“I felt like you could open a door in my hollow, tin chest--just flip it open, easy--and see my heart throbbing, raw and bloody and sore. You could even reach in and squish it if you wanted to. I didn't want anyone getting close enough to open that door and see that mess (250-251).”

“But it doesn't take a thousand men to open a door, my lord.""It might to keep it open.”
“She opened my closet door just the tiniest crack. So I could breathe.”
