“Everything in our society”
Jakob Kerr, Dead Money

“Men never have to make those choices,” Mackenzie said. “They cruise right through the system because they’re the ones that built it. We shouldn’t be fighting for a seat at their table. We should be flipping the goddamn thing over.”
Jakob Kerr, Dead Money

“There’s no such thing as closure.” Danner raised his eyebrows. “Closure?” “It’s a bullshit concept,” Mackenzie said. “Invented by psychologists to indulge people who can’t move on. Everybody’s got shit in their past.” “Isn’t that the point, though? To confront the past, so you can move on from it?” “You can’t confront the past. It already happened. ‘Seeking closure’ is just an excuse to wallow in it.” Mackenzie settled back into her seat. “You want to move on from the past, you just do it. Move on. My mom always said, ‘You get one life. So get the hell on with it.”
Jakob Kerr, Dead Money
