“I decided, long ago, back-room negotiations with a nine iron and a pen, witness tampering, and suppression of evidence weren’t for me. That’s what was expected of an independent lawyer hired by Louis Fernoza. I wanted the corner office overlooking a cityscape, the fine car and house, and the ability to sleep at night with a clear conscience. I’d say I achieved it all but not without a price.”

“I loved the chase. Even Riveaux’s insane driving. Not just the velocity but the violence of it all. I liked speeding through red lights. Headfirst to the edge. Scraping enough skin to burn not bleed. Sleuthing was impossible sometimes, a doomed quest. It was godly, really. A gorgeous curse. Like a plague of locusts. Like kissing a married woman.”

“Nedir asıl sorun diye düşünüyorum. Asıl sorun? Asıl sorun tek başına ayakta durabilmekte, yalnızlığı öğrenebilmekte mi? Asıl sorun sevgisiz yaşayabilmekte mi? Sevgisiz kalıp direnmeyi, sevgisiz kalıp gene de boyun eğmemeyi, dilenmemeyi öğrenmekte mi? Asıl öğrenmemiz gereken şey sevgisiz bir yaşam düzeni mi? Gitmekle ne iyi ettin. Haklı olan senmişsin! Ben romantik, yanlış kitaplarla, kötü yaşam örnekleriyle aldatılmış, yaşamanın anlamını kavramaktan yoksun, kibirlinin biriymişim. İnsan tek başına yaşamı karşılamak zorunda, bense ille de bir sevgiliyle el ele verip değiştirecektim dünyayı! Ne ham hayal, ne zırvalık.”
