Thursday Quotables is a weekly meme hosted by Bookshelf Fantasies. This weekly feature is the place to highlight a great quote, line, or passage discovered during your reading each week. This week I’ve decided to throw another shout out to the Deadly Class graphic novel series. It’s no secret that this is my favourite graphic novel series and the content/quotes are endless.

The Quotes
—
“This isn’t a dress rehearsal Marcus, you only get the one turn. Life is a series of unique opportunities. It’s our job to find the happiness in each one.”
—
“It’s not even the other kids, because fuck them. It’s me. My anxiety. I do this thing after I’m around people where I obsessively over analyze every interaction to see where I went wrong or who I offended.”
—
“Lex and me, we’re gonna assassinate bankers, oil company executives…”
“Bananarama. Don’t forget bloody Bananarama.”
—
“Depression is a big fucked-up monster. Everyone gets a turn, whether or not they want to own up to it. It’s a hard fight that fucks you top to bottom. Drains you hollow. And when you’re finally rid of it, there’s something about having overcome it that robs you of compassion.”
This sounds like a great series, love the quotes.
