2 " Except what remains of the woman that she had been? If you have to change to be loved, then how much is that love worth? "

4 " You want to be fucked. That’s why you came here. Say it. "
5 " The heart is the cruelest enemy of all. "
6 " I spent so long thinking about defeating the Minotaur that I didn’t consider he might just let me go. I didn’t consider that I would have liked to stay. "

16 " Make me bleed. Make me cry. I’d despise him in pure righteous fury. It’s the kindness I can’t trust. "
17 " Such a beautiful pussy. Is it beautiful because no one has fucked it yet? Or is it fuckable because it’s so beautiful? "
18 " How will I go on after this, knowing that I sold my soul to the devil? "
19 " I shouldn’t care about him, shouldn’t love what he does to me. That’s how he’s broken me. So much worse than the ripping agony in my body. "
20 " But a beautiful body isn’t enough. You need to know how to use it. "
