“Nothing is so convincing as someone who's a bewildered injured party and lets everybody know it.”
― Robert Ludlum, The Matlock Paper

“If you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat these two imposters just the same ... If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you ... If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run ... you'll be a Man, my son!”
― Rudyard Kipling

“The issue isn't whether he loved you, it's how much. Too much. Love can be poison”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Mist and Fury

“The town draws a veil over certain events. This is a small community where everyone knows that sometimes the contract to forget is as important as any promise to remember. Children can grow up having no knowledge of the indiscretion of their father in his youth or the illegitimate sibling who lives fifty miles away and bears another man’s name. History is that which is agreed upon by mutual consent. That’s how life goes on; protected by the silence that anaesthetises shame.”
― M.L. Stedman, The Light Between Oceans
