Quotes by J.R. Dawson (?)

“Evil has eyes, too. Evil has cheeks, lips, ears, toes their parents counted, holiday traditions, and a favorite song. Evil is human. Evil looks straight at you while they hurt you. Lots of people love a reason to do bad things and get away with it.”
― J.R. Dawson, The First Bright Thing
