“My name is Mary Katherine Blackwood. I am eighteen years old, and I live with my sister Constance. I have often thought that with any luck at all, I could have been born a werewolf, because the two middle fingers on both my hands are the same length, but I have had to be content with what I had. I dislike washing myself, and dogs, and noise. I like my sister Constance, and Richard Plantagenet, and Amanita phalloides, the death-cup mushroom. Everyone else in our family is dead.”
― Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle

“Jim said that bees won't sting idiots, but I didn't believe that, because I tried them lots of times myself and they wouldn't sting me.”

“What if she was meant to be, or could have been, someone important in my life? I think that's what scares me: the randomness of everything.

How do you know...I felt that by walking away I was abandoning [them], that I spent my entire life, day after day, abandoning people.”
― Peter Cameron, Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You

“The things you used to own, now they own you.”
