Quote by J. Ryan Stradal

“The name on that label was now just a nostalgic reminder of the real thing. And for years to come increasingly old men and women would sit in little bars off the highway and order it... If hearing themselves say the word Blatz makes them feel young, or beautiful, or invincible again, maybe it's OK that it survives. Maybe, for many years now, Blatz was already better as a story than as a beer.”

“I long to grow up, to be a man. I long to be in a hurry to do something, before time runs out. I long for the feeling that life is precious, that I have to cram as much as I can into every sun-drenched day and every frost-filled night; to know that childhood is special because it dies not last forever; to have friends, like Aiden and Roxy, who will not look at me strangely, and then turn away from me when I fail to age like them.”
