Frances Hardinge Quotes

But I'm Afraid To Sleep!" Whispered Trista. "What If I Fall To Pieces Before I Wake Up? What If Tomorrow I'm Just A Pile Of Leaves And Sticks Tucked Under A Blanket? What If This Is The Last Time I've Got Left, And I Waste It All Being Asleep, Then Wake Up Dead?"
For A Moment Violet Looked Conflicted. Then Her Jaw Set, And She Took Trista By The Shoulders.
"You Won't," She Said Gently But Firmly. "I'll Make Sure You Don't. I'll Be Watching You Sleep. And If Your Hair Starts To Turn Into Leaves, Or Anything Like That, I'll Wake You Up."
"You Promise?" Trista Felt The Icy, Titanic Force Of Her Terror Recede A Step Or Two. "You ... You Won't Leave Me When I Sleep And Go Out?"
"I Promise," Said Violet, With A Firmness In Her Tone That Allowed No Doubt. Her Dark Grey Eyes Were Resolute As Flint.
