And when our children were growing up, it wasn't a house that protected them; and it wasn't our love that protected them--it was that promise.”

“When I see a rainbow, I think of God’s promise and how He’s keeping it. Then I remember the promise I made to Roy G. Biv, and how I just broke it.”

When you said no, I thought... well, you'd lost interest."She'd wanted to see him? Had she said that?"Butch, I wanted to see you."Yeah, she had. Twice.Well, now... didn't that perk a guy up.”
