Are you a fan of A Court of Mist and Fury? Then you’ll love these A Court of Mist and Fury quotes! This list of ACOMAF quotes includes the very best from this amazing book.
A Court of Mist and Fury (or ACOMAF) is the second book in Sarah J Maas’ A Court of Thorns and Roses series and one of her very best books. Whilst A Court of Thorns and Roses was good, ACOMAF is where it really kicks off.
To recap:
Feyre is back in the Spring Court having survived a terrible ordeal under the Mountain at the hands of the evil Amarantha.
She made a bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the Night Court that she would have to stay with him every month, much to Tamlin’s horror.
However, Feyre’s visits to the Night Court are not as terrible as she thought they would be and she sees a completely different side to the feared High Lord.
She develops a bond with him and the two fall passionately in love. This brings out the saucier side to the ACOTAR series and I am totally here for it.
Without further ado, here are some of the very best A Court of Mist and Fury quotes.

“There are different kinds of darkness,” Rhys said. I kept my eyes shut. “There is the darkness that frightens, the darkness that soothes, the darkness that is restful.” I pictured each. “There is the darkness of lovers, and the darkness of assassins. It becomes what the bearer wishes it to be, needs it to be. It is not wholly bad or good.”

“I’ll say this once – and only once. You can be a pawn, be someone’s reward, and spend the rest of your immortal life bowing and scraping and pretending you’re less than him, than Ianthe, than any of us. If you want to pick that road, then fine. A shame, but it’s your choice. But I know you – more than you realise, I think – and I don’t believe for one damn minute that you’re remotely fine with being a pretty trophy for someone who sat on his ass for nearly fifty years then sat on his ass while you were shredded apart.”
– Rhysand, Chapter 7, p61
“But I wouldn’t sit in my room, couldn’t allow myself to mourn and mope and weep and sleep. So I would venture out, even if it was an agony…”
– Feyre, Chapter 15, p111
“I once lived in a place where the opinion of others mattered. It suffocated me, nearly broke me. So you’ll understand me, Feyre, when I say that I know what you feel, and I know what they tried to do to you, and that with enough courage, you can say to hell with a reputation. You do what you love, what you need”
– Mor, Chapter 16, p134
“I was not prey any longer, I decided as I eased up to that door.
And I was not a mouse.
I was a wolf.”– Feyre, Chapter 20, p162
“I was not a pet, not a doll, not an animal.
I was a survivor, and I was strong.
I would not be weak, or helpless again
I would not, could not be broken. Tamed.”– Feyre, Chapter 21, p169
“There are good days and hard days for me—even now. Don’t let the hard days win.”
– Mor, Chapter 22, p178
“No one was my master— but I might be master of everything, if I wished. If I dared.”
– Feyre, Chapter 33, p236
“A queen who owned her body, her life, her destiny, and never apologised for it.”
– Feyre, Chapter 42, p298
“I wonder if some part of me knew what was waiting for me. That I would never be a gentle grower of things, or someone who burned like fire—but that I would be quiet and enduring and as faceted as the night. That I would have beauty, for those who knew where to look, and if people didn’t bother to look, but to only fear it … Then I didn’t particularly care for them, anyway. I wonder if, even in my despair and hopelessness, I was never truly alone. I wonder if I was looking for this place—looking for you all.”
– Feyre, Chapter 47, p357
