More quotes by Jeff Lindsay
Rectory always sounded to me like a place where you would find a proctologist.
Jeff Lindsay
Anybody can be charming if they don't mind faking it, saying all the stupid, obvious, nauseating things that a conscience keeps most people from saying. Happily, I don't have a conscience. I say them.
Jeff Lindsay

Killing makes me feel good.
Jeff Lindsay
Could this be the Apocalypse ?
Jeff Lindsay

Jeff Lindsay
I'm a very neat monster.
Jeff Lindsay
A reasonable being might think that he and I could find some common ground have a cup of coffee and compare our Passengers, exchange trade talk and chitchat about dismemberment techniques. But no: Doakes wanted me dead. And I found it difficult to share his point of view.
Jeff Lindsay
I think people understand things different when they get older. It’s not a question of getting soft, or seeing things in the gray areas instead of black and white. I really believe I’m just understanding things different. Better.
Jeff Lindsay
...she opened the door very slowly and carefully, half hiding behind it, as if badly frightened of what might be waiting for her on the other side. And considering that it was me waiting, this showed rare common sense.
Jeff Lindsay
What a terrible thing life can be.
Jeff Lindsay
Of course it was a terrible thing, and the world would be a much better place without someone in it who could do that, but did that mean we had to miss lunch?
Jeff Lindsay
It really is better to be lucky than to be good.
