❞   ❝ don’t run away, don’t say we’re through. ❞   ❝ what kinda ruckus you stirring? ❞   ❝ i’ve never been so scared in my whole life! you couldn’t care less about me…could you? ❞   ❝ i don’t like this game anymore. ❞   ❝ please, don’t do this… ❞   ❝ know your place. know your damn place. ❞   ❝ you call these tools? …really? ❞ ❝ it doesn’t matter who i am. i’m here for you. ❞   ❝ there’s what is easy and then there’s what is right. if you confuse the two, there’s no telling what you become. ❞   ❝ basic botany knowledge could save your life someday. ❞   ❝ only a fool would spit in a demon’s face and declare victory. ❞   ❝ i’ve never missed a race. i always reach the finish line. ❞   ❝ they will never catch me! ❞   ❝ you never leave a broken home. you only run away until the memories stop haunting you. ❞   ❝ in my restless dreams, i see that town. ❞   ❝ i dropped my precious ring, but i’ll never ever go back there. ❞   ❝ i’ve been watching you for a while. ❞   ❝ paying attention is what kept me alive through the years. that, and my good looks of course. ❞ ❝ all this time i’ve been trying so hard to pretend like everything’s fine, but it’s not. ❞   ❝ what can i say? i’m just a very lucky guy…i’m sure some of it will rub off on you. ❞   ❝ everything that glitters isn’t gold. but gold isn’t worth a damn in this place, so this should come in handy. ❞   ❝ your whisper on me, warm as can be. ❞   ❝ shit! i dropped the gauze! ❞   ❝ i’ve dealt with psychopaths in suits. you’re just uglier and worse dressed. ❞   ❝ when they come with a wrecking ball, build stronger walls. ❞   ❝ we can write our own story and decide how it really ends. ❞   ❝ that sound when you bleed…let me hear it again. ❞   ❝ attack an enemy with precision and their allies will feel it. ❞   ❝ within your enemy’s strength is weakness. ❞   ❝ ain’t no mess can stain a hard-working man’s soul. ❞   ❝ eat…eat. you’ll feel better when it’s down. ❞   ❝ this is my world. and you can’t ever leave. ❞   ❝ showing up when things get rough, listening to people’s problems, and supporting those in need; that’s how you become stronger, that’s how you grow. ❞   ❝ death is only the beginning. ❞   ❝ now why don’t you just fucking die? ❞   ❝ better go back to sleep, there is no moon this night. ❞   ❝ pray all you want, your words are getting lost somewhere up here, in this place. ❞   ❝ i’ll hit you with everything i’ve got. then i’ll do it again. ❞   ❝ so, remember once you get in there… pretend like you don’t care. there you go, you’re learning my friend. you’re learning. ❞   ❝ i couldn’t be mithered with it all anyway, you know what i mean? can’t be arsed. ❞   ❝ dance with me, until sun’s up. ❞   ❝ your hands just can’t keep ahold of me. ❞   ❝ one small dose can cause severe hallucinations. ❞   ❝ the night assists me and it’s endless here. ❞ ❝ there won’t be nothing to fear soon. till then, fear me. ❞   ❝ get your prayers in, you’ll be swinging by noon. ❞   ❝ deals made in desperation are paid for in madness. ❞   ❝ that’s not enough to beat me. not even close. ❞   ❝ i promised to keep you safe, and that’s exactly what i plan on doing. ❞   ❝ something i learnt in the industry: when the axe is swinging, keep your head down. ❞ ❝ i wanna finish what we started. i want to kill it. ❞   ❝ these monsters… they adapt! they emerge with strange new abilities. ❞ ❝ ok, stay calm. don’t overthink it and just keep moving forward: you got this. ❞   ❝ that song, it drives me crazy! ❞ ❝ i’ll stop this. i promise. ❞   ❝ get outta my face! ❞   ❝ sorry i got a little jumpy there. didn’t know quite what to expect. ❞   ❝ i can do this. ❞   ❝ an image is worth a thousand words. ❞   ❝ there’s no need to worry. i’ve been preparing my whole life for this. ❞ ❝ smartasses get killed. i always see to that. ❞ ❝ there are moments when we cannot believe that what is happening is really true. pinch yourself and you may find out that it is. ❞   ❝ this is not how i imagined my first day. ❞   ❝ look…just so you know, this is the last fucking time. ❞   ❝ it knows what it wants and won’t stop till it gets it. ❞   ❝ i don’t mind a little detective work. ❞   ❝ it’s like…a nightmare. ❞   ❝ it’s my turn, bitch. ❞   ❝ probably stings like hell, but it ain’t gonna kill ya. up and at ‘em soldier. ❞   ❝ you’re doing it wrong! let me show you how it’s done. ❞   ❝ you have to stay smart. stupidity gets you dead. ❞   ❝ we can’t just leave them there! ❞   ❝ words won’t work on this thing. ❞   ❝ in a wasteland of forgotten dreams and endless routine, the only man with a way out is god. ❞   ❝ listen, there are rules. ❞   ❝ to plan subterfuge, begin with a counsel of none. ❞   ❝ there’s no getting out of this now. we’re too good at it. ❞ ❝ this is no place for cowards. ❞ ❝ it is a trap. but a trap one must step in. ❞   ❝ there’s nothing to be scared of. ❞
