James Anderson > James's Quotes

“A well-adjusted person wouldn't talk much. There's not a lot to be said about most of life. Most days, weeks, years, lives, nothing happens... and still we carry on chattering at each other.”
― James Ferron Anderson, TERMINAL CITY

“Where has Arnold been?’ I said. ‘... the Westwoods get in the papers.’
‘Patting the orphans.’
‘Getting homes for the homeless.’
‘Legs for the legless.’ She was laughing as she said it.
‘Blind dogs,’ I said. ‘Dogs for the blind, that is.’
‘Patting blind dogs.’ We both laughed and drank. ‘Getting legs for them.’
‘Homes for legless, blind orphan dogs.’ Maybe we were both a little drunk, on bourbon or on the past.”
― James Ferron Anderson, TERMINAL CITY
