“But, Isobel thought with a bleak and sad smile, what better place to bury what was dead than in a cemetery?”
“Why not rise from the grave and terrorize a little instead of staying buried and dead in the cemetery?”
“The lively is always more contemplative than what is dead and sad.”
“Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad”
“Better off dead than giving in; not taking what you want.”
