The Deep Blue Sea

“What people do in private is best left there.”

“It’s never too late to begin again.”

“Anger fades and is replaced by regret.”

“A lot of rubbish is talked about love.  You know what real love is?  It’s wiping someone’s ass or changing the sheets when they’ve wet themselves.  And letting them keep their dignity so you can both go on.”

“How I hate being tangled up in another person’s emotions.”

“That sounds too spontaneous to be sincere.”

“I give my respect to those who’ve earned it.  To everyone else, I’m civil.”

“Love, it would seem, drives all sorts of things.”

“Beware of passion, Hester.  It always leads to something ugly.”
