After his wife was kidnaped he thought “My Love, my only love – Don’t think that way. Jason Bourne spoke: she is a valuable possession taken from you! Get her back.

Monsters! They are under the bed; They might be in the storeroom. Those things in the basement, the attic, and as well be the relic in the mirror, the chilly eyes gazing toward you for despising.
