“How is it that you can go from decent human being to complete jackass in zero-point-two seconds? Did they teach you that in The Eye?"He stopped, and his eyes glided over my lips."Actually, I'm just trying to see if I can make you mad enough to kiss me again.”

“You can stick to your immovable zero-tolerance rules, but I'm going to stick to the motto "There's hope until the last second'!”

I can do without nembutal or murder mysteries but not without suicide. ”
