“I didn't come here to fight with you. I’m here to fight for you.”
“There isn't a single motivation, thought, act, or word that has slipped out of your being and escaped the full, undivided attention of God.”
“What?” Simon looked alarmed. ”I‘m not really sleeping with your mom, you know. I was just trying to get your attention. Not that your mom isn’t a very attractive woman for her age.”
“Can you stop calling me kid?" I snapped. "It may have escaped your attention, but I am not actually a child."The left corner of his mouth crept upward. "It hasn't escaped my attention.”
“If you don't pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves.”
