Ava Zavora quotes:

Virtue makes for a cold bed.

What I should do and what I want to do are two opposing forces. I have no idea which way I am going to end up.

An endless scream pierced the frigid night air and shook the world with its rage and sorrow. The aged stone and brick that had withstood the great quake over a hundred years ago now trembled before its pain, and even the austere grimace of the lonely grotesque, its only witness, softened in pity.
