“Don't go thinking poetry's just for sissies. There's mushy love poems, for sure, but there's also funny ones, lots about nature, war even. Whole point of it - they make ya feel something.' His dad had told him many times that the definition of a real man is one who cries without shame, reads poetry with his heart, feels opera in his soul, and does what's necessary to defend a woman. (...) The words made him think of Kya, Jodie's little sister. She'd seemed so small and alone in the mash's big sweep. He imagines his own sister lost out there. His dad was right - poems made you feel something.”

“Jag skulle inte kalla folk motherfuckers och ställa ultimatum om att de skulle take it or leave it. Jag skulle göra köket till en dröm för mig själv. Ett kök som jag alltid vill kliva in i, där maten smakar godare och där det är välkomnande och roligt. Jag tror på dekoration när det gäller allt. Varför ska man inte göra saker och sig själv och hela världen så vacker som det bara går? Vi kommer alla dö, varför ska vi ha det torftigt fram till dess? (ch. 22, p.120)”

“If anyone understood loneliness, the moon would.
Drifting back to the predictable cycles of tadpoles and the ballet of fireflies, Kya burrowed deeper into the wordless wilderness. Nature seemed the only stone that would not slip midstream.”
