  1. Boy’s Life 6 By Robert McCammon

  2. Quotations • “ I had always wondered what Reverend Lovoy meant when he talked about ‘grace.’ I understood it now. It was being able to give up something that it broke your heart to lose, and be happy about it.” •  “ All life isn’t hearts and flowers. I wish it was, God knows I do. But life is just as much pain and mess as it is joy and order. Probably a lot more mess than order too. I guess when you make yourself realize that, you start growing up. “

  3. Quotations •  “ And then that book came out, with the boy’s name on it, and he saw that cover and knew he had taken his child and he had dressed that beautiful child up like a prostitute and now only people who craved ugliness wanted her. They wanted to wallow in her, and use her and throw her away because she was only one of a hundred thousand and she was crippled. And that boy….that boy had done it to her. That evil, greedy boy.” •  “Elders? But we’re the same age.”  

  4. Quotations • “Jesus Christ was as perfect as a human bein’ can be, yet he got mad and fought and wept and had days of feelin’ like he couldn’t go on another step. Like when the lepers and the sick folks almost trampled him down, all of ‘embeggin’ for miracles and doggin’ him till he was about miracled out. What I’m sayin’, Mr. Mackenson, is that even Jesus Christ needed help sometimes, and he wasn’t too proud to ask for it.”
