“And we won’t. We will return to Chateau le Blanc for Toulouse. For the wolves. Then we will raze that wretched castle to the ground with Morgane le Blanc and her Dames Blanches inside. This I promise you.”

“You probably think I’m a prude.’
‘So? You shouldn’t care what we think, Célie- or anyone else, for that matter. Don’t forfeit your power like that.’
‘Because who cares if you’re a prude? Who cares if we’re whores? They’re just words.’
‘And we can’t get it right no matter what we do. We might as well do it our own way. Being a prude or being a whore are both better than being what they want us to be.’
‘What do they want us to be?’
‘Theirs.’
‘Be prudish and proud, Célie. We’ll be whorish and happy.”

“Sometimes,' she said, 'if someone dies too young, they've never really felt guilt before. Not the way you feel it at the end. It hits them too hard. They act . . . rashly. You have to be careful. You have to soothe them. If they won't be moved, if they really don't want to survive death, then you have to honour that. But if you can, you stop them. You understand?”

“I don't know what Marian's told you, but you can't do everything yourself. No one's going to hurt you. Tell me what you need.”

“I became a thief, Manon. I squatted in dirty theaters and stole food from innocent bakers. I did bad things to good people. I killed. I lied and cheated and smoked and drank and even slept with a prostitute once. So it amounts to the same thing. I’ll burn in hell either way.”
