“According to these theories, in order for our species to thrive, the weak must die out. It is not only okay for the weak to die, but essential. It is best for our species if the oppressed, the addicted, and the afflicted die, because it will rid our gene pool of the weak. Those at the top of the food chain can do whatever they want, even if it means harming and exploiting others, because as long as they reproduce their dominant genes, they will give future generations of humanity a better shot. This is what an existence looks like that is reduced to evolutionary biology and is void of morality.”

“She'd thought her love was so good, so shining, so pure that Simon would immediately abandon the years of resentment and pain that had fueled his very existence. How self-important she'd been. How stupid she felt now. Some things were beyond her reach. In her sheltered life, she'd never realized that until now. She hadn't expected the world to be handed to her upon a golden platter, but she'd always assumed that if she worked hard enough for something, treated everyone the way she would like to be treated, then she would be rewarded. But not this time. Simon was beyond her reach.”
