21 " I was just chased through St. Willibald’s, and you know why? Because I was kind to a quig. I scrupulously hide every legitimate reason for people to hate me, and then it turns out they don’t need legitimate reasons. Heaven has fashioned a knife of irony to stab me with. "
― Rachel Hartman , Seraphina (Seraphina, #1)
22 " It is a great mistake to suppose that a woman with no heart will be an easy creditor in the exchange of affection. There is not on earth a more merciless extractor of love from others than a thoroughly selfish woman; and the more unlovely she grows, the more jealously and scrupulously she extracts love, to the uttermost farthing. "
― Harriet Beecher Stowe
23 " There are those who are so scrupulously afraid of doing wrong that they seldom venture to do anything. "
― Luc de Clapiers de Vauvenargues
