2 " For once, I can feel everything. Every emotion, every feeling, every sense. I’ve never felt so alive. How ironic. "
3 " And with madness comes the light. "
4 " Dex,” I whispered.“Mmmm?” he grunted.“I hope you never stop feeling alive.”I could have sworn his heart skipped a few beats. He tensed. Then relaxed.“As long as you’re around,” he said softly, “I’ll be alive. "
5 " I was hoping you’d come out and get me." I put my hands on my hips and cocked my head, pondering that revelation. "Well," I said, feeling truthful. "I’m always going to come and get you. "
6 " You’re like a ghost magnet. Why do you think I like having you around?”My mouth dropped momentarily. “Because I’m awesome.”“Oh, well, that too. "
7 " Too many live in the future. If you keep living in the future, in what may be, then the future gets shorter every minute. "
8 " Do you think you’re special, Perry?” he asked seriously.I winced. “A little bit. Maybe more in the Special Olympics kind of way. "
9 " I just hated to think I looked like crap around tall, handsome men. Even if they were gingers. "

It actually was quite appealing, throwing shit around and scaring hapless people out of their homes, just to be an ass. I started looking forward to “meeting” these asshole ghosts. "
14 " I wanted him, I wanted his thoughts and his fears and his feelings but I didn’t want to give away a single ounce of myself. "
15 " Nothing says you’re having a great time like a crow trying to peck your eyes out. He "
16 " He sighed and rolled his eyes. “Unbelievable. I leave you alone for two hours and you fall off a cliff, get attacked by a crow and a snake explodes all over you.” “Pretty "
17 " The negativity and evil thoughts that we experience each day, even without us knowing it, cling to our shells. The sweat purifies us so that we are born again, brand new. "
18 " Both my parents are dead,” he replied bluntly. “But yes, I’m sure the show is making hell even worse for them. "
