“She’d known that the law served the needs of the powerful. Truth and fairness were only raised for crimes by regular folk. When the wealthy butchered their way through life”

“Regret can be a dangerous thing for a mortal. It blinds them to the present while they seek out what they wish had been possible. Too much escapes you while you atone for a past you believe should have been different and force a future you want to exist.”

“You know the phrase I keep thinking about?" a poet asked, on a different panel, at a festival in Copenhagen. "The chickens are coming home to roost.' Because it's never good chickens.
