“You must wonder what makes a man do things like this. Well, I wonder too. And the answer is, I don’t know…but I think that within me, within every human being, there is a certain weakness.

And I have figured out that part of the reason I do the things I do, and cannot seem to conquer that one word - myself - is because…is because…I am a coward.”

I mean like I've been a cabbie for 17 years. Ten years at night. I still don't own my own cab. You know why? Because I don't want to. That must be what I want. You know, to be on the night shift drivin' somebody else's cab. You understand? I mean, you become - you get a job, you become the job. I mean, one guy lives in Brooklyn. One guy lives in Sutton Place. You got a lawyer. Another guy's a doctor. Another guy dies. Another guy gets well. And, you know, people are born. I envy you, your youth.

“I often think back to that one day, one of the last warm autumn days, when we went fishing together. I still wonder how that animal saw the world, how it understood what was happening to him. Being pulled out of the water and staring at us looking down at it. Back then I knew. I didn't have the words, but I knew. What were we if not Alien Gods, cold and uncaring, tearing him out of his world into a realm far past his comprehension, only to feast on his body and soul. Up until the point the hook pulled him out, even after the bite, he believed he understood the world and its rules. He knew what was possible, and what not. He survived endless amounts of moments, eating and fleeing, done it hundreds of times. He believed nothing could surprise him anymore. And when he thinks he has it all figured out, then something like this happens. The world was much, much larger than that river, and these all powerful beings looked down on him, not to judge him, not for a greater reason. I have been waiting since that day. When will I be pulled out of my River?”
