“I wonder if you can inherit evil.'
'Maybe. Or maybe it's not something you inherit, but something that runs through you, another person's trauma, their violence. It sits below the skin until you name it. And you root it out like a cancer.”

“Astonishingly, the founding strain of Puritanism brought to Massachusetts by a few dozen bleak souls in 1620 exited until quite recently in the American character . . . despite the American reputation for prudery, many of our leaders have had a colorful sexual past.”

“— You’re beautiful.
— Don’t get all soft on me.
— Too late for that, you’ve ruined me. You smell so good. I can’t get it out of my head, and it drives me wild. I’ll be going about my day and get a whiff of jasmine and who the fuck knows what else, something so distinctly you, and suddenly you’re all I can think about. I tried to keep my distance from you, you know. Tried to banish you from my mind, for both of our sakes. But fighting what I felt for you was more of a distraction than giving in. It was over for me the moment I saw you punch that guy in the face at Vern’s.”
― To Cage a Wild Bird
