Wally Lamb Quotes

The Non-jocks, The Readers, The Gay Kids, The Ones Starting To Stew About Social Injustice: For These Kids, "letting Your Freak Flag Fly" Is Both Self Discovery And Self Defense. You Cry For This Bunch At The Mandatory Pep Assemblies. Huddled Together, Miserably, In The Upper Reaches Of The Bleachers, Wearing Their Oversized Raincoats And Their Secondhand Salvation Army Clothes, They Stare Down At The School-sanctioned Celebration Of The A List Students.

The Freaks Know Where There's Refuge: I The Library, The Theater Program, Art Class, Creative Writing.
