“But how is it done? How is control of your life possible when you have no money and no prospect of getting more than a little to survive on? To exist on was closer to the truth because that was what you were doing. Existing, not living. A familiar suspicion revived itself that she hadn't even started in life and was somehow outside it still, looking in, drifting or being blown about its fringes while being trapped in places where anything could happen to her.”
― Adam Nevill, No One Gets Out Alive
