Bother Quotes
It was tough for me sitting next to him and hearing (the fans), so, I can imagine what it was like for him. It's like somebody two feet tall just punching you and punching you, and you can't hit them back. It's so frustrating, but Al never let it bother him. Some days were better than others, but he never complained about it. It was just the price of fame.

Aid Quotes
Adele Mirshak has suggested the developer who built the subdivision should be responsible, and my question is, why not? It seems the right group to ask for financial aid to solve the problem.

Because of the loss of their habitat, the coyotes are hungry, and they're displaced, and they're hunting. The sad fact of the matter is, they're probably going to have to be eliminated.

Bright Quotes
The valley lay like a ribbon thrown into the midst of the encompassing hills.

Bones Quotes
It was a very tall man, if, indeed, it might be called a man, for the gaunt bones were protruding through the corroding flesh, and the features were of a leaden hue.
