Quotes by James Vance (?)

“Grief has it's own music, Iris -- it lilts and trills and pierces the Heavens... For days in this place, it's been a symphony. Sometimes, one song of loss will endure, a solo of sustained beauty and pain... And that's when I come... I'm here to bring your song to an end. I'm here to bring you peace.”
― James Vance, The Crow: Flesh & Blood
