Grady Hendrix Quote: “Every story begins in blood: a squalling baby yanked from the womb, bathed in mucus and half a quart of their mother’s blood. But not many stories end in blood these days.

Grady Hendrix Quote: “Julia’s physiotherapist got promoted to husband and convinced her to hit the talk show circuit. I know what it’s like.

We die because we’re female.”

I throw my pebble and its name is Gretchen Lang and in the name of our love, BEGONE!!!”
Grady Hendrix Quote: “Our monsters are the night visitors, the child stealers, the boo-baggers, the baby guzzlers. They are the men who eat children.

And they’ve become experts on the subject.”

Grady Hendrix Quote: “It’s degrading to watch the woman who hauled us back from the brink reduced to the status of waitress for her children.

We have the same normal nostalgic inclinations as other people, but when we walk back in our minds to this supposedly wonderful time we have people trying to kill us. For us, nostalgia and violence are inextricably linked.”
