“Bianca Olivier- Hear me out. Would you eat a hamburger if there was any chance it could punch you in the face? Lucas Ross- How is a hamburger supposed to punch me in the face?”

“You're alive, Bianca. You still can't appreciate what it means, to be alive. It's better than being a vampire - better than anything else in the world.
