"It's so long before the mind can persuade itself that she whom we saw every day and whose very existence appeared a part of our own can have departed forever - that the brightness of a beloved eye can have been extinguished and the sound of a voice so familiar and dear to the ear can be hushed, never more to be heard."
"Cook my cartilage fragile and fractured, filet my heart black and broken. Wrap me in wretchedness because pain is my name and bleeding is my birthright." -Damien, @suicide_smiles
"I fed on her fluids, licking them from her ghastly dead skin, swirling her forbidden flavor, a feast of crimson nectar satisfying my blood lust." -Damien, @suicide_smiles
"As far as I could see, the old notion that a bachelor's life was so... glamorous and carefree was all nonsense. It was downright dull." -Pongo, 101 Dalmatians (1961)
"I will tie the glass and stone with string, hang the shards above my bed, so that they will flash in the dark and tell the story of Katrina, the mother that swept into the Gulf and slaughtered. Her chariot was a storm so great and black the Greeks would say it was harnessed to dragons. She was the murderous mother who cut is to the bone but left us alive, left us naked and bewildered as wrinkled newborn babies, as blind puppies, as sun starved newly hatched baby snakes. She left us a dark Gulf and salt-burned land. She left us to learn to crawl. She left us to salvage. Katrina is the mother we will remember until the next mother with large, merciless hands, committed to blood, comes." -Jesmyn Ward, Salvage the Bones
