“His body was perfect. His parents were

“Look back at history,” he said, after a minute or two. “Most
great and remarkable men weren't tame or politically correct.
They were raving loonies. They acted out. Heroes are badasses,

him.
“You think Jesus would throw a book at someone?” I asked,

straight and focused his eyes on me.
“I'm not Jesus,” he said simply.
No kidding.”
