How little we understand of the gifts we have been given or the shape of the path we took to reach our salvation.
Anyway, they took her body to McBurney's Funeral Home in Motley. They'll be planting her tomorrow.
She took refuge on the firm ground of fiction, through which indeed there curled the blue river of truth.

I took the volume to a table, opened its soft, ivory pages... and fell into it as into a pool during dry season.

Instead of a vow of silence, I took a vow of invisibility. At that time you were looking for someone to love, and that’s why you couldn’t see me.

Whenever he saw a dollar in another man's hands he took it as a personal grudge, if he couldn't take it any other way.
I saw a ghost once, about 20 years ago. It took the form of someone coming out of a sleeping body and sitting at the foot of the bed.
