Devil in the Details Quotes

“So I’m just going to come home from work one day and find you in my apartment? Maybe wearing a ribbon?”
― L.J. Hayward, Devil in the Details

“We all have knives." Anger bubbling up again, Jack shouted over him. "All of us! That's
all any of us are. We’re just a bunch of knives waiting to cut anyone who gets too close. Our insecurities. Our weaknesses, prejudices, arrogance. Everything that makes us who we are is a knife you can use to hurt someone else. God fucking knows I've hurt everyone around me. Family, friends, lovers. You. And they've hurt me. Stabbed me in the fucking heart." His voice broke on the last word and he realised how loud he'd been. Realised he had tears building. Taking a deep breath, he wiped them away with the back of one hand. But that's what being close to someone means. You accept the risk of being hurt, of causing the pain. And you learn together how not to hurt each other. That is why I want you with me. Because I know you don't want to hurt me. Or Tom. Or anyone else.”
