True Blood2008

Sophie-Anne:
What gives you the right to say "no" to the femoral blood of a good human woman? You know what your problem is, William? You're a snob. I hate snobs. I also hate tiny, tiny souls... or penises.

[to Hadley]

Sophie-Anne:
Get out.

[to Bill]

Sophie-Anne:
Have you eaten?

Bill Compton:
Not tonight, but...

Sophie-Anne:
I have several new members at court. A Latvian boy. Has to be tasted to be believed. Not polluted like most humans. Just exactly the way they use to taste just after I was turned. Before the Industrial Revolution f***ed everything to hell. Should I summon him?

Bill Compton:
[slightly chagrined] No, thank you. There are pressing matters at hand that I need your help with. I need to know how to kill a maenad.

Sophie-Anne:
A maenad, in Bon Temps? That's random.

Bill Compton:
Yes. She seems to have caused some sort of mass hypnosis. The whole town has devolved to a primitive state in a matter of days.

Sophie-Anne:
Oh my. She's an old one. Well, they're all old. Relics.

Bill Compton:
Ancient Greece, correct?

Sophie-Anne:
Before that even. Orgies, sacrifice?

Bill Compton:
Yes.

Sophie-Anne:
Cannibalism?

Bill Compton:
We suspect.

Sophie-Anne:
Oh, finally!

Bill Compton:
So, how do I kill it?

Sophie-Anne:
You can't. She's convinced herself she's immortal and so she is... William surly you know everything that exists imagined itself into existence.

Bill Compton:
Umm... I'm not entirely familiar with that theory, no.

Sophie-Anne:
[musing] Well, think about it. Imagine that you're a wild young girl who's married to some jerk who treats you like property and is also f***ing some 14-year-old boy. And along comes this religion which encourages you to get hammered, run naked through the woods, have sex with who ever, what ever, and it's all part of getting closer to God?

Bill Compton:
I can see how that would have it's appeal, especially to humans with their tendencies towards puritanism.

Sophie-Anne:
Exactly! So you're f***ing everybody in the dirt, why not kill something and eat it raw? Hey, you're super pious. There's nothing you can't do and each time you do, it brings you one step closer to the divine.

Bill Compton:
Isn't that delusional?

Sophie-Anne:
Never under-estimate the power of blind faith. It manifests in ways that bend the laws of physics or breaks them entirely.
