“People around me died, usually in horrible and bloody ways.”

“Do you not then hear this horrible scream all around you that people usually call silence.”

“What happened to me separates me from the normal world in a negative way. Like a handicap or disfiguring deformity, it's too horrible for some people to deal with, and it makes them uncomfortable whenever they're around me. ~Leigh Byrne, Call Me Tuesday”

“And I can see that something else died there in the bloody mud, and was buried in the blizzard. A people's dream died there. It was a beautiful dream.”

“People often think I'm a faker, but I'm usually honest, in a certain way--in such a way that often nobody believes me!”

“Me, I want to bloody kick this moronic bloody world in the bloody teeth over and over till it bloody understands that not hurting people is ten bloody thousand times more bloody important than being right.”
