“Chigurh shot him in the face. Everything that Wells had ever known or thought or loved drained slowly down the wall behind him. His mother’s face, his First Communion, women he had known. The faces of men as they died on their knees before him. The body of a child dead in a roadside ravine in another country.”
― Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men

“I sent one boy to the gaschamber at Huntsville. One and only one. My arrest and my testimony. I went up there and visited with him two or three times. Three times. The last time was the day of his execution. I didnt have to go but I did. I sure didnt want to. He’d killed a fourteen year old girl and I can tell you right now I never did have no great desire to visit with him let alone go to his execution but I done it.”
― Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men

“It was defeat. It was being beaten. More bitter to him than death. You need to get over that, he said.”
― Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men
