“A family is a messy unwieldy thing bounded only by blood andbeneath all the embarrassmentaffection.”
“We're all family--the only family we've got. It doesn't have to be blood.”
“We're only human James, bound by flesh and blood to do the wrong thing." ~Lena Jefferson from The Other Sister”
“Blood is one thing, but that’s not all that goes into family. The family you choose is the family that really matters. They’re the ones who’ll keep you standing.”
“No blood at all. I could hear that phrase repeat itself in my head, louder each time. No sticky, hot, messy, awful blood. No splatter. NO BLOOD AT ALL. Why hadn't I thought of that?”
“The fourth is there just to keep them in order because three of anything is bound to get messy.”
