Quotes by LaToya Watkins (?)

“Everybody wants to say bye, show the dying that they here and they somehow living on in spite of everything.”

“Some things cannot be put together with words without taking the soul apart.”

“We ride in silence, except for Grandaddy's humming. I doubt he's ever been in the front seat of a police cruiser, but he's not in awe. He's humming what sounds like a blues song, and I don't know what to say to break the absence of words. I've never been close to him. It was always her. Always me and her.

And I wonder why. Wonder what it is I love about her. Wonder what she loved about me. She was my focal point before I ever realized we all needed one. My hope in her forgiveness is what has carried me across all these years. All I've ever wanted to do is make things right with her. Feel like making things right with her might heal me.”
― LaToya Watkins, Perish
