“A man who cannot lie has not necessarily been given a virtue. He may have been placed under a condition. An obligation. Possibly even a punishment.”
― Erika Killen, The Seventh Line: The Learmoth Series I

“I liked that the widow remained angry after she became competent. Most stories reward a woman’s usefulness by making her pleasant.”

“Because I was afraid to die, furious that everyone expected me to do it politely, and vain enough to want more than twenty-eight years.”
― Erika Killen, After the Last Sunrise: Book One of the Last Sunrise Trilogy

“He is often remembered as the great lover who braved the underworld. But that is the flattering version. The crueler version is that Eurydice is asked to follow him out without explanation, without reassurance, without being told why trust has become the only bridge between death and life.”
― Erika Killen, After the Last Sunrise: Book One of the Last Sunrise Trilogy

“I have watched language discard words I loved. Every private memory eventually becomes history, and people begin asking you to correct the footnotes.”
