Matt De La Pena Quotes

As His Mind Continues To Drift Away From His Body, He Had One Final Realization. The World Itself Was Alive, Too. It Swirled Around You And Sped Past Your Eyes And Ears, So Fast You Could Never See It, But Slow At The Same Time, Like A Tree Growing Taller In A Park. And All The Sounds You Hears-the Wind Whipping Past Your Ears And The Ocean's Whispering And The Tickle Of The Whitecaps Against Your Boat-that Was Earth's Blood Pumping Through Imperceptible Veins, And Some Of Those Veins Were Nothing More Than People Like Shy Or Carmen, Or Addie.
