What are some quotes form the novel Unwind?

Answer 1

"Sure, I can talk like you but I choose not to. It's like art, you know? See, if you paint wrong because that's the best you can do, you just a chump. But you do it because you want to? Then you're an artist."(p. 125)

"Common sense tells Risa to distance herself from him. Their alliance has been one of necessity, but there's no reason to ally herself with him anymore. Yet, day after day, she keeps finding herself drawn to him... and worried about him."(p. 144)

"Which was worse, Risa often wondered - to have tens of thousands of babies that no one wanted, or to silently make them go away before they were even born?" (p.115)

"In a perfect world, everything would be either black or white, right or wrong, and everyone would know the difference. But this isn't a perfect world. The problem is people who think it is." (p.75)

Answer 2

1. "A kid gets hurt while playing a sport, and everyone says, 'That's a shame, but that's all part of the game.' But let that same kid get hurt playing a video game, and suddenly all those same people want to ban those games because 'kids are getting hurt'."

2. "How lopsided is this whole organ thing, because those same parents who are so protective of their child's life will then swear up and down that a child doesn't have a soul until it's born."

3. "Stupid dreams. Even the good ones are bad because they remind you how poorly reality measures up."

4. "It was irony upon irony upon irony that unraveled to nothing once he started pulling at the one thread he wished he'd never noticed."
