Quote by Richelle E. Goodrich

“I love words.  I crave descriptions that overwhelm my imagination with vivid detail.  I dwell on phrases that make my heart thrum.  I cherish expressions that pierce my emotions and force the tears to spill over.   In essence, I long for a writer's soul sealed in ink on the page.”

“I used to wonder what it was that drove people like him to become the monsters they became. If it was a consequence of all that time , maybe - the need to indulge ever-darker desires, just to stave off the crushing boredom of forever. But you live long enough, you look into the mundane murk of people's souls often enough, you see Danton didn't really become anything. He'd just had the shackles of consequence removed. Give someone the power to do anything they want, and they'll do exactly that. That's the horrifying part - the only thing holding some folk back from the worst atrocities they can imagine is the fear they might not get away with it.”

“She sat sobbing. She shook her head. Yet even though I could have told you how all of this would end I thought it not too much to ask that you have a final glimpse of hope in the world to lift your heart before the shroud drops, the darkness. Do you see? Oh God, she said. Oh God. I’m sorry. She looked at him a final time. You dont have to, she said. You dont. You dont. He shook his head. You’re asking that I make myself vulnerable and that I can never do. I have only one way to live. It doesnt allow for special cases. A coin toss perhaps. In this case to small purpose. Most people dont believe that there can be such a person. You can see what a problem that must be for them. How to prevail over that which you refuse to acknowledge the existence of. Do you understand? When I came into your life your life was over. It had a beginning, a middle, and an end. This is the end. You can say that things could have turned out differently. That they could have been some other way. But what does that mean? They are not some other way. They are this way. You’re asking that I second say the world. Do you see? Yes, she said, sobbing. I do. I truly do. Good, he said. That’s good. Then he shot her.”
