“Sometimes laying in my bed, I would think that I should have died because I deserved to.”

“...a pie so delicate, so luscious, that I hope to be propped up on my dying bed and fed a generous portion. Then I think that I should refuse outright to die, for life would be too good to relinquish.”

“They all deserve to die. Even you, Mrs. Lovett Even I. Because the lives of the wicked should be made briefFor the rest of us death would be relief.”

“His was the holiest face I ever saw. My very name turned holy on his tongue. If he had bade me rise and follow to the end of time, I would have gone. If he had bade me die for him, I would have died. When I deserved it least, God gave me most. I think it was the savior's face I saw.”

“Sometimes I discover I have changed my mind because I have forgotten what I used to think.”

“Ellie, I would rather die than ever break your heart. I have never in my life felt like this. I would lay down my life for you if i had to. I love you baby”
