1 " Just tell her the B side's the sad one, and that the sad ones are the truth. "
― Rob Rufus , The Vinyl Underground
2 " You've gotta figure out the world around you if you ever want to figure out your place in it, man. "
3 " I loved libraries, in general—they were the one place so many conflicting ideas could stand being next to each other. I, too, was a mixed bag of interests, not married to any single theme or style. "
4 " People say it’s unhealthy to live in the past. But what choice do I have when it defines my every moment? It’s with me when I hurt, when I struggle for breath. It’s written on my skin, in scars and tattoos. It’s in the ’68 Mustang that’s broken down in my driveway. It’s in everything I do. It’s all around me, always. But fuck it, that’s all right. I don’t mind the past too much. After all, it had one hell of a soundtrack. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My wonderful agent and dreamweaver, Shannon Hassan, for her unwavering belief in a cynical, foulmouthed first-time author like me. "
