Beloved

"Riches in a purse."

"I am my sister's daughter."

"Sweet, child, and free."

"Recollect nothing."

"Anything dead coming back to life hurts."

"My body was not my own."

"Whitefolks don't know nothing."

"The tin tobacco box wasn't lying."

"I am not at the one bit."

"Eat, baby. Eat."

"Consent I never gave."

"Whitefolks have taken all I had. Not just material things. They took me, the me of me."

"If anything, she thought, slavery was all that."

"Thick Love."

"Love is or it ain't. Thin love ain't love at all."

"Not a joke. A true thing."
