- Heidi: Those guys are jerks. They're assholes. They're losers. They're also wimps. I swear I beat them all up when I was ten.
- Heidi: You've reached Heidi and Laura. If you don't know what do after the beep, you're not smart enough to talk to us.
- Laura: But I barely cut deep enough to draw blood... because it hurt. And I mean, it really hurt. And that sounds so stupid and obvious, but as I focused on the pain, I felt a calm rising, as though my anguish were being drained from me
- Laura: There was never a chain around my neck. All that weight I was pulling around, it was in my hands. And all I had to do was let it go.
