103 " I never thought I’d get to do that. "
104 " What is the truth?” Carmel asks. “What happened in that house? Am I really supposed to believe that Mike was murdered by a ghost? "

107 " No somos niños, ninguno de los dos. No creemos en cuentos de hadas. Y si lo hacemos ¿Quiénes seriamos? No el príncipe encantado y la bella durmiente. Yo hago que las victimas de asesinato se marchen y Anna estira pieles hasta que se rasguen, rompe huesos en piezas cada vez más pequeñas como si fueran ramas verdes.

109 " It was an ugly fucking house. Even angry as I was, I didn’t want to go in. If it is possible for an inanimate object to glare, to growl, then that’s exactly what this house did.

117 " I like it more to come to a place like this, where the scent of deathis carried to you on every seventh breath. "
118 " They rationalized their fears away. People shouldn't do that. "
119 " But I don't think she ever figured on raising a son by herself. Her family was supposed to form a circle. Now we walk around like a photograph that my dad's been cut out of. "
120 " Cada vez que digo algo ellas se ríen, se miran entre sí para permitirse reír, y me vuelven a mirar otra vez, esperando mi siguiente gracia. Dios, las personas vivas son irritantes. "
