On the Night Plain Quotes

“I won't be the first man to spend his life barely alive, he told himself. Men did it. It was no great feat. He would live--he'd live a few scant miles from the heart of life, on its chill periphery. That suited him after all.”
― J. Robert Lennon, On the Night Plain

“So he left, and found no passion, and returned to nothing at all.”
― J. Robert Lennon, On the Night Plain
