“Here was a man who wore his scars on the outside and held a merry heart within. How much better that was than its opposite.”

“How dangerous is the acquirement of knowledge and how much happier that man is who believes his native town to be the world, than he who aspires to be greater than his nature will allow.”

“Don’t you want to go outside and… shag?” It was a strange word, but much better than fuck. A quick grin lit his face before he responded. “Oh no. Right here. Love to do it in a truck.”

“A man who as a physical being is always turned toward the outside, thinking that his happiness lies outside him, finally turns inward and discovers that the source is within him.”

“Its strange how people say love and hate are opposites, when in truth they have so much in common. Both are the stronger than we will ever know or realize, they have the power to blur the sane. For a man in love will sacrifice himself for who he loves Just as a man in hate will kill in rage.”

“...maybe it was better to break a man's leg than to break his heart.”
