“The more we follow the path of our own curiosity, the more we will arrive at our real rooted intuition. We will find it blooming below an old chestnut. Sunning itself on a hot stone. Poking its green head up from black river silt. ‘Whatever you open for yourself, you will open.’” (131-132).

I love this line: "If I slice it up and stitch it back together, you might not understand what I've been trying to say all my life: but any story is a lie cunningly told to hide the real world from the poor bastards who live in it. I can't. I can't tell you that lie. That's dad's game, and I've been sick of playing it since I was four."

This book is perfection.
