“The old adage of forgive and forget became a trudge through quicksand on a beach as high tide crashed onto the shore.”
“I am forever walking upon these shores,Betwixt the sand and the foam,The high tide will erase my foot prints,And the wind will blow away the foam,But the sea and the shore will remain forever.”
“An old bandit adage: A bell is a cup until it is struck.”
“Plant an expectation; reap a disappointment." (Quoting an old adage)”
“Rage washes through me like a fucking wave crashing against the shore. I want to kill Caleb. Beat him to death in the most painful ways.”
“That's just the way life is. Some days you wake up and the beach is clear and you forget about everything that surrounds us. And some days you wake up and it looks like this. That's the nature of the tides.”
