I was especially inspired by Tamora Pierce's Tortall series, especially her 'The Immortals' series. And the Narnia books of course. And I'm always inspired by Diana Wynne Jones--I can't recommend her books highly enough. (less)

Quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Fear's useless. Either something bad happens or it doesn't: If it doesn't, you've wasted time being afraid, and if it does, you've wasted time that you could have spent sharpening your weapons.”
Sarah Rees Brennan, The Demon's Lexicon

“I am in full possession of the amazing power of being sarcastic.”
Sarah Rees Brennan, The Demon's Covenant

“Hark,” he said, his tone very dry. “What stone through yonder window breaks?”
Kami yelled up at him, “It is the east, and Juliet is a jerk!”
Jared abandoned Shakespeare and demanded, “What do you think you’re doing?”
“Throwing a pebble,” said Kami defensively. “Uh… and I’ll pay for the window.”
Jared vanished and Kami was ready to start shouting again, when he reemerged with the pebble clenched in his fist. “This isn’t a pebble! This is a rock.”
“It’s possible that your behaviour has inspired some negative feelings that caused me to pick a slightly overlarge pebble,” Kami admitted.”
Sarah Rees Brennan, Unspoken

“A small daily task, if it be really daily, will beat the labours of a spasmodic Hercules.”
Anthony Trollope

“I don't have your way with words "Sin said. "So I'm just going to go with a quick response. Ha”
Sarah Rees Brennan, The Demon's Surrender

“I can smite you " Nick grumbled. "Anytime I like.”
Sarah Rees Brennan, The Demon's Surrender

“We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.”
Ursula K. LeGuin

“Lots of kids in books are only-child orphans, but I think it’s fun to have family as part of the adventure, to have familial love be as important as romantic love, and to show that love can go through fire and darkness - not unchanged, because experiences like that change everyone - but never faltering”
Sarah Rees Brennan

Daniel Been to Dublin. loved it and included it in two of my books, Sarah. Are they still giving FREE Guinness when you take the Guinness plant tour? I wrote that in a foggy night you could tell where you were in Dublin by sniffing how close you were to the aroma of the Guinness factory.
