Quotes by V.J. Madsen  (?)

“What I inherited from my father is the need to drink. But not regular alcohol of course. I developed a taste for a very special wine called hatred."
Jarley takes his glass of wine as he explains. "It's a bitter wine. So bitter in fact, that the uninitiated will spit it out or feel physically ill from drinking it. But some who partake in it will find little nuances to the flavor. The tangy aftertaste of indulging in violent fantasies against the object of your hatred."
He shakes the glass as he speaks. "The warm buzzed feeling from acts of spite and violence towards what you hate."
He savors the smell of the wine. "It keeps getting more noticeable the more you drink. You keep going and going, drinking and drinking, you pick apart all the layers of taste until you finally find it."
He takes a sip. "There's a hint of sweetness in the wine. You've found a sort of warm joy and comfort in the compulsion to detest the object of your hatred. Once that happens, there's no going back. You'll be hooked on the drink for life.”
