“I've done my damndest to rip a reader's nerves to rags, I don't want him satisfied.”
“I was not wounded in any part of my body, but I had never experienced such intense pain, such a ripping of the nerves, such an ache of the heart.”
“and so when I couldn't stand it no longer, I lit out. I got into my old rags and my sugar-hogshead again, and was free and satisfied.”

“I don't like money actually, but it quiets my nerves.”
