Here are some lines from the book I am reading "The Secret Life of Bees"
"I would meet her saying, "Mother, forgive me. Please forgive me," and she would kiss my skin til it grew chapped and tell me I was not to blame."
"You can tell which girls lack mothers by the look of their hair."
"....catching a jar of these bees, presenting them to T. Ray, and saying, "Now who's making things up?"
"I might as well as worn a sign on my back: I AM NOT POPULAR AND NEVER WILL BE."
"My mothers name is Deborah. T.Ray refused to speak it."
"...there are things you need to know about your mother."
"How could she have left me?"
"Children did not have two parents who refused to love them. One, maybe, but for pity's sake not two."
"Don't bother looking for me. P.S. People who tell lies like you should rot in hell."
"That was an absolue way of things. Loss takes up inside of everything sooner or later and eats through it."
"I loved myself and I hated myself."
"The world will give you that once in a while, a brief timeout; the boxing bell rings and you go to your corner, where somebody dabes mercy on your beat up life."
"I wanted to march up there, flip a couple tables over, and say, Excuse me, but you don't even know me."
"Nothing was safe."
"I have noticed that if you look carefully at people's eyes the first five seconds they look at you, the truth of their feelings will shine through for just an instant before it flickers away."
"I thought how nice it would be to grow smaller and smaller-until I was a dot of nothing."
"I would meet her saying, "Mother, forgive me. Please forgive me," and she would kiss my skin til it grew chapped and tell me I was not to blame."
