There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves; it is not my nature. My attachments are always excessively strong.
Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Having a sibling is either “we ride together we die together” or “no officer I’ve never seen that person before in my life” there is no in between.

A thing that exists only in the feel of my body.
Is this love, this wakeful trembling, this flood of gratitude,
this canine rage?
I’ve shown myself
what I’m capable of.

Wanna make a monster? Take the parts of yourself that make you uncomfortable — your weaknesses, bad thoughts, vanities, and hungers — and pretend they’re across the room. It’s too ugly to be human. It’s too ugly to be you. Children are afraid of the dark because they have nothing real to work with. Adults are afraid of themselves.
RICHARD SIKEN || “Black Telephone” from Spork Press Issue 1.3 (2002)
