“I think we all are forever looking for costumes. We are naked and fearful fools in search of disguises, with pockets to hide our sins in. Actor's rags.”
Pete Beatty, Cuyahoga

“Do anything regular enough, and it becomes sacrament.”
Pete Beatty, Cuyahoga

“Now, you have not met any citizens of Cleveland yet. Here is your first. It is a trick to tell apart a Cleveland man from an Ohio city man. They look the same and generally at the same. The only difference is that Clevelanders are wrong all over.”
Pete Beatty, Cuyahoga
