1 " I was going into shock. The pain wasn’t getting any better, and I thought that I would probably black out before I found out how this was going to end. Just as well—I was never particularly good at finishing things. "

― Joe Schreiber , Red Harvest (Star Wars)

4 " Human beings are like the screwed-up children of alcoholic parents in that way, picking up the pieces afterward and trying to make up reasons why.

― Joe Schreiber , Death Troopers (Star Wars)

8 " I can't dance, remember?" I whispered.
"It's just a tango. It is like sex, except with clothes on." Then, squeezing me closer: "Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot, you do not know how to do that either. "

― Joe Schreiber , Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick (Perry & Gobi, #1)

9 " When life wants to get our attention it doesn't bother with half measures. "

― Joe Schreiber , Red Harvest (Star Wars)

"

18 " I’m not helping you kill anybody else. It’s just not happening. I’m done.”“What makes you think you have a choice?”“You know why? I’ll tell you. Because we were just kissing in the street, and deep down, I don’t believe you could actually blow up my house or kill my sister. I just don’t, and she’s probably not even in the house anymore anyway, so if you want to go in there and shoot somebody, fine, but you’re on your own.”Gobi paused, seeming to consider all of this. “What is it that you want to hear from me, Perry? Do you want me to tell you that these are bad people that I am killing tonight? Because they are. They are very bad people. They deserve to die, each and every one of them.”“Nobody deserves to die.”“Oh, really?”“Okay, I mean, maybe people like Hitler and Pol Pot . . . dictators, tyrants, African warlords who starve their people into submission . . . but that guy at the bar wasn’t an evil man.”“How do you know? Because he had drinks with Hemingway?”“I just know. "

― Joe Schreiber , Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick (Perry & Gobi, #1)

“Why?”
“Because that is what he does. "

― Joe Schreiber , Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick (Perry & Gobi, #1)
