“Not much comes easy in this world, Sonny. If it does, it's best to be suspicious of it. It's probably not worth much.”
Homer H. Hickam, Rocket Boys

“There are two things every woman really wants: one, she wants to know that a man really loves her, and two, that he isn't going to stop.”
Homer H. Hickam

Homer H. Hickam, The Coalwood Way
