But you haven't never loved god nor even nair person. you hard and tough as cowhide. but just the same i knows you. this afternoon you going to roam all over the place without never being satisfied. you going to traipse all around like you haves to find something lost. you going to work yourself up with excitement. your heart going to beat hard enough to kill you because you don't love and don't have peace. and then some day you going to bust loose and be ruined.

But you haven't never loved god nor even nair person. you hard and tough as cowhide. but just the same i knows you. this afternoon you going to roam all over the place without never being satisfied. you going to traipse all around like you haves to find something lost. you going to work yourself up with excitement. your heart going to beat hard enough to kill you because you don't love and don't have peace. and then some day you going to bust loose and be ruined.

More From Carson McCullers

A guy's calling to say he's failing algebra ii. just as a point of practice, i say, kill yourself. a woman calls and says her kids won't behave. without missing a beat, i tell her, kill yourself. a man calls to say his car won't start. kill yourself. a woman calls to ask what time the late movie starts. kill yourself. she asks, "isn't this 555-1327? is this the moorehouse cineplex? i say, kill yourself. kill yourself. kill yourself.
Kids Men Practice
We can work on inner peace and world peace at the same time. on one hand, people have found inner peace by losing themselves in a cause larger than themselves, like the cause of world peace, because finding inner peace means coming from the self-centered life into the life centered in the good of the whole. on the other hand, one of the ways of working for world peace is to work for more inner peace, because world peace will never be stable until enough of us find inner peace to stabilize it.
Peace Mean Self
Men are four; he who knows and knows not that he knows. he is asleep; wake him. he who knows not and knows not that he knows not. he is a fool; shun him. he who knows not and knows that he knows not. he is a child; teach him. he who knows and knows that he knows. he is a king; follow him. the heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.
Kings Children Night
Perhaps peace is not, after all, something you work for, or 'fight for.' it is indeed 'fighting for peace' that starts all the wars. what, after all, are the pretexts of all these cold war crises, but 'fighting for peace?' peace is something you have or do not have. if you are yourself at peace, then there is at least some peace in the world. then share your peace with everyone, and everyone will be at peace.

You can't kill love. you can't even kill it with hate. you can kill in-love, and loving, and even loveliness. you can kill them all, or numb them into dense, leaden regret, but you can't kill love itself. love is the passionate search for a truth other than your own; and once you feel it, honestly and completely, love is forever. every act of love, every moment of the heart reaching out, is a part of the universal good: it's a part of god, or what we call god, and it can never die.
Regret Hate Love You
No sovereign, no court, no personal loyalty, no aristocracy, no church, no clergy, no army, no diplomatic service, no country gentlemen, no palaces, no castles, nor manors, nor old country-houses, nor parsonages, nor thatched cottages nor ivied ruins no cathedrals, nor abbeys, nor little norman churches no great universities nor public schools -- no oxford, nor eton, nor harrow no literature, no novels, no museums, no pictures, no political society, no sporting class -- no epsom nor ascot some such list as that might be drawn up of the absent things in american life.

For all his wisdom, he did not know that love cannot be tested. honesty can be tested and loyalty. but there is not test for love. love goes on forever, once it begins, even if we come to hate the one we love. love goes on forever because love is born in the part of us that does not die.
Loyalty Honesty Hate
One choice one choice, decided your friends. one choice, defines your beliefs. one choice, determines your loyalties - forever. once choice can transform you

How could you let him do this? (shahara) i know you’re not going to pin this on me, shay. i didn’t raise the embryo. you did. it’s what you get for teaching him things like honor, love, courage, and loyalty. if you’d left him a scared little snot-nose, he’d still be living in your basement. (vik)
Loyalty Teaching Honor
Loyal companions are an unequaled grace, stanching fear before it bleeds you numb, a reliable antidote for creeping despair.
