“Vampire? Such a provocative word, wrapped in too many clichés and girly novels.”
― Matt Haig, The Radleys
― Matt Haig, The Radleys
“Everyone represses everything. Do you think any of these "normal" human beings really do exactly what they want to do all the time? 'Course not. It's just the same. We're middle-class and we're British. Repression is in our veins.”
― Matt Haig, The Radleys
― Matt Haig, The Radleys
“You reach a certain age -- sometimes it's fifteen, sometimes it's forty-six -- and you realize the cliche you have adopted for yourself isn't working.”
