“I tell my husband about my childhood and he tells me about his but it isn't the same. We can never know each other as we were then. But I know you. I will see the child you were in the man you will become. So come to me. When you need me, come. When you are lost, when are you low: come. When the birds have stopped singing, or you have stopped hearing, because they never stop singing. They are birds.”
― Claire Kilroy, Soldier Sailor

“Eat it, smoke it, stay up all night for it because the memories of the damage you wreak upon your body when you are young will sustain your spirit when you are old.”
― Claire Kilroy, Soldier Sailor
