Quote by Shaye Madison

“I had to remind myself, often it seemed, that the pain, the aches, the bruises--they all meant I was alive. A racing heart, pounding against my rib cage; the drowsiness of drunkenness; the tears that came from remembering, the stolen breaths, the crushing weight pushing me down. They all meant I was alive.”

He had been seen at half-past twelve on a Sunday morning walking in Hyde Park in a top-hat and frock-coat, reading the News of the World. His passion for the unexplored led him to hunt up obscure pamphlets in the British Museum, to unravel the emotional history of income tax collectors, and to find out where his own drains led to.”
