“I know what it is to spit yer hate at skies above. But I also know there is nothing in that deed that does not make yer anger worse. There's nae joy to be found in embracing rage that isn't fleeing. In the end, it only deepens the darkness within. And so, it must - can only - be wrong.”

“When you die, it’s going to fucking destroy me.”
Joe uses what little strength he has to push her feet of the bed. “Good. It should destroy you. If nothing can destroy you, Logan, then what’s the point?”

“BOOM! Gabriel roared, leaping in his chair and clapping his hands.
Jean-François paused his writing, raised an eyebrow.
‘Must you, Silversaint?’
'Must I what?'
‘Carry on like a drunken troubadour in a brothel pantomime.'
Gabriel shrugged, refilling his goblet. 'In life, always do what you love.”

“It’s a strange thing, to be a sibling. So much rancor and love. Hate and history. It’s a bond forged in iron, that tie. It takes a great deal of work to sunder it entirely. But it can be done.”

“You don’t understand, Dad,” she blathers into the phone, but the truth is, she doesn’t understand, either. She doesn’t know why it’s so hard for her to let in that hurt. “I…I don’t know how to love halfway,” she reasons aloud. “I don’t know how to care just a little bit. If I let myself care at all, I’m going to care with every ounce of my being. And if I do that, and I lose them, it will hurt like hell.”
She’s not sure if she’s talking about Joe or Rosemary or both of them. The sun is blinding and she can’t see a thing.
“And…and I don’t know how to hurt halfway, either,” she continues. “I don’t know how to feel anything in moderation.”
There is silence on the other end this time. “Ah, but Chicken,” her dad says immediately. “Your big feelings are one of the most beautiful things about you.”
