And some of those pieces were the damn ugliest things you've ever seen...But some of the pieces were so beautiful they almost hurt my eyes to look at when I was a kid...That's the best you can hope for, Danny.

That in the end, the bright patches might take up more space on your quilt than the dark ones. "
