“....I know you've told me you love me, but what do I mean to you?" Dirk was quiet for a long time, and Lee wondered what Dirk was going to say. "Everything." Dirk answered, and Lee realized that sometimes a single word said it all.”
“He sat staring before him, seeing nothing but a long line of Mortimers, inexhaustable and prolific to the end of time.”
“We moved wordlessly from one room to another, from the room of the dead to the room where time lay in pages everywhere I looked.”
“It's only knitting and it's one of the few times in your life when there are no bad consequences to a mistake.”
“One of the few times in a man's life when he is not full of shit!!The morning of a colonoscopy. Enough said!”
