The tower Quotes

Allander paused and gestured with his eyes, indicating the space above Spade’s head. “I’m afraid I don’t have Jonsten’s delicate temperament.” He thrilled at the “I,” as if arriving at it after a long and tedious journey. “And, forgive me if I’m incorrect, but it seems that you can’t touch me in here, not even through a ceiling, which makes those muscles of yours about as useless as your sluggish brain.

Tony nodded. “Yeah, like, ‘Who could have committed such an egregious sin? Perhaps someone who feels cast out, who needs help and forgiveness.’ ” He waved his arms over his head as he imitated Jade.

You wish what? You wish to explore the common bonds we share as outsiders in our society?” He waved an arm in the air for emphasis, his voice drenched in sarcasm. “Well, then, that much we have in common. Hooray for your insightfulness. But I’m afraid that’s where our similarities end. You’re a beast who beats the walls of its prison, but what would you do if you were free? What heights, pray tell, are you just waiting to scale?” Allander shook his head, making sounds of disappointment deep in his throat. “I must confess, darling, I find you a bit tiresome.

A cop with sharp features and sandy blond hair came over and sat down next to Tony. A cigarette dangled casually from his lips, so natural-looking that it seemed like a part of his face.

The tower Quotes

Allander continued quietly, but his voice warbled as if under great strain. “You think you can measure the range, the depth of my sickness?” He shook his head slightly. “I don’t think you want to walk that landscape.” His eyes darted back and forth, flashing over Spade’s face, trying to gain entrance to his mind. He pried at it through Spade’s eyes, his nose, his mouth.

The tower Quotes

Dr. Yung continued, ignoring Jade’s interruption. “You see, people develop by grappling with their unconscious, their darker half. The shadow. It consists of all their deepest desires and fears. We’re all made of good and evil, of both parts. The yin and yang.” He gestured to the poster on the wall behind Jade and Travers. “Most people are a blend of both sides. But some, some people allow one side to take over.” “What do you mean ‘take over’?” Travers asked. “They are devoured,” the doctor said darkly, “by their shadow.” “So Allander has a problem differentiating reality from his fantasies?” Travers asked. “Not exactly. He can differentiate between the two, he just has nothing holding him back from acting on his wishes. His shadow is no longer held in check by his persona, or superego. So it roams free.” “A runaway libido with no brakes,” Jade mused. The doctor looked surprised. “Yes, Mr. Marlow. Something like that. I’m afraid I can’t be more helpful, but Allander was quite guarded, particularly when he spoke to me. I’m sure you’ve found that in the tapes.

The tower Quotes

Although she was in her sixties, Deborah Atlasia was an extremely attractive woman. Her smile radiated charm and grace, and she had a becoming self-assurance. She could fill an empty room with her smile. Her warmth carried over to her eyes. Jade recognized her eyes—they were Allander’s down to the crow’s-feet that wrinkled from the sides.

The tower Quotes

The tower Quotes

He was not the biggest man in the bar, but the look in his eyes was as hard as ice. It didn’t invite greeting. As he walked, he brought his fingertips up to the scar on his left cheek and absentmindedly traced its length.

The tower Quotes

Tony didn’t lose his temper. Because of his size, he never had to. And he had a gentle touch, even when he wasn’t being gentle. Tony’s personality could be read right off his face. He was never mean, and fair all the way through. If he ever hurt someone, it was deserved.

The tower Quotes

Tony was a large man, about six feet, two-fifty. Much of his size came from muscle, though it wasn’t readily apparent from his appearance. His face was round, his features soft. A thin sheen of sweat seemed always to cover his cheeks, and his snug-fitting shirt usually showed spots of dampness on the back. Jade couldn’t remember ever having seen him when he wasn’t sweaty.

The tower Quotes

My father’s files were confidential; they were destroyed after he passed away. However, I do know that Allander was a very precocious youngster at the time of the incident. He remembered everything. It was a horrific molestation—the extent of what he was put through we can only imagine.

The tower Quotes

You know, Marlow, you’re a real asshole.” Jade paused and ran his thumb across his bottom lip. “He gets himself killed breaking cover and I’m the asshole. Astonishing logic.

He shook his head slowly. “So young. Such a wonderful man. He was the youngest professor ever to get tenure there. I recall one of his colleagues said at his funeral that he was the only man he knew who could recite Paradise Lost beginning to end.” Jade shuddered. “A dubious distinction.” He was testing Thomas, but even this jab didn’t draw an angry response—only a disapproving stare. Very level man, very controlled, he thought.

The tower Quotes

Dr. Yung cleared his throat and spoke, hiding whatever anger he might feel under the calmness of his voice. “Needless to say, I hope that the matter before us is an important one.

The tower Quotes

Travers closed her eyes. Jade looked over at her, than back at the doctor. “You’ll have to excuse my colleague,” Travers said. “If it’s any consolation, I have to work with him.” Dr. Yung smiled and nodded at her gently. “I can imagine it’s quite taxing.” He ushered them down a hallway and into an office.

The tower Quotes

Her hand rooted in her purse and produced a roll of Tums. That purse was like the stomach of Jaws—she was always pulling out a pair of sunglasses, a new shade of lipstick, a waffle iron.

The man chuckled softly. “And everyone’s schedules should bow to your needs?” he asked. “The doctor spends weeks working with children to get them to the point of catharsis. The point which you so gracelessly interrupted.” “Well, why don’t you tell the doctor we’ll make it up to him later. I’m sure he’ll forgive us,” Jade said. “I’m afraid that’s not possible.” “And why not?” “Because I’m the doctor. And I have an unforgiving nature.

The tower Quotes

He noticed Thomas tense up as Allander’s name was said aloud. It was as if Jade had released it into the stagnant air of the house for the first time in years. So far, Thomas had used only euphemisms for his son’s name.

He was best known, however, for his instinct. Jade had instinct like a tiger on the prowl; it seemed to come from the very blood running in his veins.

The tower Quotes

He glanced at his watch. “I’m heading up to Ressler to interview the prison shrink.” Travers was quiet. “I guess you can come,” he said. “Just try not to talk too much.” “Won’t be hard with you around.

The tower Quotes

Okay. Thomas. What was he like before his childhood incident?” Mr. Atlasia paused and cast the line of his memory back, disturbing still waters. Jade watched his face to see if he told everything that was dredged up.

The tower Quotes

But he did show remorse,” Travers said. “The posing of the bodies.” “I don’t think so. Remorseful killers usually cover the faces.” “But not always.” “But not always,” Jade agreed. “I just don’t think it fits. I think the positioning of the bodies mocks what he perceives to be the parents’ hypocrisy. He left them as he sees them: blind to the truth, but going through the motions as if everything’s all right.

The tower Quotes

We live in a celebrity culture now. Or a wannabe-celebrity culture. The name of the game is visibility. If you aren’t tweeted, liked, YouTubed, or Instagrammed, you don’t exist.

Orphan X Quotes

Thomas showed Jade to the living room. Brown furniture and thick brown carpeting made the room darker than it should have been; it seemed to devour all the light let in by the windows. The fireplace was composed of large white-and-beige rocks that stuck out at strange angles to form an uneven surface. A Haydn symphony played in the background, the roll of a drum momentarily filling the air. Jade sat in a large brown chair, sinking in until he felt as if his knees were touching his chin. Mr. Atlasia sat down on the hearth. Apparently, he wasn’t bothered by the jagged edges of the rocks.

The Federal Bureau of Procrastination. Don’t act on a hunch unless it’s proven beforehand,” Jade said disdainfully. “Why did you join, then?” “Welding school was full that week.” He glanced at the files. “Look, are we gonna get down to business here? We both know he’ll kill again, and probably soon. It’s a game for him; it’s up to us to figure out the pattern. He’s choosing his victims to fulfill some symbolic equation he’s worked out in his head. We gotta get into that game. Into his head.

The tower Quotes

What I hope I have done is to show you, to show you what lies beneath all this corruption. Others want you to see, or hear, or speak their truths. I offer you no values, no workbooks, no catechisms. “Peel back the unblemished flesh that covers the face of reality, and then you’ll see the real truth pulsing beneath. More than that, you’ll feel it, and that’s my lesson for you—always reach for what you desire, what you truly desire. Your wishes lie like fish beneath the water’s surface. Call to them and they’ll come to you, and you’ll understand and be alive.

Allander continued, his words taking on the color of a rant. “Your educators will embark with you on a supposed journey for the truth, but they’ll deceive you. They’ll say things that mean nothing—they always do—and you’ll be forced to nod and agree as if they’re profound.

The tower Quotes

Then he was silent. Just like last time—one outburst and back to silence or dispassionate interaction.

The tower Quotes

God and country will step in to fill the void, offering you laws and equations, rules and punishments to carry you through those lonely, restless nights you spend tossing and turning in bed as the moon slides whispering in your window. “They’re worse than an opiate for the masses. They’ll turn you into deaf sheep standing in line as the truth bleats fearfully at the altar. They’ll have you standing in line for slaughter.” His eyes narrowed. “They’ll deafen you to the roar of your inner voice. That’s what they do. Soon, you won’t even be able to hear yourself.

The tower Quotes

Any more than you?” Allander sneered, rising to the bait. “You’re a personified superego, a walking shadow that’s run out of gas. Compare you to me. Hyperion to a satyr. I’ve lived through more than you can dream. I’ve lived the fantasies. I’m the only one to do it without a Greek wrap and I don’t need any forks for my eyes. Try checking that at the door, Doctor. Let that roll around on your back for a while.

The tower Quotes

I’m sorry, my dears, that time doesn’t allow me to continue your education. Just remember that your parents—or ‘mentors,’ whoever they’ll be—will try to ‘bring you up right,’ but they’ll have no concept of what that is. They’ll raise you to be functional and to imitate them and indulge in petty little successes. Resist them with all your might. “They won’t ready you for the time when reality rears its head. They’ve worn blinders for so long they’ve become a part of their heads. Maybe that’s what they desired all along—to have their vision restricted, expurgated.

The tower Quotes

The psychologist spoke loudly, an edge of sarcasm in his voice. “So let me get this straight, Atlasia. You’re the holder of human truth. You know the foibles of the human heart, its yearnings, its errors, its desires. And since you know them so intimately, you’re not afraid to act on them.” He paused dramatically. With interviews, timing was everything, Jade thought. “What makes you so special?” the psychologist continued. “Why should you know any more than I?

Travers spoke out of the side of her mouth as they walked past the frozen flock of reporters to meet McGuire at the front door. “Excellent poise, Marlow. Just what we meant by handling the press tactfully.” “Thank you, Travers. That’s how it’s done.” “I was being sarcastic.” “I wasn’t.

Placing his foot firmly on Hackett’s behind, he shoved once and the body fell over the side and dropped into the void. It landed with a loud thud at the bottom, where it lay like a discarded marionette.

The tower Quotes

Yes, yes,” he answered eagerly, ignoring Jade’s sarcasm. “I would be honored to help you, my dear Tracker. I confess ‘I am a gentleman and a gamester, for both are the varnish of a complete man.’

Allander smiled. “Well, if he doesn’t tell me nothing then he would, in fact, be telling me something. A double negative makes a positive. Your advice isn’t concordant with your desires.
