In a Lonely Place Quotes

Conflicting Promises of Love and Fear

Laurel Gray: I'll stay with you, Dix, I promise. I'll stay with you. I love you, Dix. I'll marry you. I'll go away with you. Take me...
Dixon Steele: You'd run away from me the first chance you get.

The Complexity of Trust and Violence

Laurel Gray: Dix doesn't act like a normal person. You don't go around hitting people, smashing cars, torturing your best friend. I'm scared of him. I don't trust him. I'm not even sure he didn't kill Mildred Atkinson.
Mel Lippmann: Laurel! You're going too far.
