Poisoned Well Quotes

“Truth is a well we all draw from and slowly poison, as we use it in ways for which it was never intended.”
― Stewart Stafford

“The worst part of feeling poisoned was that it seemed to wipe out anything in me that was gentle and intelligent and funny— all the things my mother had loved about me. I was devastated to think that if she had ever been able to come back, I might already be unrecognizable to her.”
― Sarah Perry, After the Eclipse: A Mother's Murder, a Daughter's Search
