Quotes by Tara Sim  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You're everything. You're... You're chaos and order and everything between. Like sunshine kept back by clouds. Like the entire world's imploded inside you, but all I see are the stars are sewn into your skin. You're filled with soft, dark music. I hear it all the time. Your music.”
Tara Sim, Timekeeper

“There comes a moment when time seems to slip faster, running long then short, shadows shrinking as the sun climbs. It’s the moment, he decided, when you’re no longer a child. When the concept of time and the need for more of it come together and make you powerless. Make you yearn for the longer days, the lazy days, before you knew what time passing actually meant.”
Tara Sim, Timekeeper

“I would have kissed you if you were a girl. I would have kissed you if you were purple.”
Tara Sim, Timekeeper
