Kindle Notes & Highlights
For all the girls who never feared Hell because they know the Devil is a woman and Hell hath no fucking fury.
“The hardest thing in this world is to live in it.”
“We are the dead, and we do not enter lightly into the realm of the living.”
“All monsters are human.”
"Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win." —STEPHEN KING, CASTLE ROCK
“You can get much further with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.”
“What part of you’re mine did you not understand? Next time I tell you to do something, you will fucking listen to me, or I will bend you the fuck over my knee.”
“The darkest places in Hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.” —DANTE ALIGHIERI, INFERNO
“I’m not the one who’s gonna die, honey. I’m the one who’s gonna live.”
“What part of you’re mine, do you not understand?” he whispered, his lips were so close they were nearly touching mine. “If I want to buckle your seatbelt, I fucking will. If I want to spoon-feed you all your fucking meals, I will. You belong to me. I own you.” He growled, and I shivered under the intensity of his words.
“You know who I am, Lilith, you’ve always known. I’m the fucking Reaper. Death. Satan. The Devil. I’m your personal fucking nightmare, and I will never let you go.”
“Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven.”
“Well, I’m the Devil, so I guess God’s little plan for me worked.” —LUCIFER MORNINGSTAR, LUCIFER
“Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.”
“You know as well as I do that I’m not capable of being kind… but for reasons that I cannot fathom or understand, you make me want to fucking try.”
“It is not a sin, Ramel. Experiencing pleasure is not sinful, nor is giving pleasure to others. Sex is natural and a necessary action to bring about new life.”
“I never felt right in that form. I always knew I was on the female end of the spectrum, but Yahweh would never condone a shift like that. He always said He made His creations perfect, and He knew best. You on the other hand…” She reached out and laid her hand over mine affectionately. “You always wanted us to be happy. You never pretended to know what we wanted better than we did. You always did your best to make Hell a place free of judgment, where demons could be demons, and we could explore every dark, depraved corner of ourselves without fear of punishment. You freed us, Lilith.”
“God is a kid with an ant farm, lady. He’s not planning anything.”
“I’m not afraid of death.” She smiled softly. “Death is my friend.”
I was no longer Ramel. I was only Death, and even God’s angels wouldn’t survive me.
Whoever said violence wasn’t the answer had been wrong as fuck.
