“Once far enough removed, everyone will be properly aghast that any of this was allowed to happen. But for now, it's just so much safer to look away, to keep ones head down, periodically checking on the balance of polite society to see if it is not too troublesome yet to state what to the conscience was never unclear.” had to stop writing down quotes bc i was basically writing the whole book

“blue sargent had forgotten how many times she’d been told that she would kill her true love.” HARDEST OPENING LINE OF ALL TIME!!!!!! hehe my babies are coming home

nan goldin’s protest at the met just sent me over the edge

"Poor people in the inner city and in the backwoods of Kentucky almost never have the luxury of thinking about their 'duty to society. They are surviving day to day," he wrote. Their "criminal intent" is "driven not by greed or hatred, but by a powerful addiction. I'd bet any sum of money the vast majority of abusers don't want to be addicts." THIS

you cannot be a True Lover without being a True Hater. “The adults at school thought he was cold and hard, that he didn't have feelings.It was the opposite that was the problem, for God's sake. This was a boy who cared about animals and cilantro and hated fighting. He only fought for those he loved. So the artist lived in constant fear that one day Joar would love someone so much that he would end up in prison.”

my notes page of quotes from this book is already 4 scrolls long. i am quite fearful.

i’m ready to be transformed
