Subject: QOTD Sunday June 19th, 2022

The following quotation is taken from Dragonfly In Amber by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 1992 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 5, Beloved Wife:

" "He liked to hurt people," I said. "He liked it a lot."

"Did he...hurt you?" Roger put the question with some delicacy, after a rather noticeable pause. Bree seemed to be drawing into herself, the skin tightening across her cheekbones.

"Not directly. Or not much, at least." I shook my head. I could feel a cold spot in the pit of my stomach, which the whiskey was doing little to thaw. Jack Randall had hit me there, once. I felt it in memory, like the ache of a long-healed wound.

"He had fairly eclectic tastes. But it was Jamie that he...wanted."

[> [> [> [> BJR, for sure, Kathy in PA. The small bit of humanity we saw with him and his brother Alex was not enough to change my mind. I AM intrigued, though, as to what shaped him. -- DianaH, Mon, June 20 2022, 7:06:14
