Quotes by Rue Volley (?)

“only let the one you love bite.”
― Rue Volley

“strange but true in the land of Rue”
― Rue Volley

“My Father had shown he did not truly love my Mom when he beat her and she had shown me that she would rather just leave than fight the disease that may or may not have killed her, abandoning me to his abuse. But to fucking TRY, at least try to make it work, is what being human is all about. It is not being a cunt to each other and trying to tear each other down, it is protecting, even when you don’t really know someone, believing that life is still important and if you find that in yourself, then salvation is truly yours.”
― Rue Volley, Prince of Fire
