Dark Quotes
-
That's how I do this life sometimes by making the ordinary just like magic and just like a card trick and just like a mirror and just like disappearing.

I'm traveling heavy with illusions.

That's the only way you can find some meaning in an otherwise very dark and gloomy life.

It is upsetting to many parents that their teen-agers introduce them to their friends as encyclopedia salesmen who are just passing through ... if they introduce them at all.
