21 " I don’t woo. We’re not in the nineteenth century. I fuck. And I’m awesome at it. Hence why women keep coming back for more. "
― Samantha Towle , Trouble
22 " I’ve never had feelings for a girl before, but the first time I do, I’m falling in love, and hard. I guess this is what happens to us men who don’t love easily. We love quicker and harder. "
23 " Honestly, the look he’s giving me right now … I think if he could flip me off, he would. Yep, you lost that round, Dozer. I turn the ignition , feeling pretty satisfied with myself that I’ve got Mia sitting up front with me… Then it hits me. I was just in a pissing contest with my dog. There are no words. No. Fucking. Words.Towle, Samantha (2013-11-18). Trouble (p. 125). . Kindle Edition. "
24 " You were a boy scout?''Lasted a day.But it's the truth about food. I just broke my breakfast virginity with you. "
25 " Handsome boy that you are…aren’t you…yes, you are.” She smooshes his face in her hands, and I actually find myself jealous of my dog.I’m jealous of my dog.I really need to get laid. "
26 " I’ll always be waiting for you. "
27 " Mia might be the hottest girl I have ever seen … okay, she is the hottest girl I have ever seen in life, and the sweetest. And I’m so horny for her that my dick actually hurts. It motherfucking hurts. But the girl’s got enough to deal with. And me spending an invariable amount of time around a hot girl that I cannot put my dick inside … it’s just not possible. I might as well be in prison. Or hell. That’s it, I’m in hell.Towle, Samantha (2013-11-18). Trouble (p. 99). . Kindle Edition. "
28 " I don't date.Ever. "
29 " … I’m not fixable. "
30 " I’m not playing for sympathy here. My life is what it is. I live it. There are people out there who are far worse off than I am. Children living with famine and loss, and dying every single day without reason and cause. So yes, I can cope with the occasional beating.I do believe that everyone has a pain and coping ability that is individual to them, and if you want to feel sorry for yourself because of the hand life dealt you, then that’s your god given right—I won’t judge you for that.I spent a long time crying my heart out because of the life I had. Then the tears dried up, and I got up and carried on. "
31 " Be a shame to waste those tears of yours.” Forbes slaps me across the face again. “Keep crying, Mia. And I’ll keep giving you a reason to cry.”I’m not crying anymore, but that doesn’t stop him. Nothing ever stops him. "
32 " Men like him choose a woman like an employer chooses candidates for jobs—cold and methodical. Love has nothing to do with it. "
33 " If you can’t live longer, live deeper. "
34 " You’d think he’d stop and try some lame attempt of It’s not what you think, Mia.But he doesn’t say a thing.Then again, you’d think I’d say something; any normal girl would if she caught her boyfriend cheating on her. She’d probably be the one screaming right now.But then Forbes and I don’t exactly do normal.He has all the power, and I’m just dragged along for the ride.Continuing to have sex with this girl, and keeping his eyes on me, his smile changes to a smirk. Then a fire ignites in his eyes. It’s new. I’ve never seen this look on him before, but then I’ve never seen him having sex with someone else before either.But there’s something in the way he’s looking at me right now that terrifies me. He looks empowered, like he’s finally got me exactly where he wants me.Chills creep down my spine like spiders. "
35 " Taking me in, he sweeps his hair back revealing eyes the color of maple syrup. I have the sudden urge to eat pancakes. "
36 " El dolor del pasado nunca se va, tú acabas encontrando una manera de lidiar con él. Y el futuro... toda la promesa que contiene... eso es lo que te mantiene en movimiento hacia adelante, y fuera de la oscuridad. "
