Okeydokey, here are some kwotes (my computer won't let me type the letter after p :(
By the way these are all from the new edition.
"I used to do everything in my power to preserve this sense of isolation." page 144
"It's me who runs this house, not your mother. It's me, see! And you just put that in your pipe and smoke it, my boy!" page 146
"'You don't bloody well know what you're talking about!' Jack snapped." page 147
"You know, Davy, you've made this place look real nice... absent minded professor, don't you?" page 149
"I spoke firmly, to ride myself over a little twinge of guilt... my isolation might yet be restored."
page 149
"'I can give you money," I said... 'Keep you going until you find some work." page 151
"'Thanks Nipper,' he said, but he kept rubbing at his toes and he didn't look at me." page 152
"I did not know whether I did it out of generosity... free from invasion." page 152
"I, who had to a great degree betrayed... who had a second string to his bow." page 159
"That one terrible choking cry... force that urged him on." page 167
"I was trying to hammer out all the past... sprawled there on the faded wet carpet." page 171

Zak and Shelley
