Jerry Spinelli Quotes
He Stared At Me. "She Liked You, Boy." The Intensity Of His Voice And Eyes Made Me Blink.
"Yes," I Said.
"She Did It For You, You Know."
"What?"
"Gave Up Her Self, For A While There. She Loved You That Much. What An Incredibly Lucky Kid You Were."
I Could Not Look At Him. "I Know."
He Shook His Head With A Wistful Sadness. "No, You Don't. You Can't Know Yet. Maybe Someday ... "
I Knew He Was Tempted To Say More. Probably To Tell Me How Stupid I Was, How Cowardly, That I Blew The Best
chance I Would Ever Have. But His Smile Returned, And His Eyes Were Tender Again, And Nothing Harsher
than Cherry Smoke Came Out Of His Mouth.
