“...teach me
how to hold a man the way thirst
holds water. Let every river envy

― Ocean Vuong, Night Sky with Exit Wounds

“I’ve
plagiarized my life
to give you the best

“I guess I have a lot of emotion stored up. But it's nothing bad. It's love. It's just love rotting up inside of me . . . That's it . . . I have too much love, I think, and nobody to give it to.”

“People often say that football and boxing are the ways out of the working class and they are your ticket out of that kind of life, if you happen to want to leave it.

― Billy Connolly, Coming Home: My Grand Adventures in a Wee Country
