“An apple’s core principle it to not get eaten. And who wants to eat the core of an apple anyway?”

“I shrugged. 'Any fool can peel the Apple,' I said. 'It takes a real man to eat the core.”

“The sweeter the apple, the blacker the core. Scratch a lover and find a foe.”

“A man in good heart's core is one who can put new heart's core into someone.”

“Will tossed his apple core into the air, at the same time drawing a knife from his belt and throwing it. The knife and the apple scaled across the room together, somehow managing to stick into the wall just beside Gabriel's head, the knife driven cleanly through the core and into the wood. "Say that again," said Will. "And i'll darken your daylights for you.”

“So I should be aware of the dangers of self-consciousness, but at the same time, I’ll be plowing through the fog of all these echoes, plowing through mixed metaphors, noise, and will try to show the core, which is still there, as a core, and is valid, despite the fog. The core is the core is the core. There is always the core, that can’t be articulated.Only caricatured.”
