New York Day Women--"As the cab races away from the park, it occurs to me that perhaps one day I would chase an old woman down a street by mistake and that old woman would be comebody else's mother, who I would have mistaken for mine."...."Day women come out when nobody expects them." --from KRIK? KRAK!
Night Women--"Should my son wake up, I have prepared my fabrication. One day, he will grow too old to be told that a wandering man is a mirage and that naked flesh is a dream. I will tell him that his father has come, that an angel brought him back from Heaven for a while." --from KRIK? KRAK!

The Invisible Man--"'Poor Chap,' thought Detective Wayne as he observed the dead man lying on the concrete in front of him. 'He looks like he was a lonesome man.'....The autopsy wouldn't reveal anything, Wayne knew that. The homeless man had died of misery and grief....murdered by everyone who heard him and, like Mrs Goldstein, just walked away."
