And they do try, of course, but Monday always comes, and all the drones have to scuttle back to their dreary workaday lives of meaningless toil and suffering.
Jeff Lindsay
It's terrible to have to depend on someone else.
Jeff Lindsay
No big deal. We all have blood in us, the trick is keeping it inside.
Jeff Lindsay
A man can take only so much. Even a phony man like me.
Jeff Lindsay
you can’t use logic on human behavior.

Could this be the Apocalypse ?
Jeff Lindsay
Dying makes everyone weaker, subject to painful insight, and not always insight into any kind of special truth - it's just the approaching end that makes people want to believe they are seeing something in the line of a great revelation.
Jeff Lindsay
It was such an unexpected and genuine smile that if I only had a soul I'm sure I would have felt quite guilty.
