The Merciful Scar Quotes

“against the kitchen counter. “Oh, Sister,” I said, “you have no idea.”
― Rebecca St. James, The Merciful Scar

“I didn't blame Wes. I actually didn't blame anybody except myself. Really, what did I have in my life that was so bad it raced under my skin until I couldn't stand it anymore and I had to give it a place to come out? I didn't know. At moments like this, when my flesh cried out for relief, I didn't have to know. I just needed to make it stop. I lifted the pleated bed skirt and pulled out the wooden box. Inside, the instruments were lines up on a folded snowy white pillowcase, still sterile and gleaming from Eater night.”
― Nancy Rue, The Merciful Scar
