Jim Butcher
When I'm in turmoil, when I can't think, when I'm exhausted and afraid and feeling very, very alone, I go for walks. It's just one of those things I do. I walk and I walk and sooner or later something comes to me, something to make me feel less like jumping off a building.
Jim Butcher
The next time you interfere with me, more than smoke will interfere with you.
Jim Butcher
