“Why did I come here? I thought. Why is it always only a matter of choosing between something bad and something worse?”
“Somehow, something always happens just before things get to the very worst. It is as if Magic did it. If I could only just remember that always. The worse thing never quite comes.”
“And what will be there, and what has there been here? Why was I so reluctant to part with life? There was something in this life I did not and do not understand.”
“Why are you here? Did you come to try to kill me again?” “Oddly enough, no. I—I had a bad dream. I needed to talk to someone.”
“Why did you choose to stay here?" (...)"I don't know," he said. "It's as if there's more oxygen here.”
“Faith is why I'm here today and faith is why I believe I can achieve something in my life.”
