Quotes by Paul Dore (?)

“I've been mad as hell. So goddamn tired. Mad and tired without knowing it. If you're still following me, if you're still here - you are my people and I've been looking for you my entire life.”
― Paul Dore, The Walking Man

“Amaxophobia: an intense fear of sitting or travelling in any type of moving vehicle. While somewhat rare, phobias of this type are particularly debilitating in today's world. Since the condition impacts the ability to travel by just about any means other than walking, people who suffer with amaxophobia are often confined to their homes, limiting their movements to locations that are within walking distance of the home.”
― Paul Dore, The Walking Man

“The accumulated moments that drifted in and out and over each other all culminated in six words. The words that were most important, the ones that existed because the ideas permeated my verging, the words that came to define me. Be Light! Be smooth! Be open!”
― Paul Dore, The Walking Man
