“Did you know you can just order a trophy from a company and engrave it however you want? I ordered myself a trophy in the exact size, shape, and fake plastic luster as the one state basketball championship trophy that sits in my high school's awards cabinet. Except instead of being about basketball, my trophy says Marion Lafournier, World's Biggest Cynic. And really, who could blame me?”
Dennis E. Staples, This Town Sleeps

“Spirits can be bitches like that.”
Dennis E. Staples, This Town Sleeps

“[Carey, medicine man] '...I can feel it in your energy. You don't respect me or this ceremony.'
I shrug. 'You got me there.'
'Why?'
'I don't know--I guess--maybe I'd like to know a little bit about your qualifications? Do you have a degree in medicine?'
'Even better. I'm a card-carrying member of the Board of Shamans. BS for short.' Carey pulls out a card from a bison-skin wallet. 'Proof.'
'This is a strip of birch bark.' I turn it over. 'And you drew a cock on it!”
Dennis E. Staples, This Town Sleeps
