Quotes by Rick Wood (?)

“To be someone’s soulmate, to be destined to be the one, suggests you have to stay together because it’s set out by the universe, and they are the only one for you. Whereas, if you admit that there could be many people for you, but you make it work with one person despite there being many others you could be with, that is really special. To be with a person because you want to, when you could have a vast array of suitors — that is love.”
― Rick Wood, Roses Are Red, So Is Your Blood: A Horror Anthology About the Darker Side of Love

“Luke Skywalker wants to go to the Death Star. And? And rescue Princess Leia. So what? Because it is important to him. And? And if he doesn’t, he won’t discover what he is capable of. And there it is – the crux of the story.”
