Quotes about Mandy
* Linus Roache, in . Madison Bloom, Pitchfork (2020-11-23).

Embracing Creative Freedom in Music
Quotes about Mandy
When it came to the music … I was just free just to be this crazy narcissist. I wasn't trying to channel anything other than, "I'm going to be the best bloody rock singer I ever could try to be." I just was in creative heaven, to be honest.
Confrontation of Power and Desperation
Jeremiah Sand
You unholy abomination! You aren't even worth my spit! It's all that hate in your heart… that's to blame. It follows you everywhere, man. Follows you everywhere. I can still help you. It's not just your life I can save. No. It's your goddamned soul.
Jeremiah Sand
No, no! No, no! Please, please. Please don't hurt me! Can't you see this was all part of your journey? A journey that led you to me… to your salvation, your cleansing… by my hand…
Jeremiah Sand
I'll blow you, man! I'll suck your fucking dick! Is that what you want? Please! Please! Please talk to me.
Jeremiah Sand
No. No. I don't kneel before you! You kneel before me! I carry God's gift in my heart, not you! So you kneel before me, motherfucker!
Red Miller
I'm your God now.
Confrontation of Love and Manipulation
Jeremiah Sand
You and that ugly little whore. You think you're so… in love. I'll show you love. Lucy. Kneel.
[whispers in Lucy's ear]
Jeremiah Sand
Now show him… how much you love me.
Red Miller
No. No. No. No. No!
[struggles]
Jeremiah Sand
Another pearl... wasted before swine.
[after the revolver only clicks]
Brother Swan
Yeah. Take a good look, you piece of human excrement. This is the Tainted Blade of the Pale Night. Straight from the Abyssal Layer.
Jeremiah Sand
Poor stupid pigs. Born without souls. You know what Jesus big mistake was, huh? He didn't offer up a sacrifice in his stead. The cruciform is a constant reminder of that.
[takes the blade from Brother Swan; stabs Red in his side]
