Tess Gerritsen Zitate

“Only the forgotten are truly dead.”

“The heart makes its choices without weighing the consequences. It doesn't look ahead to the lonely nights that follow.”

“The dead do not hurt you; only the living do.”

“Evil doesn't die. It never dies. It just takes on a new face, a new name. Just because we've been touched by it once, it doesn't mean we're immune to ever being hurt again. Lightning can strike twice.”

“Where we go depends on what we know, and what we know depends on where we go.”

“Everything's a gamble, love most of all.”

“You don't have to die to go to hell.”

“We are all descended from monsters.”

“The most intimate feeling people can share is neither love nor hate, but pain.”

“Even divorce, she thought, cannot erase all the bonds forged by years of marriage. Long after the papers are signed, decrees notarized, the ties still remain. And the most powerful tie of all is written in a child's flesh and blood.”

“That's what falling in love really amounted to, your brain on drugs. Adrenaline and dopamine, oxytocin and serotonin. Chemical insanity, celebrated by poets.”

“We dream our dreams, and sometimes they take us to places we never anticipate. But they are our dreams, and we go where they lead.”

“The one man you most want to sleep with may be the worst choice of all.”
