"At home I used to spend calm, pleasant nights with my family. My mother knit scarves for the neighborhood kids. My father helped Caleb with his homework. There was a fire in the fireplace and peace in my heart, as I was doing exactly what I was supposed to be doing, and everything was quiet. I have never been carried around by a large boy, or laughed until my stomach hurt at the dinner table, or listened to the clamor of a hundred people all talking at once. Peace is restrained; this is free."

Honesty
"Stupid. Why do people want to pretendthat death is sleep? It isn't. It isn't."
Death
"So you're her brother? says Lynn. "I guess we know who got the good genes.I laugh at the expression on Caleb's face, his mouth drawn into a slight pucker and his eyes wide."
