Bart Yates Quotes
With Tommy, Gift-giving Is An Art Form. Whatever He Bestows On You Is More Likely Than Not Going To Be Something Absurd And Cheap And Tacky, But The Way He Offers It Always Makes You Feel As If You Were Receiving An Oblation. I Don't Know How He Does It. It's A Bizarre Kind Of Magic; He Somehow Makes You Believe That The Useless Thing In His Outstretched Hands Is Actually A Chunk Of His Heart That He's Torn Out, Just For You. He Holds It Up For Your Inspection, And It Glows Between His Fingers Like A Candle In A Cave. And As If That Weren't Enough, He Makes It Absolutely Clear That He Doesn't Want Anything In Return, Not Even Your Gratitude, So All You Can Do Is Stand There With A Stupefied Look On Your Face And Humbly Accept What He's Vouchsafing You.
