Pete Hautman Quote
Do You know what ghosts are, Stuey? I’ll tell you. They’re secrets haunting the memories of the living. So long as we carry their secrets, they refuse to leave. They wait. Wait for what? To be forgotten. My father has been gone for sixty years, but — he tapped the side of his head — he’s still here. He never left.
