Or beneath it."-Ambrose Parry, The Way of All Flesh (Raven, Fisher, and Simpson, #1)
"James Matthew Duncan, he decided, was going to be insufferable. He had the bearing of a young man who had never been punched full in the face for an unguarded remark, and Raven instinctively felt he might be the one to remedy that."-Ambrose Parry, The Way of All Flesh (Raven, Fisher, and Simpson, #1)
"Sarah poured the tea, thinking how narrow Mina’s assessment of a woman’s role was, how restrictive. Why couldn’t a woman aspire to more? Why shouldn’t she? Why did Raven get to do whatever he wanted? She was convinced that they were of similar backgrounds and she was damn sure they were of similar intellect, yet he had opportunities that were denied to her, and seemed not always to appreciate his privilege."-Ambrose Parry, The Way of All Flesh (Raven, Fisher, and Simpson, #1)
"Sarah had been speaking the truth when she said she didn’t dislike him, but she did dislike his presumption of superiority over her, as she disliked it in all young men. Given the same chance, she was confident she would excel over any of them, so it stung when all they saw was a housemaid. Out of necessity, Raven was looking beyond that. Or at least she was offering him the occasion to. She hoped he didn’t disappoint."-Ambrose Parry, The Way of All Flesh (Raven, Fisher, and Simpson, #1)
