THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN INSOMNIAC DREAMS

That’s the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they’re not much to look at, or even if they’resort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are.

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you’re all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you feel like it. That doesn’t happen much, though.

This fall I think you’re riding for - it’s a special kind of fall, a horrible kind. The man falling isn’t permitted to feel or hear himself hit bottom. He just keeps falling and falling. The whole arrangement’s designed for men who, at some time or other in their lives, were looking for something their own environment couldn’t supply them with. Or they thought their own environment couldn’t supply them with. So they gave up looking. They gave it up before they ever really even got started.
