“If you're honest, you sooner or later have to confront your values. Then you're forced to separate what is right from what is merely legal. This puts you metaphysically on the run. America is full of metaphysical outlaws.”

“Like anybody can tell you, I am not a very nice man. I don't know the word. I have
always admired the villain, the outlaw, the son of a bitch. I don't like the clean-shaven
boy with the necktie and the good job. I like desperate men, men with broken teeth
and broken minds and broken ways. They interest me. They are full of surprises and
explosions. I also like vile women, drunk cursing bitches with loose stockings and
sloppy mascara faces. I'm more interested in perverts than saints. I can relax with
bums because I am a bum. I don't like laws, morals, religions, rules. I don't like to be
shaped by society.”

But Lord, I love running from the law.”

“Interesting how some words that hold basically the same meaning can have different connotations. Take 鈥榦utlaw鈥� and 鈥榗riminal鈥� for instance.
鈥極utlaw鈥� has an almost romantic, nostalgic meaning 鈥� you tend to think of Jesse James or Robin Hood when you think of outlaws. Billy the Kid has been described as both a 鈥榥otorious outlaw鈥� and a 鈥榖eloved folk hero.鈥�
鈥楥riminal鈥� however has a completely different connotation. We think of muggers, burglars, armed robbers etc.
Nobody really wants to have a 鈥榗riminal鈥� in their family tree, but the idea of having 鈥榦utlaw blood鈥� is exciting and glamorous”

“Who knew being married was such fun," he panted, pressing a kiss to her temple and swatting her backside simultaneously.
She pulled back to look at him, one of her rare, reluctant smiles tugging at the corner of her kiss-reddened mouth. "You probably should have done it years ago."
"Nay, lass," he said suddenly feeling very serious. "Then it wouldna have been ye.”

“Criminals/sinners-from the Black Panthers to FBI chiefs and White House Officials-appear on the scene, make their play, and get dragged off stage, but the lawyers remain, administrating and profiting from the action and booking the next show.”

“Shrugging, I glanced at Judd who was watching someone in the corner. When I looked back at Cooper, he was studying the hair in my eyes.
鈥淵ou look tired,鈥� he said, reaching out to brush away the hair.
Cooper鈥檚 hand never reached my face before Judd grabbed his wrist and yanked it away.
In that instant, everything shifted. The men stepped closer, eyeballing each other as the heat of their anger became palatable.
I thought to step between them and calm things before violence broke out. Then, I remembered when I tried to break up a fight between my uncle鈥檚 dogs. If Farah hadn鈥檛 pulled me out of the way, I鈥檇 have been mauled. That day, I learned if predators wanted to fight, you let them while staying as far back as possible.
鈥淚鈥檒l let this go because it鈥檚 your woman,鈥� Cooper muttered, dark eyes still angry. 鈥淚f you pull this shit again and it鈥檚 not your woman, you and I will have a problem.鈥�
Once Cooper walked away, Judd finally relaxed.
I just stared at him as he led me to a booth because a group of old timers were at his table. Sitting next to him, I caressed his face, soothing him. He finally gave me a little grin.
Suddenly, Vaughn appeared and took the spot across from us. 鈥淲hy do you look so pissed off?鈥�
鈥淗e almost went feral on Cooper for trying to touch me.鈥�
Vaughn gave us a lazy grin. 鈥淪o losing his balls makes a man stupid, eh? Good to know. Just another reason to keep mine attached.鈥�
Judd exhaled hard. 鈥淵ou wouldn鈥檛 want anyone touching your woman. One day, you鈥檒l know that despite your love affair with your balls.鈥�
鈥淎 man should love his balls,鈥� Vaughn said, still grinning. 鈥淲hat if I touch her?鈥� he asked, his hand moving slowly towards my face.
鈥淚鈥檒l stab you in the fucking eye.鈥�
Grinning, Vaughn put down his hand. 鈥淵ou鈥檙e pretty damn sexy when you go drama queen, O鈥橩eefe.鈥�
鈥淗e is, isn鈥檛 he?鈥� I said, sliding closer to Judd. 鈥淚 wish we were naked right now.鈥�
Both men frowned at me, but I only smiled and Judd adjusted in the booth as his jeans grew too tight. 鈥淪top,鈥� he warned.
鈥淚鈥檓 not afraid of you.鈥�
鈥淚 could make a liar of you.鈥�
鈥淵ou won鈥檛 though because you wish you were inside me.鈥�
Judd exhaled hard like a pissed bull and adjusted in the booth again.
I just laughed and rested my head against his shoulder. 鈥淚 so own you.鈥�
Vaughn nodded. 鈥淗e鈥檚 a keeper. I remember how poetic he was when I asked him if he could imagine himself as an old man. He turned to me and grunted. Real profound grunt too. Oh, and once I asked if he ever imagined himself as a father. I kid you not, he burped. The man is fucking Shakespeare.”

“She looked at her right hand, where the index finger was cut to a stump. Some said she lost it in an accident, when she was playing soldier with a live grenade. Others said she was taught a lesson by the law, and they took her trigger finger to make her keep on learning. Those were the lessons the Coilhunter liked. Why, he was quite the teacher himself.”

“I have no roots anywhere else. I have no 'at home' but here. And I feel doomed. Like I'm riding to Hell on a fast horse. I'm not afraid of dying, but I don't want to die alone. I don't want some no one finding me finished off and asking a sheriff, 'Who's that ?”

“Are you even aware of hot hot and cold you are? How you seduce and then withdraw, tantalize and then retreat? Even with men you're like that. You're a mystery to people, you keep us off-balance and guessing. We have to presume what you're thinking or feeling. And instead of being frustrated we find ourselves fascinated, and we make things up about you out of our own hopes and needs and all the dangerous things we're afraid to do.”

“The essence of "new" is, of course, the modern version of Roman coliseum shows and gladiator combats. American civilization, for certain explicit biblical reasons, apparently requires that its leaders, its political heroes be publicly sacrificed.”

“I loved this man and everything-
I was about to write 鈥渁nd everything about him鈥�, but I鈥檝e stopped myself this time. In the aftermath of meeting waylon, I might well have said those words. I was blissed out, starry eyed in love. I realized that this would not be a conventional relationship because he was not a conventional man. I knew I was in for a wild ride. There could be no doubt that Waylon was a wild man.”

Trey turned his attention from the horses. "That's none of your affair. If I told you the truth of the matter, it wouldn't make any difference. It would only be my word against theirs, and they won't be doing any more talking.”
