"Stand bloody tall - you're the All."

Jane made herself into someone who could bear to be cut off from her lover, husband, father, child, brother, friend."

"All these girls swooning over hunky vampires, what they really want is to give away their freedom, to be controlled and told what to do and not have to think -- and never die, of course. It's sick is what it is. I don't want to be a forever-young living corpse."
"Narcissists are everywhere in this ripe age of self-love, which amazes me because so much in life would seem to foster humility."
