• I was having one of these vision, I had the startling revelation that
plane geometry was, in fact, a message from God. ──Sonny
• “If you build your own, you're part of it. I can see that. For me, it's
the same with poetry. Sometimes I have to write some of my
own─it's poor, I know that─ but it allows me to make a connection
with the poets I admire.” ──Miss Riley
• Someday, I was convinced, we would go there. Not just mankind,
but us, the boys on that roof. If only we could learn enough and
were brave enough. ──Sonny
