“Much blood has been spilled over words, and a great deal of it over the word ‘God.’ (125)”
“The walls are covered -crammed- with writing. No. Not writing. They are covered with a single four-letter word that has been inscribed over and over, on every available surface. Love.”
“A red sun rises. Blood has been spilled this night.”
“All words are written in the same ink,'flower' and 'power,' say, are much the same,and though I might write 'blood, blood, blood'all over the page, the paper would not be stainednow would I bleed.”
“Pleasing a woman, hearing the sultry words spill from her lips as he pushed her over the edge, that’s what got him off.”
“I'm not looking for God, only for myself, and that is far more complicated. God has a great deal written about Him; nothing has been written about me.”
