1 " Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. "
― C.M. Stunich , Tough Luck (Hard Rock Roots, #3)
2 " (...) listen to the call of the ice crystallizing in my veins. "
3 " (...) not even with the drugs kissing my soul with sweet, sinful lips. "
4 " I love him fuckin' fierce, but he's an idiot extraordinaire. "
5 " Her body is like the worst drug there is, the kind I just know is going to fuck me up. If you hit this, Ronnie, you are so screwed. "
6 " I groan against her neck and nuzzle into her hair, wishing I could fucking inhale her scent like crack. Not a very romantic reference, but it's all I got. "
7 " Lose my life, lose my freedom, lose my soul. A spin of the chamber and pull the trigger, see what it'll be. "
8 " Little girls aren't all born with glitter shooting out of their assholes. Some us have personality, thank you very much. "
9 " Ugh,” Turner groans from the kitchen. “That skinny tramp can go fuck herself. She doesn't stand a chance. Even if I wasn't fucking committed to marrying your ass making tiny Turner babies, she's a little below my usual standards.” Naomi's eyes narrow, and I can't hold back my smile. God, I love the shit out of these stupid assholes. I hope they buy a house down the street from me, so I can watch Naomi throwing Turner's stuff out on the lawn every other Christmas. I don't admit to myself that in that fantasy, Lola Saints is in the kitchen with nothing but an apron on. "
10 " The lily represents the restored innocence of the soul upon death. "
11 " A Good Girl for Every Bad Boy "
12 " (...) it's not easy to run in heels. Fashion over function (...) "
13 " I've got to stop him before he takes it too far, before there's no coming back. Once you cross that line … something happens inside. I can't describe it, but it feels like I'm rotting, pieces of me blackening and dying every damn day. "
14 " Love. We're a hell of a long ways off from that, but I can see the flicker of something in the distance. The question is: do I chase after it? And if I do, would I even live long enough to get there? "
15 " Been There, Fuck That'. "
16 " I swear to the ancient gods of another time that I can hear a chorus of howling devils in my skull when he touches me. He's a bad boy in all the worst ways, a real bad boy. "
17 " Two wrong deeds don't make a right, but two fucking awesome ones sure do help. "
18 " He sees me staring and raises his hands in the air like what the shit, dude? “I will use a wheelchair if and when the following conditions are met. One, I ain't got no fucking legs. Two, I'm paralyzed from the waist down. Three, I'm ninety-six years old. None of those apply to the current situation. You try to put me in that thing, and I will put you down. "
19 " Keep your pants on, asshole, and cut the possessive caveman crap. "
20 " Everyone makes mistakes, Ronnie. Some of us just realize it sooner than others. The important thing is that when we do, we try to make amends for the hurt we've caused. That's all any human being can really ask of another. Asuka. "
