“It's funny how children can still go on even after their parents have died. You'd think it was only polite for someone who gave you entrance to the world to see you through it.”
Marlowe Granados, Happy Hour

Charles Martin
“Maybe only an orphan can understand this, but we had been cut free from our anchor and the blow was crushing. We didn't know who we were, and more importantly, we didn't know whose we were -- forever proving that identity precedes purpose. You can't know who you are until you've settled whose you are.

[Bones, to Murphy Shepherd, about himself and his brother Frank]”
Charles Martin, The Record Keeper
