“weren’t all marriages similar in one way or another? Once the initial passion of a relationship subsided, what remained were two people keeping each other company as they passed through”
J.M. Dalgliesh, One Lost Soul

“Looking back, I was running away from everything… and yet, once you take the time to stop and to think about it, and I mean really sit down and analyse yourself, you realise you’re not getting away from anything at all. You are your own person and it is inescapable. You’ll always have your demons with you, wherever you go or whatever you do, successes and failures, because it is all a part of you. It is all a part of the plan.”
J.M. Dalgliesh, A Long Time Dead

“It is hard to ascribe rational thought to such an irrational act.”
J.M. Dalgliesh, The Dark Yorkshire Series: Books 1-3
