S.E. Hinton Quote

The way Two-Bit, after the police had taken Dally's body away, had griped because he had lost his switchblade when they searched Dallas. ¨Is that all that's bothering you, that switchblade?¨ a red-eyed Steve had snapped at him. ¨No,¨ Two-Bit had said with a quivering sigh, ¨but that's what I'm wishing was all that's bothering me.¨
