  • Quote

It is the refurbishing of the soul.

This time it was right, it would work, and no one would have to get nailed to anything.

    Ay," he said aloud. There is no translation for this word and perhaps it is just a noise such as a man might make, involuntarily, feeling the nail go through his hands and into the wood.
