"...And I thought about books.  And for the first time I realized that a man was behind each one of the boods.  A man had to think them up.  A man had to take a long time to put them down on paper.  And I'd never even thought that thought before."

6. Fugitive

"But her friends turned in an alarm earlier, that I let ride.  One way or the other, you'd have got it.  It was pretty silly, quoting poetry around free and easy like that.  It was the act of a silly damn snob."
