Quotes from Ricochet

“I’d rather walk a mile with a cucumber up my ass than fuck you.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“The stars in the sky are the souls of the people we love. They shine so bright, not even the night can hide them. And when we’re lost, they guide us.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“Monsters did exist. They didn’t hide under the bed, though. They stormed through the fucking door and stole away everything we loved.
To defeat a monster, I had to become one.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“You’re a fighter. Your scars aren’t about the rounds you’ve lost. They’re about the ones you walked away from. The ones you survived.”

― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“The stars in the sky
Unhidden by night
Souls of our loved ones
Guide us by sight
But when dawn breaks
Bringing day’s light
Remain in our hearts
And all wrongs become right;
I'll see you in the night.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“Outside the window, broken and abandoned husks dotted the landscape, set against the gray, dishwater sky. Scarred and beaten, the perfect metaphor for the people who lived within its forgotten neighborhoods, Detroit was like an abused kid, just waiting for the day someone would come along and give a fuck about it. The third world city of America.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“You asked for dark. I’m going to give it to you … You are the violence inside of me, Aubree. My most exquisite destruction.”

“Shit seemed to get crazy the moment I whipped out my dick, like unleashing the goddamn Kraken every time I unzipped my pants.”

“There was a time I’d feared the dark, but I’d since found comfort in it. Felt protected by it.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“There was nothing normal or typical about our love. We should’ve been one hot mess of madness for all that we’d suffered, but just as a flower grows from the sky’s tears, our love grew from pain. It blossomed in darkness and thrived with time.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“There’s little joy in life for me, And little terror in the grave; I’ve lived the parting hour to see Of one I would have died to save.”

― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“Cage a bird that once felt the wind through its feathers and the world beneath its feet, and you’d find that insane glint of hope in its eyes that enticed it to escape every time the door swung open. Even if it could no longer fly, it’d never stop vying for its freedom, and neither would I.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“That was the thing about pain, it came with a universal understanding for those who survived it—don’t ask, don’t tell.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“Whatever happens at the end of this … I gave you all of me. My fears. My desires. It’s all yours. And now I want all of you.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“Could you even imagine a place where we watch sunrises, have sex, eat, shower, have sex, lay in the sun, watch sunsets, sex.” “I’m picking up on a theme …”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“But fuck, that body of hers called out to me like a siren. I felt like a rotten bastard for what I wanted to do to it. How badly I needed to watch her writhe with the pleasure of being defiled by my cock, while her screams reverberated inside the small shower stall.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“You never tried to make yourself known to her because … you were giving her to me.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“I want to.” To be set free? Fucked? I’ve no idea what she’s begging me for.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“She lowers herself to the bed and releases a pained sigh that is both relief and agony. I know this because I feel it, too, as I rock in and out of her tight pussy with the realization that I don’t want the torment to end. I want to stay inside of her, with her warm, silky body around my dick and her soft whisper droning inside my head, telling me how good it feels.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

“To defeat a monster, I had to become one.”
― Keri Lake, quote from Ricochet

About the author

Popular quotes

“We look before and after,
And pine for what is not;
Our sincerest laughter
With some pain is fraught;
Our sweetest songs are those that tell
Of saddest thought.”
― Percy Bysshe Shelley, quote from The Complete Poems

“We will mate tonight, wife.” His eyes flared hot and golden.
“No.” She lifted her chin and ignored the skittering in her lower stomach.
“Cara,” he leaned forward in his chair, “before this night has ended you will have no doubt you’ve been mated.”
― Rebecca Zanetti, quote from Fated

“Household was making loans at a faster pace than ever. A big source of its growth had been the second mortgage. The document offered a fifteen-year, fixed-rate loan, but it was bizarrely disguised as a thirty-year loan. It took the stream of payments the homeowner would make to Household over fifteen years, spread it hypothetically over thirty years, and asked: If you were making the same dollar payments over thirty years that you are in fact making over fifteen, what would your “effective rate” of interest be? It was a weird, dishonest sales pitch. The borrower was told he had an “effective interest rate of 7 percent” when he was in fact paying something like 12.5 percent. “It was blatant fraud,” said Eisman. “They were tricking their customers.”
― Michael Lewis, quote from The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine

“The place God calls us to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.”
― Katie J. Davis, quote from Kisses from Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption

“You’re shivering with cold. I’ll make you a cup of hot soup to warm your bones. That’ll have to do for now – I’ll cook you a nice big meal later.’ I was trembling more than shivering, upset by what had happened in Morgan’s room, but gradually I began to calm down. I did as I was told and warmed my hands at the fire, watching my boots begin to steam. ‘It’s good to see you’ve still got all your fingers!’ Meg said. I smiled. ‘Where’s Mr Gregory?’ I asked, wondering if he’d been called away on spook’s business. I hoped he had because that would mean he was fit and well again. ‘He’s still in bed. He needs all the rest he can get.’ ‘So he’s not that much better yet?’ ‘He’s improving slowly,’ Meg answered. ‘But it’ll take time. These things can’t be rushed. Try not to disturb or burden him too much. He needs to rest and sleep as much as he can.’ She brought across a steaming cup of hot chicken”
― Joseph Delaney, quote from Night of the Soul Stealer
