“I have my fears. Yet, notwithstanding the complicated difficulties that rise before us, there is no receding; and I should blush if in any instance the weak passions of my sex should damp the fortitude, the patriotism, and the manly resolution of yours. May nothing ever check that glorious spirit of freedom which inspires the patriot in the cabinet, and the hero in the field, with courage to maintain their righteous cause, and to endeavor to transmit the claim to posterity, even if they must seal the rich conveyance to their children with their own blood.”

“I have my great grandmother's recipe for black beans, all the way from Cuba, and I know how to make those. I'm actually pretty good at it now. But my first time, the beans actually exploded in the pot, so I had black beans just dripping from the ceiling - which is actually a dream come true for most Cubans. It was a nightmare to clean.”

“I have my mind,’ she whispered. ‘That’s the worst part. It’s my mind that fills the darkness with horrid things. I have too much imagination.’ ‘Shut the door to it, then. No stories or wild tales. Concentrate only on the things you can sense. What’s in front of you?’ Her hands flattened on the linen of his shirt, light and chilled. ‘You are.’ ‘What’s to either side of you?’ ‘Your arms.’ ‘What’s behind you?’ She inhaled slowly. ‘Your hands. Your hands are on my back.’ He rubbed his hands up and down, warming her. ‘Then that’s all you need to know. I have you. If there are beasties in the dark, they have to get through me.”
