Quotes by Allen Kurzweil (?)

“Once the interlude was over and I was released, I fled the room and, taking the stairs two at a time, found refuge in a dank corner of the basement filled with potatoes and mice. I stayed there until dinner, doing my best to stop crying by staring at the glowing face of my father’s wristwatch.”
― Allen Kurzweil, Whipping Boy: The Forty-Year Search for My Twelve-Year-Old Bully
