“This is the evening of the two-fisted prayer”

“It's dark out, Jack, the stations out there don't identify themselves, we're in it raw-blind like burned rats, it's running out all around us, the footprints of the beast, one nobody has any notion of. The white and vacant eyes of something above there, something that doesn't know we exist. I smell heartbreak up there, Jack, a heartbreak at the center of things, and in which we don't figure at all.”

“Nobody's a long time.”

“The one who comes to question himself cares for mankind.”

“God must have loved the people in power, for he made them so much like their own image of him.”

“I want to buy me a hat with a golden feather & a book with the confessions of God in it”

“You look nice in those old slacks, but in the raw you are Beauty herself.”
