To celebrate the birthday of this series, what are some of your favorite quotes?
One that immediately comes to mind for me is “I have traveled so far and loved so much, and yet I am still following the Sun Trail, heading for my new hunting grounds.” -Gray Wing, Path of Stars, page 308.

Reposting this from a previous thread:
It takes a strong cat to see the future, instead of getting lost in the past - Echosong
The decisions I make may not always be right, but they are based on reason and experience - Firestar
This defeat for us is a chance to grow stronger. Defeat meant a chance to come back better, stronger, swifter in the next battle. There was no self-pity, no blame, just the certainty that next time things would be different - Flametail
Mistakes are where we learn the most - Bluestar
Wrong according to one code, but there are other ways to judge what we do - Yellowfang
(Omen of the Stars has some good quotes imo)

Despite the arc's flaws, OOTS has a lot of good content - like the quotes. - Less about the actual words being said and more about the imagery, I really liked in the beginning of Fading Echoes when Jayfeather used the symbol of a nettle to describe Dovepaw's grief towards Rippletail: "I can tell that you're troubled and I can feel your grief. It's like a nettle in your heart, stinging any paw that tries to pluck it out." And later on the text says, "Jayfeather had managed to touch the nettle in her heart and release its sting." Idk why, but that part has always stuck with me, even if it's a minor scene. I think I just like the symbolism.

DEFINITELY Yellowfang's death scene dialogue. That was so good. I remember Fireheart saying something along the lines of "but he had to be killed" (in reference to Brokenstar) and Yellowfang responding with "I know, but I was his mother." She really did love Brokenstar, to the very end of his life.
Bluestar's death scene dialogue was very good too. I loved it. And the scene where they're fighting at Sunningrocks and Mistyfoot and Stonefur corner Bluestar, and Fireheart stops them from attacking her by revealing the secret.

still a sucker for Leafpool and Hollyleaf’s confrontation:
“I’ve lost my kits, the one cat I loved, and my calling as a medicine cat. Which do you think would be easier for me? To die, or to go on living?”- Leafpool

"Isn't there joy in simply being alive?"--Jayfeather, Night Whispers. Bonus points for Jayfeather calling out Millie's ableism, because she was basically saying that there is no way Briarlight can be fulfilled or happy while being partially paralyzed.

“What future lies ahead for a cat whose scars remind them forever of this living nightmare.” Is such an underrated quote. I think it’s from A Dangerous Path.

I gotta ask, what page or at least chapter is this in? I gotta find it!
