Easy not to lose what you never had.

I think my mother’s death is the best thing to have happened to me since, well, my father’s death.

Life is just the history of things we pay attention to. The rest is just packaging.

An orphan at last! It’s what I always dreamed of. After all this time, I feel complete.

I’ve tried so hard not to pass on the malice and resentment, give them a different sort of childhood. But they’re just fresh mistakes.
