We're not going to make it," I said.The words caught in my throat, choking me. What was it Leslie had said to me when we were discussing Shannon's and Antoinetta's disappearance? 'You're beginning to sound like one of the characters in your books, Adam.' She'd been right. If this were a novel my heroes would have arrived just in the nick of time and saved the day. But real life didn't work like that. Real life had no happy endings. Despite our best efforts, despite my love for Tara [his wife] and my determination to protect her, and after everything we'd been through at the LeHorn house, fate conspired against us. We were still nine or ten miles from home, and night was almost upon us. By the time we got there it would already be too late. I fought back tears. I had the urge just to lie down in the middle of the road and let the next car run over me.

Your true beliefs are known in agony

Sometimes the rope seems the only option when at the bottom of the pit. Climb it to safety.

You can truly live if you can see yourself centuries after you have died. Just imagine it. What will people remember about you, how will your grave look like? How will your children live, etc.

Life is so sweet. A man will even kiss the a** of his enemy to have his head spared

Life becomes unbearable when, instead of living it, you stop to think about it.

Some people start to live when they die

Don't look for meaning in life. It was meant to be lived not understood

Life is a war. Guerrilla warfare, the strategy

Nature has endowed us with some measure of insanity to cope with the realities of daily life

What's the use of life without health? It's like living dead

If you still have fear, you love life

Life is existence with meaning

The hardest thing in life is a man to be honest with himself

There are two important days in your life. The day you discovered you were alive and the day you forgot about it

Somethings are simply better left the way they are.

Life is like water in a glass. Drop by drop the glass empties.

Life is a stampede to get to the top
