“They like their coffee like they like their ex-boyfriends: bitter.”

“I only steal because my dear old family needs the money to live!"
Locke Lamora made this proclamation with his wine glass held high; he and the other Gentleman Bastards were seated at the old witchwood table. . . . The others began to jeer.

"I only steal," said Jean, "because I've temporarily fallen in with bad company."
"LIAR!"

"BASTARD!”
