“I know the topography of her rage, the contours of her vengeance. But it isn't a place to stay....I put my arms around her...for trying to find me in the soil and broken glass, I will always try to free her from this. But she won't come today.”
― Ella King

“Sometimes being a bitch is all a woman's got to hold on to.”
― Stephen King, Dolores Claiborne

“That's your solution? To stay? For money?"

She shakes her head, as if I don't understand. "It's not just the money. What you said is protection; she can never hurt us again. Any time she tries to piss us off, sublet our flats, refuse to pay our tuition fees, we just mention the shed." Here eyes are luminous. "Don't you see? This is our inheritance.”
― Ella King, Bad Fruit

“The courage of husbands is directly proportionate to the proximity of the wife.”
― Steven Erikson, Fall of Light
