― Colette Moody, The Sublime and Spirited Voyage of Original Sin

“She’d neglected makeup entirely, and those damn black eyes lent her the appearance of a raccoon. A raccoon that had gotten hit in the face. After a lifetime of poor nutrition. The silence was broken only by the humming of the lift, and it felt conspicuous.”
― Daniel O'Malley, The Rook

“I've always believed," she replied, "that if God is going to be strict about anything, that He will be strict about the rules concerning hate, not love. And if two people love each other, that has to be better than two people hating each other. Beyond that, it's for God to sort out. I'm too frail to be such a judge.”
― J.M. Redmann, Deaths of Jocasta

“Shantay: She's not going in alone. I'm going in with her.
Myfanwy: Absolutely not. There may be legal precedents for you coming along to observe, but can you imagine the repercussions if a Bishop of the Croatoan was harmed on a Checquy op?
Shantay: Yeah, but you'll probably be dead too, so it's not like it'll be your problem.
Myfanwy: Well, then, as long it causes me no inconvenience.”
― Daniel O'Malley, The Rook
