Alice McDermott Quotes
Dan Lynch Was Chuckling, His Hand Around His Small Glass. 'I Remember Billy Saying That AA Was A Protestant Thing When You Came Right Down To It. Started By A Bunch Of Protestants. He Said He Didn't Like The Chummy Way Some Of Them Were Always Calling Our Lord By His First Name. I Drove Him To The First Meeting And Waited To Take Him Home, 'cause Maeve Didn't Want Him Driving, And When He Came Out He Said You Could Tell Who The Catholics Were Because They'd All Been Bowing Their Heads Every Ten Seconds While The Protestants Bantered On About Jesus, Jesus Jesus.'
(And Sure Enough, Up And Down Our Stretch Of Table, Heads Bobbed At The Name.)
