❝ Every plan has a fatal flaw. Sometimes it’s the heart… even in those who are supposed to be the most careful. But a careful nature doesn’t always ensure success. When a plan is built on an unstable foundation… failure is not only a possibility, it’s a certainty. ❞
Emily, Revenge: Sabotage (via trailers46)
❝ From the moment we’re born, we’re drawn to form a union with others. An abiding drive to connect, to love, to belong. In a perfect union, we find the strength we cannot find in ourselves. But the strength of the union cannot be known… until it is tested. ❞
Emily, Revenge: Union (via trailers46)
❝

Death is a thief it takes and keeps all that a person is, a person was. And when death takes from us someone as extraordinary as Amanda, it takes with it not just her past, but who she was to us everyday. Amanda was special but she never had it easy. A childhood torn from her, a rough adolescence and a damning identity that was thrust upon her which she wore with dignity until she made herself a new name, Amanda Porter. A name that was her own, free from the binds of history; looking forward with the man who loved her for all of her strengths and all of her weaknesses.

Amanda all of us here today have embraced you and we love you. We will protect the husband and child that you leave behind. The sister that you were just getting to know, and we will treat every new day as a gift, approaching it with the same bravery and determination with which you lived your entire life.

❝ Penance is a sacrifice, a voluntary sacrifice to show remorse for a sin. The more grievous the sin, the greater the self-inflicted suffering. For some, the ultimate penance is death, but for others, it is simple a means to an end. ❞
Revenge (via southeasternguy)
❝ To carry a secret is to play with fire. Try to pass it on and you risk hurting someone else. Hold on to it and eventually you’ll get burned. ❞
