“Trevor and his father watched as two mortal enemies from the deadliest conflict in human history shared a reunion as joyful as one between long-lost brothers....

“Trevor climbed once again to the land of the living, naked except for an antique gas mask strapped to his face. As he peered through glass eyes like a mutant fly and breathed through the alien snoot, a single thought coiled through the booby-trapped labyrinth of his brain:
I need to be alone.
I need to be alone.
I need to be alone.”

“Trevor could almost see the invisible gas leaking from the broken furnace, billowing around his body, wafting in his wake from the laundry room to the living room, seeking out the nostrils of the realtor, the yuppies, the toddler, and every other goddamn trespasser before seeping into their bloodstream and infecting their cells until they dizzied, ached, barfed, and fell to the floor like a bunch of—

“Trevor possessed many of the qualities of a vampire without actually being one. He constantly preyed on me, was deeply charismatic, and tried to suck the life out of me.”
“Trevor realized that the odd thing about English is that no matter how much you screw sequences word up up, you understood, still, like Yoda, will be. Other languages don't work that way. French? Dieu! Misplace a single le or la and an idea vaporizes into a sonic puff. English is flexible: you can jam it into a Cuisinart for an hour, remove it, and meaning will still emerge.”

“Trey has a bone-deep mistrust of marriage or anything resembling it. She knows that Lena sometimes stays the night at Cal's place, but Lena also has a place of her own, which she can go back to whenever she wants, and where no one else has any say or any right of entry. To Trey, this seems like the only possible arrangement with any sense to it.”

“Trey’s breath hitched as his son literally flung himself at him. “Jesus, Kye.”
“Dad, when I’m Alpha of the pack and you’re a sad old man with nothing to do—”
“Wait, a sad old man?” Trey asked him.
“It’s gonna happen,” Kye asserted. “Anyway, after I kick your butt and take over the pack—”
“That’s how you’re planning to become Alpha? By kicking my butt?”
“You can’t take it personally, Dad.”
Chuckling, Taryn ruffled her son’s hair.”

“Trey scoffed. "Between you and me, Brayden's probably the last guy in the world you have to worry about. I think he's as clueless as you are. If I didn't care about your virtue so much, I'd actually probably give him a lecture on 'how' to try something." -Trey, pg. 70”

“Trey Spruance didn't want to tour for ages. And Dean Menta has always been our guitar-roadie during Angel Dust, and I remember him playing fantastically during soundchecks. During each gig, he was watching from the side of the stage, seeing Big Jim play stuff that he could play better.”
“Tri-guna appears in discourse of Krishna prominently,
To Arjun upon the battlefield of Kurukshetra clearly;
That the backdrop for the Bhagwat Gita surely be,
All three gunas are held to delude the world clearly:
त्रिभिर्गुणमयैर्भावैरेभिः सर्वमिदं जगत्।
मोहितं नाभिजानाति मामेभ्यः परमव्ययम्॥ ७.१३॥
tribhirguṇamayairbhāvairebhiḥ sarvamidaṁ jagat |
mohitaṁ nābhijānāti māmebhyaḥ paramavyayam || 7.13||
World deluded by these Three Gunas does not know Me:
Who beyond these Gunas and imperishable does but be.

“TRIAD: Three separate highways intersect at a place no reasonable person would ever want to go. Three lives that would have been cut short, if not for hasty interventions by loved ones. Or Fate. Three people, with nothing at all in common except age, proximity, and a wish to die. Three tapestries, tattered at the edges and come unwoven to reveal a single mutual thread.”

“Trial began on Friday, July 23, 1875... the jury which was finally selected consisted of eight Mormons, three Gentiles, and one Jack Mormon... When finally the case was closed and the case given to the jury, they could not agree upon a verdict, the eight Mormons all being for acquittal and the other four, all for conviction. The court was obliged to begin all over again and try the case before another jury. Even the most cursory examinations of the court records will show that between the first and second trials of Lee, something happened. When court opened again on September 14, 1876, the whole tone was changed... R.N. Baskin and other non-Mormons insisted that the leaders of the Mormon church had entered into an agreement with District Attorney Howard that Lee might be convicted and pay the death penalty, if the charges against all other suspected persons would be withdrawn. This was to be done by a jury composed only of Mormons, who would bring a verdict of "guilty", if names of other participants were left out of the discussion... This time the trial proceeded with dispatch. Men who had participated, and for almost twenty years had sealed their lips, now came forward to testify... On September 20, the case was given to the all-Mormon jury, who deliberated three and one-half hours and brought in a verdict of "guilty." [Lee was] convicted of murder in the first degree...”

“Trial by fire.
It forges a heart of iron.
And sets it alight.”
Source: Heart on Fire
“Trial by Fire
Loneliness is a cold flame
that flays the soul.
When you pass through the fire
you know things then
no mortal man should know.
You're Lazarus come from the dead
living among men with
your death still on you,
knowing too much to ever have a friend,
a broken building with lights left on
sagged against the sky, mortally wounded.
You'd thought that by enduring
You'd come to peace and reconciliation,
warm hands.
You come instead to a place
where no one's been
and stand in the starless night
hands to your face
and no strength left,
lost from man and unknown to God
and no way back.
It's then you know
you must make a place for yourself
of dry bones and anguish,
wring light from the substance of your will
and hope from the bone-dry earth.
It's then you know
that the only chance you stand
is to forge a star
out of your living breath.”
