“The thing Clay saw, the thing he now understood, was that the darkness of man was not an illusion. Men and women – the bold and the brave, the anxious, the timid, the poor, the wealthy, the sincere and the shallow – all hoped that evil was an illusion, but it was not.”

“He walked back to the rear door of the diner and lit his cigarette. He inhaled deeply, exhaled again and watched the smoke break up and disappear into nothing. Hell, he thought, and smiled nostalgically. That age he would have done the same damned thing himself.”

“Well, those thoughts are just the variety you should never think. You just put up a sign someplace in your head and you never let them in, okay?” He said it with certainty, and he said it with some degree of conviction in his voice, but all three of them knew that it was not always how you wanted it to be. Sometimes those things just found a way right on in, and once they were in you were done.”

“And love seemed now such a tortuous path, such an unknown territory. Navigating the arterial pathways of the heart. And even how it sounded. Falling in love. Surely that said everything that needed to be said. Like a headlong pitch forward into the hereafter. Why not rising into love? Hey, you'd never guess what happened? I rose into love . . . and man. was that a feeling. A feeling like no other.”

“Love, I would later conclude, was all things to all people. Love was the breaking and healing of hearts. Love was misunderstood, love was faith, love was the promise of now that became hope for the future. Love was a rhythm, a resonance, a reverberation. Love was awkward and foolish, it was aggressive and simple and possessed of so many indefinable qualities it could never be conveyed in language. Love was being. The same gravity that relentlessly pulled at me was defied as I rose into something that became everything.”
