The future was one thing that could never be broken, because it had not yet had the chance to be anything.

To be unbroken, what would that be?If words that were spoken, had not shattered me

The utter unbroken silence was more appalling than any ominous noise, than the loudest yells of anguish, than the most piercing screaming...Dead silence.Literally dead.

The bent but unbroken ones.
