“It’s a situation, being invisible. You can get to a point of needing to make the loudest possible noise just to see if you are still alive.”
― Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

“The moral of his story was how you never know the size of hurt that’s in people’s hearts, or what they’re liable to do about it, given the chance.”
― Barbara Kingsolver, Demon Copperhead

“Maybe that's what love really is. Not soft edges and pretty promises, but a choice. A brutal, unwavering decision to be something more for the person who sees every ugly part of you and refuses to turn away.”
― Jazlyn Sparrow, THREE SCARS

“If you stay, I promise to give you the best love story ever told, every day, for the rest of our lives. I was forced into the shadows, and I’ve made my home here. But I’ve only ever wanted to share a life with someone. Like my parents shared. The kind of love that consumes you in life and leaves you a shell when the other goes too soon. I used to feel sorry for my mother, but some days she gets to escape to a world where the love of her life still exists. He’s not just a phantom, he is her everything. I want to be that for you, with you. I want one love that survives this lifetime.”
― Greer Rivers, Phantom
