“If you've put yourself in a position where someone has to see you in order for you to be safe - to see you, and to give a fuck - you've already blown it.”

“I had to ride slow because I was taking my guerrilla route, the one I follow when I assume that everyone in a car is out to get me. My nighttime attitude is, anyone can run you down and get away with it. Why give some drunk the chance to plaster me against a car? That's why I don't even own a bike light, or one of those godawful reflective suits. Because if you've put yourself in a position where someone has to see you in order for you to be safe--to see you, and to give a fuck--you've already blown it... We had a nice ride through the darkness. On those bikes we were weak and vulnerable, but invisible, elusive, aware of everything within a two-block radius.”

“You see yourself as such a fucking shepherd But you trip the blind and then you curse the leper Do you really want my true opinion? You've taken more than you've ever given”

“How you see where you are always depends on where you've been.”

“You've a good heart. Sometimes that's enough to see you safe wherever you go. But mostly, it's not.”

“Sometimes you've just gotta give yourself what you wish you were getting from someone else.”
