“You’re correct that I’ve never experienced poverty, but you’ve never experienced a man you’ve grown up with for 20 years, more brother than friend, try to assassinate you because another man wanted what was yours. You’ve never had your older sister gouge you in the leg with a throwing star and try to end your life. You’ve never had to live every day knowing the only thing between you and a body bag is a good bodyguard and the people who would kill you being too afraid of what you’d do if they failed.”
― Sam Mariano, Accidental Witness

“I never gave her a mating gift, and I want to give her this today so I can put a baby in her tonight.”

“Every devil needs an angel. And she was mine.”
