Cormac McCarthy Quotes

He'd Stepped On Something. He Took A Step Back And Knelt And Parted The Grass With His Hands. It Was An Apple. He Picked It Up And Held It To The Light. Hard And Brown And Shriveled. He Wiped It With The Cloth And Bit Into It. Dry And Almost Tasteless. But An Apple. He Ate It Entire, Seeds And All. He Held The Stem Between His Thumb And Forefinger And Let It Drop. Then He Went Treading Softly Through The Grass. His Feet Still Wrapped In The Remnants Of The Coat And The Shreds Of Tarp And He Sat And Untied Them And Stuffed The Wrappings In His Pocket And Went Down The Rows Barefoot. By The Time He Got To The Bottom Of The Orchard He Had Four More Apples And He Put Them In His Pocket And Came Back.
