“Nine out of ten significant people have to do with money or war!”

“(You do not have to be shamed in my closeness. Family are the people who must never make you feel ashamed.)”

“Sometimes, death only means the end of all old memories.”

“For this moment, this one moment, we are together. I press you to me. Come, pain, feed on me. Bury your fangs in my flesh. Tear me asunder. I sob, I sob.”
