“It's true what they say, you know: if you talk to God, you're religious; but if you hear from God, yor're schizophrenic.”
Tim Downs, Wonders Never Cease

“Pete had always been a compulsive organizer, but the man himself was so sociable and friendly that he could seem absentminded at times. Nick was the diametric opposite; his mind was completely organized, but his physical environment was always in chaos.”
Tim Downs, Nick of Time
