“The art of a sincere and heartfelt apology is one of the greatest skills you will ever learn.”
Jeanette LeBlanc

James          Anderson
“Maybe it was being orphaned and alone all my life, but I always steeled for the worst outcome I could envision. That way I could shrug and be almost happy with anything that fell short of the worst. It was a peculiar life skill and one I had gotten damn good at.”
James Anderson, The Never-Open Desert Diner
