The Hostage Quotes

“If I'm all alone, then the standard for sanity is up to me entirely.”
― Susan Wiggs, The Hostage

“Even the most egregious captive state, bound and gagged on her damp bunk, felt eerily familiar to her. With nothing to do but lie there and think of things, she reflected that captivity took many different forms. A woman under the domination of her father or husband was as much a prisoner as a hostage on a boat. She had merely traded one form of servitude for another.”
― Susan Wiggs, The Hostage
