Quote by Rejmond Karver

“Mislim da smo završili", rekao je. "Mislim da si je uhvatio. Pogledaj. Šta misliš?" Ali nisam otvorio oči. Hteo sam da ih još malo držim zatvorene. Činilo mi se da tako treba da postupim. "Onda?", rekao je, "Da li gledaš?" Oči su mi i dalje bile sklopljene. Bio sam u svojoj kući. Znao sam. Ali, nisam se osećao kao da sam negde unutra." "To je stvarno nešto", rekoh.”

“It was then I remembered back to those days and how telephones used to jump when they rang. And the people who would come in those early-morning hours to pound on the door in alarm. Never mind the alarm felt inside. I remembered that, and gravy dinners. Knives lying around, waiting for trouble. Going to bed and hoping I wouldn’t wake up. I love you, Bro, you said. And then a sob passed between us. I took hold of the receiver as if it were my buddy’s arm. And I wished for us both I could put my arms around you, old friend. I love you too, Bro. I said that, and then we hung up.”

“There is a clarity about how children see the world that the complexities of adult life often muddy. And there is a fervor children feel when they believe adults have misled them or disguised or hidden the truth (p.89)....Fear and doubt might be mitigated or assuaged, but something even more profound was at risk. And that was trust. If so many things were not as they seemed, who had misled me? Who and what could I believe. (p. 105)”
