“Akthent on thee latht thyllable.”
Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho

Pamela Branch
“I didn't have a motive. I didn't to it. You did. What are you writing?"

"Motive - Don't know."

"What do you mean Don't know? I tell you I hadn't got one. Put None."

"You must have one. If you kill people without one, you're mad.”
Pamela Branch, Lion in the Cellar
