Quotes About Scar

There's a certain clearheadedness now, there's a kind of lonely clarity--

I have walked by stalls in the market-place where books, dog-eared and faded from their purple, have burst with a white hosanna. I have seen people crowned with a double crown, holding in either hand the crook and flail, the power and the glory.
