“She lived in her past life- these relics and remembrances of dead affection were all that was left her in the world.”

“Any relic of the dead is precious, if they were valued living”

“An introverted person obviously affected by her past. Lived alone, had no sex life, had difficulty getting close to people. Kept her distance, and when she let loose there was no restraint. She chose a stranger for a lover.”

“And of the Witch? In the life of a Witch, there is no "after", in the "ever after" of a Witch there is no "happily"; in the story of a Witch, there is no afterword. Of that part that is beyond the life story, beyond the story of the life, there is-alas, or perhaps thank mercy-no telling. She was dead, dead, and gone, and all that was left of her was the carapace of her reputation for malice.”

“I just want to show her that her life is worth living, that she can't let her past dictate her future.”

“Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were.”
