“I've never wanted a quiet life.”

“My books promised me that life wasn’t just made up of workday tasks and prosaic things. The world is bigger and more colorful and more important than that.”

“I wrote a letter to you when I was in the capital. So stupid, to put it all in writing. Every thing I’d done. The information I passed to Tensen. The way I worked against the empire. What I felt. My father read it. He gave it to the emperor.” She was weeping. “And I know, I know that it hurt him, that I broke something, that he felt it break. Maybe I wasn’t me anymore, to him. Do you understand? Not his daughter. Not anyone he knew. Just a lying stranger. But how could he? Why couldn’t he love me most? Or enough. Why couldn’t he love me enough to choose me over his rules?”

“Εγώ ζητάω την αγάπη. Εγώ ζητάω να σκορπίσω την ψυχή μου σε αντίθετους ανέμους, να φθαρώ στα αντίξοα ρεύματα. Εγώ γυρεύω να σπείρω τις αγωνίες μου για να θερίσω πικρίες. Εγώ θέλω τη στυφή χαρά που μόνο η συντριβή χαρίζει. Εγώ θέλω...Δεν ξέρω τι θέλω.”

“The dead man's face was pale and bloodless. The fierce white lights in the morgue showed up every detail mercilessly and every last pore and pock-mark was revealed, the history of a life, now reduced to a mere handful of scars.
'Always nice to see you Mark, but what brings you in so late on Friday afternoon?' Lambert said nothing, staring at Petrie's corpse, before turning to the coroner. John Humby was older and getting close to retirement and the two had been friends for a very long time. Humby resembled a large blood-hound, the more so the older he got and he was smiling over at Lambert, who was still thinking about the murder.”
