Esmé Bianco: Eliza

Quotes 

• Eliza : Can I level with you?

  Quentin Coldwater : I wish you would.

  Eliza : You're not very remarkable. You're smart, but no genius. You do magic, but nothing special. And the worst is, you're so eager to belong, you even forget why you're here.

  Quentin Coldwater : Why *am* I here?

  Eliza : You dreamed of it, didn't you, "Fillory", before the attack, like a warning?

  Quentin Coldwater : Yeah, did you - how did you...?

  Eliza : Because I've dreamed of it too. And I've looked into that Beast's eyes. What? Do you think you have a destiny?

  Quentin Coldwater : Um, yes

  Eliza : Yeah. I used to believe that crap too when I was young. There is no destiny, no born heroes. I can't tell you why - why The Beast came sniffing for you. There's no reason it should be you. You can either step up to it or not, it's up to you. We'll just hope for the best.

• Dean Fogg : All we can do is make them magicians.

  Eliza : That's not enough.

  Dean Fogg : I know.
