“Don’t fret none, darlin’. I got your back.” “You said that in Budapest. I still have the scars, too.”
“I got a body covered in scars, but then who doesn’t? If you don’t have a few scars, you haven’t really lived.”
“(...the non-conformist, how do you keep from getting scarred?)/i don’t! i got a scar here…and uh i got a scar on my knee…and uh a few scars on my soul.”
“You too heavy a man for me to carry...I done carried heavy men and I know how they can break your back. I ain’t got but this one back and I don’t want it broke again...”
“I’ve got your back. Nothing alive will ever hurt you if I have breath in me. And nothing dead will hurt you if I don’t.” (Kisten)”
“This is like that time in Budapest." "You and I remember Budapest very differently.”
