“When I was younger, I used to think it was this single memory that saved me from Kacey's fate, that made me the way I am and Kacey the way she is. The sound of my mother's voice, which I can still hear, and its gentleness, which I always took to be evidence of her love for me. The knowledge that there was once a person in the world who loved me more than anything. In some ways, I still think this is true.”
― Liz Moore
