“Love makes you want to be a better man—right, right. But maybe love, real love, also gives you permission to just be the man you are.”
― Gillian Flynn, Gone Girl

“Because if I had learned anything, I had learned enough to know that a god in pain is dangerous.”
― Jennifer Saint, Ariadne

“Why mortals bloomed like flowers and crumbled to nothing? Why their absence left a gnawing ache, a hollow void that could never be filled? And how everything they once were, the spark within them, could be extinguished so completely yet the world did not collapse under the weight of so much pain and grief.”
― Jennifer Saint, Ariadne

“What I did not know was that I had hit upon a truth of womanhood: However blameless the life we lead, the passions and the greed of men could bring us to ruin, and there was nothing we could do.”
― Jennifer Saint, Ariadne
