“The line of a man’s neck can change your life. The
way he digs in his pockets for change can make your heart groan and
hands grow cold. How he touches your elbow or the button that is not
closed on the cuff of his shirt are demons he’s loosed without ever
knowing it. They own us immediately. He was a thoroughly compelling man.
I wanted to rise to the occasion of his presence in my life and become
something more than I’d previously thought myself capable of.”
(Jonathan Carroll: A Child Across the Sky)
