Black Widow Quotes

“I retreat into my memories. I remember everything. After all of this, I am still me. Who I am cannot be destroyed. I have survived far worse than this. His words are irrelevant. I have been here many times before. The pain reminds me that I'm alive. I am not afraid, but as I think of what's been done to me, taken from me, a rage begins to burn in the pit of my stomach. I am through being a plaything, a pawn. I was made in a place like this. I will not die here. I remember. I thrive. I am the Black Widow. And even death cannot take that away from me.”

“From the way a person holds themselves, how they walk, and talk, little gestures reveal sensitivities to abuses suffered long ago. You can hear a person's whole life story without them ever even saying a word.”

“When you live next to the cemetery you cannot weep for everyone. You reap what you sow. Death is the debt we all pay for life. Faced with our own deaths, some live harder, hoping to escape and delay the inevitable, fearful of what's on the other side. When death comes, all we can hope for is that it comes with the peace and dignity befitting how we lived our lives.”
