Like a cartoon world, where the figures are flat and outlined in black, jerking through some kind of goofy story that might be real funny if it weren’t for the cartoon figures being real guys Picture Quote #1

What idiocy, to racing into this story and its labyrinths, sprinting away from our happiness among the fresh spring grasses by the oak Picture Quote #1

From fire, water, the passage of time, neglectful readers, and the hand of the censor, each of my books has escaped to tell me its story Picture Quote #1

I hope you’re ready, because I’m about to tell you the story of my life. More specifically, why my life ended. And if you’re listening to these tapes, you’re one of the reasons why Picture Quote #1

Maybe they didn’t want you to realize that every civilization has its weakness. There’s always one thing we depend on. And if someone takes it away all that’s left is some story in a history class Picture Quote #1

The problem I have with haters is that they see my glory, but they don’t know my story Picture Quote #1
