**Macy:** We have to live and love and make our own mistakes. That's what life is all about.

**Francesca's manifestation:** All you had to do was be a good little witch, but you refused! Especially once Waverly was born!
**Abigael:** You never even let me hold her.
**Francesca's manifestation:** Because I knew that vile darkness within you would come out. And sure enough, you snuck in her room and almost burned her alive with those filthy fingers of fire. That's why I sent you away.
