James Lee Burke Quote

I’ve got a worse scenario, one I can’t get out of my head sometimes, Clete said. I wake up with it in the middle of the night. Some mornings, too. That’s when it really gets bad. What does? The dream. I dream we’re all dead. We fucked up while we were alive and now we’re stacking time in a place where there’re no answers, only questions that drive you crazy. I went to a shrink about it. What did he say? Nothing. I didn’t give him a chance. He was one of the people in the dream. Enjoy the day we get, Streak. Being dead is a pile of shit.
