More quotes by Jeff Lindsay
I sighed as comforting as it may be to some of us, sarcasm, like youth, is wasted on the young.
Jeff Lindsay
For the first time I could remember, I felt weak, woozy and stupid— like a human-being. Like a very small and helpless human-being.
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
I'm a very neat monster.
Jeff Lindsay
In its own way the kiss had been an act of murder.
Jeff Lindsay
After a long moment I closed the freezer door. I wanted to lie down and press my cheek against the cool linoleum. Instead I reached out with my little finger and flipped the Barbie's head. It went thack thack against the door. I flipped it again. Thack thack. Whee. I had a new hobby.
Jeff Lindsay
Feeling - what authentic human fun!
Jeff Lindsay

Jeff Lindsay

Jeff Lindsay

Jeff Lindsay
It was such an unexpected and genuine smile that if I only had a soul I'm sure I would have felt quite guilty.
Jeff Lindsay
Me, feeling. What a concept.
Jeff Lindsay
And so as much as I can, I care about her, dear Deborah. It's probably not love, but I would rather she were happy.
Jeff Lindsay
It really is better to be lucky than to be good.
Jeff Lindsay
What a terrible thing life can be.
Jeff Lindsay
you can’t use logic on human behavior.
Jeff Lindsay
They like to tell us that it is important to speak the truth, but it has been my experience that real happiness lies in having people tell you what you want to believe, usually not the same thing at all, and if you have to stub your toe on the truth later, so be it.
Jeff Lindsay
...my conscience has the same hard reality as a unicorn.
Jeff Lindsay
And then more quiet, silence so deep it almost drowned out the roar of the night music that pounded away in my secret self.
Jeff Lindsay
