“Don’t defend that piece of trash just because you belonged to the Marjorie-got-me-off club in high school, Will,” Morgan interjected, pulling a chair over to sit next to Paisley. “It wasn’t very selective.”
HAHAHAHAHA
“Pain will subside only when we acknowledge it and care for it. Addressing it with love and compassion would take only a minuscule percentage of the energy it takes to fight it, but approaching pain head-on is terrifying. Most of us were not taught to recognize pain, name it, and be with it. Our families and culture believed that the vulnerability that it takes to acknowledge pain was weakness, so we were taught anger, rage, and denial instead. But what we know now is that when we deny our emotion, we can rebuild and find our way through the pain.”

“In the room, Phoebe feels disappointed to return to the facts of her own life, to the night she will spend in the Roaring Twenties all alone. Not to mention, the life she will spend alone. And why does she do this? Why does she have a nice day with people, feel connected to them, and then, when alone, think only about the possible horrors of her isolation ahead?”

“-La mort de Cedric Diggory a été un tragique accident, dit-elle d’un ton glacial.
-C’était un meurtre, répliqua Harry.
Il se sentait trembler. Il n’avait quasiment jamais parlé de cela à personne, encore moins à une classe de trente élèves qui le dévoraient les yeux.
-Voldemort l’a tué et vous le savez très bien.”

“It is nice, this ritual. She likes that there is a specific phrase for it, this turning down of the room, this recognition that the night is something we must prepare for. Because the night is hard... She would crawl into bed and think of all the different women she could have become. All the different ways better women end their days. How did Mia end her day? She didn't know why the end of each day always felt like such a test, but it did. It felt like a rehearsal for the end of life, which did not bode well for her, because Phoebe often did it with a drink in her hand, watching endless episodes of some period drama. Phoebe turned on all the lights at home and then her TV and lowered the woofer because the sounds of the British rifles were too realistic.”
