Smoking Poppy Quotes

“I’ve been a selfish child pretending to be a man. I allowed fatherhood to become a creeping cataract, preventing me from seeing the changing needs of those around me. But I didn’t know then what I know now. That you have to let them pluck from your heart with bruising fingers great, sparkling, golden resinous chunks of love, and never ask under what moon they smoke it or where they spill it.”
― Graham Joyce, Smoking Poppy
