Unto the Daughters Quotes

“The worthy ones, the secrets of consequence, swallow up the tongues of the living until they sleep together in the grave. Unseen forces, nevertheless they twist and mold unsuspecting lives, bruise and batter bewildered souls. Omerta -- what happens in the "family" stays in the family. Powerful, percolating, persistent, these insidious secrets are the ones I fear.”
― Karen Tintori, Unto the Daughters: The Legacy of an Honor Killing in a Sicilian-American Family
