“Duane Minor’s the problem. He remains the last damnable logjam in Varley’s plan. He’s heard mutterings here and there over the past year, year and a half, from a half dozen sources: Someone’s looking for you. Two people—young guy and a dark-haired girl. Guy’s got that thousand-yard stare on him. The thralls get that look sometimes, but this one’s different.”

“What I am is the Indian who can’t die. I’m the worst dream America ever had.”

“It’s funny. At first, I think you start getting high to dull your emotions, to escape from them. But after a while you realize that the drugs are what are making your life untenable, they are actually what are heightening every emotion you have. It’s making your heartbreak harder, your good times higher. So coming down really does start to feel like rediscovering sanity. And when you rediscover your sanity, it’s only a matter of time before you start to get an inkling of why you wanted to escape it in the first place.”
― Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones & The Six
