Jim Butcher Quote

Wait. You don't understand. I just wanted it to stop. Wanted the hurting to stop.I smoothed a bloodied lock of hair from her eyes and felt very tired as I said, The only people who never hurt are dead.The light died out of her eyes, her breath slowing. She whispered, barely audible, I don't understand.I answered, I don't either.A tear slid from her eye and mixed with the blood.Then she died.
