“she held back a laugh and looked at cassian. the man who’d betrayed her. the man who’d admitted his guilt and decided to fight for her. he saw her staring and looked at her quizzically. it wasn’t how betrayals were supposed to go.”

"He stowed thoughts of old missions and thoughts of the future away; decided to focus on what he could see and hear and smell for the last moments of his life on Scarif.
When Cassian Andor died, he would be ready, and he would be content."

"He was almost out of time, and all he could think was: I'm sorry, everyone. Sorry for promising what I couldn't deliver. Sorry for not coming up with a better plan.
He'd tried. That counted for something, didn't it?"

He’d bartered his ideals and the lives of others away, one by one, to find a victory that would make it all worthwhile. Yet as he watched the pulsing lights of the turbolift he felt keenly that neither victory nor defeat would change the terrible things in his past. Jyn couldn’t give him what he’d come for.
That was the crux of it, really.
Because he’d given her what she needed, and he’d done the mission right, and he found that was enough.
She believed someone was out there. Maybe it was even true. He did want it to be true. With all his heart, he did.
Her faith carried him with her.

“She wanted to shout, but she lacked the strength. She wanted to laugh at the heavens, at the fleet and the Death Star, but she lacked the strength for that, too. Instead she turned to Cassian, who still waited in the smoke. She stumbled to him, smiling like a child, and did not speak.”
