"I wanted to see if you were still good. I could have blown you away when you hesitated in front of the door, with your keys jingling so nicely."
    - Edward to Anita after he breaks into her apartment

Edward had no conscience. It made him the perfect killer.

"You will never lose your nerve. Your life, probably, but never your nerve."
    - Edward to Anita
