that final shot of amma as the woman in white

“You can come up with four thousand other guesses, of course, about why Amma did it. In the end, the fact remains: Amma enjoyed hurting. ‘I like violence,’ she’d shrieked at me. I blame my mother. A child weaned on poison considers harm a comfort.” – Sharp Objects, Gillian Flynn
“Walking past Amma’s room, I saw her sitting very properly on the edge of a rocking chair, reading a book called Greek Goddesses. Since I’d been here, she’d played at being Joan of Arc and Bluebeard’s wife and Princess Diana—all martyrs, I realized. She’d find even unhealthier role models among the goddesses.” – Sharp Objects, Gillian Flynn
Elliot Alderson appreciation week↳Day 2: Favourite Quote
Maybe it’s not about avoiding the crash. But it’s about setting a break point to find
the flaw in the code, fix it, and carry on until you hit the next flaw.
The quest to keep going, to always fight for footing.
Maybe we’re all just stumbling from the right questions to the wrong answers,
or from the right answers to the wrong questions. It doesn’t matter where you go and where you come from, as long as you keep stumbling.
Maybe that’s all it takes. Maybe that’s as good as it gets.
