“Secrets are like the cancer of families. Like tumors, they grow ever larger, and if they are not removed, they suffocate the mind and spirit, and spawn madness. As long as they remain, they cast a shadow on every truth that is uttered, clouding it, constricting it, disporting it.

And even once the secret is out, its shadow echoes into the future, the remnants of its memory leaving us vigilant and fearful.”
