“Trust is a good way to get oneself killed”

“Trust is a careless pursuit at best. At worst, it's a good way to get yourself killed.”

“Strangling is the most intimate way to kill someone,”

“In this lifetime you're nothing more than you appear to be: a stupid, selfish, ignorant, spoiled little girl who thinks the world lives or dies on whether she gets to go out with some good-looking boy at school...I'd still relish this moment...killing you.”

“Trust is a careless pursuit.”

“Oh, jeez, please kill that metaphor,...Or kill me. One or the other.”

“Sometimes love needed a lift from its guardian angels, to get its feet off the ground. But once it made its first early beats toward flight, it had to be trusted to take wing on its own and soar past the highest conceivable heights, into the heavens-and beyond.”
