Dave Eggers Quotes

I admire his rhyming scheme, but it would be much better if he has a lisp -- "the abyth." (Jonathan Ames, Middle-American Gothic)

What do I mean when I say I love Gale? I don't know. I did kiss him last night, in a moment when my emotions were running so high. But I'm sure he doesn't remember it. Does he? I hope not.
