Truth Revealed Quotes

“The problem is the teacher, and within its shadow hides the light. When you face it with stillness and trust, the veil lifts and the truth reveals itself.”
― Pamela Cox

“You, Brigid, and Phoebe must begin the revolution."
"Brigid?" The name didn't ring any bells.
In a flash the serene flower child was gone. In her place was a pissed-off mom. "Oh, for fuck's sake," Flora said. "Your mother didn't tell you about Brigid?"
"I guess not," Sybil replied. "Who is she?"
Flora shook her head in disbelief. "Your aunt. She uses her father's last name, Laguerre, as a stage name."
"Brigid Laguerre?" The shock sent Sybil's mind reeling. "Holy shit. That's why I was never allowed to see her movies? The Queen of the Dark is my aunt?"
"Yes, and she'll be here on Wild Hill soon. Your mother will be coming as well."
"Good," Sibyl said darkly. "I can't wait."
"I'm expecting you to keep the peace when they get here."
Sibyl refused with a shake of her head. "Me? Oh, hell no. I have a bone to pick with Mommy Dearest.”

“Your stepmother told me that you weren't interested in helping me!"
Brigid snorted. "You spoke to Sienna Laguerre? When?"
"Right after you turned eighteen. I sent you a letter you never answered, so I got the attorney to give me your dad's phone number, and when I called your stepmother answered."
"My stepmom? You mean the monster who tortured me every goddamned day until I got my first movie gig and moved the hell out of her house? The stepmother I haven't spoken to since that happened? The stepmother who was the inspiration for the life-sucking demon in the first film I wrote?"
Phoebe pulled in a deep breath and held it. "Fuck," she sighed as she set it free. Sibyl was right. She'd been an idiot to listen to Brigid's stepmother.”
