“Mr. Russell, don’t you think I’m too young for you?”
His eyes flashed as his face hardened into a mask.
--Farewell My Life: Buona Notte Vita Mia”
Cynthia Sally Haggard, Farewell My Life: Buona Notte Vita Mia

“I talk of those incidents [with Bonnie and Clyde] as if I were not a part of any of it, like a character in a book I once read. It’s the only way I keep from going crazy. Maybe we were all pretty young then, but we knew what we were doing. Clyde never held a gun to my head. I was there because I wanted to be! What’s that they say in the movies? ‘The show must go on!’ Well, life goes on.”
Blanche Caldwell Barrow, My Life with Bonnie and Clyde
