The fact that Ged becomes a house-husband at the end of Earthsea so his wife and daughter can go and save the world makes me love him even more

“All that I might have been and couldn’t be. All the choices I didn’t make. All the things I lost and spent and wasted. I can give them back to the world. To the lives that haven’t been lived yet.
That will be my gift back to the world that gave me the life I did live, the love I loved, the breath I breathed."
Image description: a digital painting of Tehanu, cropped at the bust. Tehanu is a young woman with dark skin and eyes and long curly black hair caught in a breeze. A burn scar covers the left side of her face and her left eye. She wears a purple shawl and a blue dress over a white shirt. She looks sad and she is starkly lit from behind with an orange light. The air around her is black, smokey and full of sparks.
End ID.

“I think that when I die, I can breathe back the breath that made me live. I can give back to the world all that I didn't do. All that I might have been and couldn't be. All the choices I didn't make. All the things I lost and spent and wasted. I can give them back to the world. To the lives that haven't been lived yet. That will be my gift back to the world that gave me the life I did live, the love I loved, the breath I breathed.”

"I think," Tehanu said in her soft, strange voice, "that when I die, I can breathe back the breath that made me live. I can give back to the world all that I didn't do. All that I might have been and couldn't be. All the choices I didn't make. All the things I lost and spent and wasted. I can give them back to the world. To the lives that haven't been lived yet. That will be my gift back to the world that gave me the life I did live, the love I loved, the breath I breathed."
~ Ursula K. Le Guin, from The Other Wind

She looked up at the stars and sighed. "Not for a long time yet," she whispered.
