- [first lines]
- Emily Thorne: When I was a little my understanding of revenge was as simple as the Sunday school proverbs it hid behind. Neat little morality slogans, like 'Do unto others' and 'Two wrongs don't make a right.' But two wrongs can never make a right because two wrongs can never equal each other. For the truly wronged real satisfaction can only be found in one of two places absolute forgiveness or mortal vindication. This is not a story about forgiveness."
- Lydia Davis: You must come from a family of polar bears. Because that water is ice cold.
- Emily Thorne: Only at first, then you can't feel anything.
- Lydia Davis: Sounds like my marriage.
- Emily Thorne: For the truly wronged, real satisfaction can only be found in one of two places: absolute forgiveness, or mortal vindication. This is not a story about forgiveness.
- Emily Thorne: When everything you love has been stolen from you... Sometimes all you have left is revenge.
- David Clarke: All I ask is that you promise to do the one thing that's been so hard for me to do. Forgive.
- Emily Thorne: But that was a promise I couldn't keep. When deception cuts this deep, someone has to pay.
- Ashley Davenport: [to Victoria] We volunteered together at the Met this winter. Apparently, being a sustaining patron just wasn't enough for Emily.
- Emily Thorne: I try to give back as much as I can.
- Emily Thorne: [explaining her community involvement to Victoria] Oh, I try to give back as much as I can.
