How we cite our quotes: (Part.Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
I look for places like me: big, hollow, forgotten by most everyone. (3.3.17)
Jesse says a lot about himself here. He's the one in the family voted Most Likely to be Forgotten—he's so forgotten, he barely knows himself, and he chooses to fill those empty places with fire.
Quote #5
They called [Julia] Freak, because she wasn't one of us. (3.6.52)
Let's add Julia to the list of people who have felt isolated in their youth. She didn't fit in while she was in college, so that helps her sympathize with Anna (and fall in love with Campbell… or she would if he would be honest about himself for once).
Quote #6
There are pictures of me, too, but not many. I go from infant to about ten years old in one fell swoop. (3.7.3)
Anna seems to suffer doubly from being both a genetic experiment and the youngest child. Her parents just don't care to document her childhood as much as they did with their other kids. No wonder Anna feels she doesn't exists—there's barely any physical evidence of her life.
