Stephen Graham Jones
“What I am is the Indian who can’t die. I’m the worst dream America ever had.”
Stephen Graham Jones, The Buffalo Hunter Hunter

Virgil
“I will carry you on my back. This labor of love will never wear me down. Whatever falls to us now, we both will share one peril, one path to safety.”
Virgil, The Aeneid

Rosemary Sutcliff
“No, don't draw away from me. Whatever else I am, I am your son - your most wretched son. If you do not hate me, try to love me a little, Father; it is lonely never to have been loved, only devoured.”
Rosemary Sutcliff - Sword at Sunset

Aeschylus
“Pour everything out for the blood you have shed, you're wasting your time in appeasing the dead.”
Aeschylus, The Oresteia: Agamemnon, The Libation Bearers, The Eumenides

Oscar Wilde
“Yet each man kills the thing he loves,
By each let this be heard,
Some do it with a bitter look,
Some with a flattering word,
The coward does it with a kiss,
The brave man with a sword!

Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.

Some love too little, some too long,
Some sell and others buy;
Some do the deed with many tears,
And some without a sigh:
For each man kills the thing he loves,
Yet each man does not die.”
Oscar Wilde, Selected Poems of Oscar Wilde including the Ballad of Reading Gaol
