1 " There is something of the ghoul in the page-swallower and of the novel-reader in the stroller through cemeteries. "

I’d heard Bones threaten to beat someone with their own limb before, but I’d always assumed that was a figure of speech. Apparently not. "
― Jeaniene Frost , This Side of the Grave (Night Huntress, #5)

― Don DeLillo , The Names
