1 " Being loved is one thing, being hated is another, but there's nothing worse than being ignored. "
― Samantha Downing , For Your Own Good
2 " Guilt doesn't go away. It stays with a person. burrowing itself deep into the soul, where it starts to grow. Almost like love, except it feels horrible instead of good. "
3 " The feeling was so much worse than regret, which was just a nagging thought in the brain. Remorse was having your insides replaced by worms. "
4 " A few hours later, she was dead. Too bad there wasn’t an award for that. "
5 " ENTITLEMENT HAS A particular stench. Pungent, bitter. Almost brutal. "
6 " Hard to enjoy the turnout when you’re dead. "
7 " The amount of money here just in clothes, jewelry, and handbags must be in the millions. Not to mention the wristwatches. The only acceptable jewelry for a man is a wedding ring and a wristwatch. Teddy always checks out both. It’s too bad he doesn’t have binoculars. Bet there are some extraordinary watches here today. "
8 " Being white and clean-cut gets Zach into a lot of places. And out of them, if need be. "
9 " Another problem to fix. If the world wasn’t filled with so many incompetent people, Teddy would have so much more time to concentrate on the important things. Like teaching. "
10 " Ingrid looked so normal, just like all the other parents. She didn’t look like a succubus. "
11 " Being loved is one thing, being hated is another, but there’s nothing worse than being ignored. "
12 " Wherever you are, act like you’re supposed to be there. People will assume it’s true. "
13 " Knowledge isn’t just powerful; it’s valuable. Know when to use it and when to shut up. "
