Character: Alice Morgan (Alice Morgan)

Two psychologists proved in the dispute that positive self-deception is useful to people. Traditionally people lie to themselves about three things. They think of themselves better than I deserve; I believe that control over my life better than it actually is and believe that the future will be better than the present shows. But you went much further on the other side of the mirror. Self-deception will not help you, tell me what you want.
- Alice, help me to solve this problem, I suggest you become my accomplice.

- You were right, love does not really exist. It is seven-eighths of cruelty and betrayal. It's just stuff. I saw today a lot of substance, matter all over the place. There is nothing, absolutely empty.
- No games, listen, I did what wanted to do to help selflessly. I've risked my freedom because you don't have to suffer, and to catch murderers-morons who are just ruining the profession of the killer. This is the art of killing so that to achieve the goals, and not to be even suspected. Mind bought you your space and create a Paradise from the hell and heaven out of hell, he can also. The world is indifferent to the plight of people. It has always been. But you proved to me people can be interested in each other, even briefly, but this can be considered love.

- You are admirable, the fact that unable to understand how I did it, before all the other "Bobby". Unproven, however. I'll leave her alone, but not you. Brownie's honour. I'm your friend.
- One Cup of coffee doesn't make us friends. And I do not expect help from Prodigy killer. Presumably, of course...
- I like that, presumably the killer is a child Prodigy.

Some girls in my childhood I wanted a pony... Always wanted to be a widow.

- Why did you do that?
- Do what?
- Killed my parents.
- Because I wanted to.
- How can such a wish?
- Let's leave you in the same room with Ian Reid, and then decide who wants what.

- What, in your opinion, makes him to do it?
- He is convinced that we are given one life, one life and one love. Whoever takes life steals everything.
- You agree with him?
- I don't know... I Think if he read another book of another author at some point in their lives, it would become a different person.

The universe isn't evil, John. It's just indifferent.
The world is not cruel, John. He's just indifferent.
