“So while Ronald Ford was the son of royalty and I was King of the Dreamers, we were both impecunious.
But, as you can tell, pretty well-read.
All of which still counted for shit when you no money.
Downtown, in a parking lot in the middle of the day whilst people shopped around with their kids amidst their arguments and new purchases, Ronald Ford had purchased a range of narcotics.
It had been that quick to get high.”

“As far as I could tell his problems with his wife were pretty typical, they’d run out of things to say to one another. And the things they did think up to say were pretty unkind and shit. Their life and marriage sounded as if it consisted of him gradually removing their most impressive moments and then rearranging them in a mutually one-sided fashion so that every moment with her was torture.”

“When I was leaving August Burgman looked at me, mystified.
"You could've asked for the world!" she said, which just proved, she'd no idea how the goddamn world worked or how much it would’ve cost.”

“I’ve had affairs before but never like this - I need a reason to leave my wife,” Shimansky said, desperately appealing to me.
“Won't you wife be annoyed?" I asked.
“Probably. No doubt. She usually is…” he said.
“That's very complicated. Even worse, what if your wife forgives you…? What then? You going to stay with her and keep doing the other one…?”

“Can anyone be arrested for being such an asshole as him? Should they pass a law, legislate for just such things, make it a criminal offense you could be detained for being such an asshole?
But then most of the world's men would be behind bars serving life term sentences, without parole.”

“I wouldn't say I hate my job and hate my life. But if I'd to choose it'd be a pretty fine line and so indiscernible I easily wander over the border between the two and back again without ever being fully aware of the transgression.”

“Even if she was only just 17, sometimes a woman can be so busy they forget to have a sense of humour and can't remember even how beautiful they used to feel and all that remains is the marching band smile of several serious but invisible injuries.”
