Quote by Craig D. Lounsbrough

“I can only speak of wonder. But if you are too blinded by the shallowness of men who shout empty platitudes into hungry hearts, my words will be crowded out by the empty platitudes that stole the place in your heart that wonder was created for.”

“What attracted men? Good looks? Certainly if a girl was pretty then she tended to get the attention of men; that was beyond any doubt at all. But it was not just prettiness that mattered, because there were many girls who did not look anything special but who seemed to find no difficulty in making men notice them.

“A man shined to her left. He was called Lorenzo and he drank a hot chocolate with whole milk. He sipped it with fleshy, pink lips and 60 k.f. gulped it down his large neck that seemed to be a kind of engine.
