Quote

My feet are killing me. I knew somebody who had feet like that. They'd walk all over him. Archie Kashanian was his name. He used to wake up with footprints all over his chest, all over his face. It was the death of him, finally.

But I think humans are innately religious as a species, so you don't need a specific excuse for examining the perversely unholy.

Angels have very nasty tempers. Especially when they’re feeling righteous.

Behind their eyes the hope was sickening and in many, dead. They lived from event to event with a subtle terror of the gap between, filling up their lives with distractions to avoid the emptiness where curiosity should have been.

Nothing else wounds so deeply and irreparably. Nothing else robs us of hope so much as being unloved by one we love
