Never Let Me Go quotes

  • Ruth: You hear things, don't you.

    Kathy: What kind of things?

    Ruth: Well, you know... Maybe after the fourth donation, when you've technically 'completed', you're still conscious in a way. And then you find out that there's more donations, plenty of them. Just no more recovery centers, no more carers. Just watching and waiting... till they switch you off... I don't think I fancy that.

  • Tommy: I don't suppose you both heard that Hailsham was closed? The only schools left now, you hear they're like battery farms... I'm sure that's an exaggeration, though.
