“Because I can’t talk? Because I can’t tell you how fucking breathtaking you are every second of every day? Because I can’t breathe without being near you? Someone like me… I’m different—I can’t be normal for you. I can’t defend you without using my fists or my bat, and I can’t touch you at the same time as telling you that you’re everything to me. I can’t whisper sweet nothings into your mouth and I can’t fucking marry you because not only am I your brother, but I’m defective.”
― Leigh Rivers, Little Stranger

“Never. It's not an option for me. Do you know what a rook does in chess?" She shook her head and I wrapped my arms around her. "He protects the queen. He can't take her down, he can't win against her. He only protects her. If you want to be queen of it all, I will cut down anyone in your way. I won't stop you or lock you up and yes, I would happily kill anyone who bothers you.”
― Kate Crew, Rook & Rebel
