comments here people loved Sara but Myra was so considerate. She took time to introduce Sarah to her culture.
