Suddenly Bruno felt very unhappy. He could never tell his mother. ("Hey, Ma, I murdered this man‘s wife and then he killedFather. It was my idea, too. Aren‘t I clever? We‘re both free now!)No, he could never tell anyone, except Guy. - P12
There was one way to getbetter. ‘I need a drink,‘ he said. - P12
I phoned your mother for your address, but she didn‘t give it to me. Look, Guy, don‘t worry. I‘m going to be very careful. Write to me soon. ㅡYour friend, Charley Bruno
Then Guy knew. Bruno did it, Bruno did it; he could not stopthinking those words, Bruno did it. - P19
He felt so powerful - he tookaway life, like God! He wanted to tell everyone about the murder, about his one great act. Most people, ordinary, common people, never had one great thing in their lives. - P20
Guy looked into Bruno‘s eyes. They were the eyes of a mad child. Guy felt helpless, he could do nothing. - P23
The blue light burned his eyes. - P30
It was covered inscratches, and so were his hands. His body was heavy and tired. Hethought he could never sleep enough in his life. - P31
And Guy knew that he hated Bruno, but liked him at the sametime. - P41
He was the loneliest man in the world. Where was his friend, hisbrother? - P52
