City of Serpents Quotes

“Doing everything yourself isn’t strength. It’s a kind of weakness, really. When you trust other people enough to ask them to help you—to admit your own weakness—there’s strength in that. A three-strand cord is not easily broken. But one strand on its own is sure to break.”
― Christina Baehr, City of Serpents

“What made you choose to write about detectives, Edith?"

"I'm not entirely sure I did choose it. Not exactly," I admitted. "I just knew that I wanted Inspector Green to exist, and if I didn't write him down, he wouldn't. And since that was unbearable, I had to do it.”
