I meet a third man he's an old man he trips in the street he falls and I help him up, walk him to the curb. He shakes my hand says keep the faith, young man. I ask him what he means, he says keep running and don't let them catch you.

More quotes by James Frey
She made me feel better than I have ever felt, better than I imagined I could feel, and it scared me, it scared me to the point of paralysis.
James Frey
I'm a writer. I never expected to be recognised on the street. I never expected to get that kind of coverage, good or bad. I never expected to sell as many books as I have.
James Frey
I will not allow people to impose rules on me that don't make sense to me. And I live and work very much outside the literary world and the literary system. What they think and what they believe and what their rules are mean nothing to me.
James Frey
Leonard asks me if there's anything I need to know before he dies, I think about it for a minute, turn to him, say what's the meaning of life, Leonard? He laughs, says that's an easy one, my son, it's whatever you want it to be.
James Frey
He pulled out turned west and started driving towards the glow it was thousands of miles away, he started driving towards the glow.
James Frey
On my first day in jail, a three hundred pound man named Porterhouse hit me in the back of the head with a metal tray. I was standing in line for lunch and I didn't see it coming. I went down. When I got up, I turned around and started throwing punches. (James Frey, pg.1)
James Frey
I stand, walk over to him, sit down on his bed, put my arms around him, hug him. He hugs me back strong and I can feel the shame coming through his arms. I am a Criminal and he is a Judge and I am white and he is black, but at this moment none of that matters. He is a man who needs a friends and I can be his friend.
James Frey
It's been great getting better with you.
James Frey
The greatest rules of dramatic writing are conflict, conflict, conflict.
James Frey
Dreams can come true there [Los Angeles]in ways impossible anywhere else, and they can get destroyed as well.
James Frey
All of us started normal. All of us started out as functioning human beings with the potential to do almost anything we wanted, but somewhere along the paths of our lives, we got lost.
James Frey
But we are what we are, and humans will always hate.
James Frey
There is emotion in the hug, and there is respect and a form of love. Emotion that comes from honesty, respect that comes from challenge, and the form of love that exists between people whose minds have touched, whose hearts have touched, whose souls have touched. Our minds touched. Our hearts touched. Our souls touched. We separate.
James Frey
I think as an artist or a writer it's OK to want to control your own work.
James Frey
Are we biology or God or something higher? I know my heart beats and I listen to it. The beat is biology, but what is the song?
James Frey
Be strong. Live honorably and with dignity. When you don't think you can, hold on.
James Frey
Love is love. It doesn't matter how or who you love. I don't believe the messiah would condemn gay men and women.
James Frey
I hope nobody took the Razzle Dazzle Rose.
James Frey
But all good things come to an end, often a sad angry miserable end. The cause for such an end can usually be whittled down to one of three things: money, sickness, love lost.
James Frey
I have a great amount of confidence and faith in my abilities to write. There are other areas of my life where I'm not as confident, and have not as much faith, but when it comes down to writing and working, I don't worry about it. I trust myself to get it right.
