churches on top of them, who commits mass murder and calls it divine punishment,
who lays down laws and then sends a savior to contradict them, and they follow like

righteous. It gives them meaning, but God couldn't care less about their devotion.
He would kill them in an instant, and feel powerful and satisfied.”🦌🔪

"People pour their lives in serving a god whom they cannot see, who rarely rewards

“An action taken in self-defense, a wolf at hunt, these aren’t acts of horror - no

stories. Weak. The anomalies to this caste system are tossed aside because they
don’t fit. Outliers won’t be accepted or tolerated.”🦝🌌

“The idea of sacrificing oneself in the service of faith has always struck me to be
as amusing as it is senseless. To be a Martyr, to offer up mind and body in such a
way; to offer up autonomy itself; the notion both entertains and appals me. And yet
how I find myself wanting to keep faith with you. I would forfeit my entire
wellbeing for it; I would allow you to vanquish and overpower me in my devotion.

whooping. 'Don't you ever play with matches again,' her mama said. When Mama wasn't
looking, Little Audrey started playing with matches again, the curtains caught
fire, the walls caught fire, and in no time at all, their entire house had burned
down, nothing but ashes. Sitting outside, wrapped in blankets on their neighbor's
porch on the other side of the street, her mama said, 'If you think I gave you a
whooping earlier, you just wait until your father gets home and sees what you've
done.' But Little Audrey just laughed and laughed since she knew her father had
gotten home an hour earlier and gone right upstairs to take a nap."🗽⛓

anything else. I cannot go anywhere else. This is it.”🗽⛓

“War just means you can kill a man and you don’t have to bury the body. Because no

legends are broad strokes on the map. “🗽⛓

“How could I be anything but ruined, now, having known true beauty? I will never
find its like again, save when I gaze upon my beloved and am seen in return.”🦌🔪

“Stop asking the sales assistants which fabric is the easiest to wash blood out of.
They’re going to call security.”🗽⛓

“Even the angels of the Old Testament were killers. It's not necessarily a bad
thing. And you wouldn't be human if you didn't like the rush that came from the act
of destruction. From the power you wield over another person's life.”🦌🔪

“I love him who loves his virtue, for virtue is the will to go under and an arrow
of longing. I love him who does not hold back one drop of spirit for himself, but
wants to be entirely the spirit of his virtue: thus he strides over the bridge as
spirit. I love him who makes his virtue his addiction and his catastrophe: for his
virtue’s sake he wants to live on and to live no longer.”🦌🔪

cowardice?”🦌🔪

“The enjoyment of killing is a human trait. Perhaps the most human. Animals do not
kill for pleasure. To fault yourself for this is to suggest you should be set apart

something in us that delights in destruction."🦌🔪

“You literally just brought me to a fucking corpse in the woods. Not your first

years ago. And He’s the spark inside you that makes you capable of tenderness, even

He had already been in the ice for five months when the Little Boy was dropped. In
a way he’s glad of that - if he’d still been awake to see that catastrophe, he
would’ve put a gun in his mouth and finished it himself. Because wiping out entire

“I have to say your handwriting is a lovely challenge, my darling. I became quite

skilled at pinpointing the exact moment you ran out of coffee.”🦌🔪

My love is selfish. I cannot breathe without you. I also cannot breathe without
air, so please refrain from setting more fires.🦌🔪

That is by far the worst idea you've ever had, and I was there when you tried to

“But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.
And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart”🦌🔪

After all, he already had a human whom he saw every day and liked that particular

“Come back and be somewhere I can always find you; and that you’ll always know
where to find me. Come back wild and untameable yet provocative and playful; come
back grave and enigmatic – come back entirely yourself. Bring all your thoughts and
memories with you, all your darkness and your brilliance, all your lethal glacial
beauty, every impulse and imperative, every outlawed thought and every forbidden
feeling: every day and every hour for the rest of your life. Come back on foot or
carried, come back running or walking; be majestic or despondent, audacious or
ferocious; but however you do it come back and light the flare – ignite – immolate
all that dark terrain inside yourself and then raze the old to raise the new. Come
back and lean against my desk with your hands in your pockets, then run your
fingers through your hair and smile and sigh and let me possess you. Come back
while you’re young and beautiful and gradually grow old in front of me; let me
watch you do it, let me watch you for a lifetime. Let me console, complete and
transform you, let me see what you can become. Come back, come back”🦌🔪-This

cold to say so, but it's true. I will say that it's important to have people who
