"[regarding John] I see a beautiful little boy whose mother says "goodbye". I see the same little boy, blaming himself for his father's mistakes. Telling himself that everything is his fault. I see this little boy believing that the world is a dangerous place, and that there's nobody you can depend on to protect you. So you grow up trying to pretend that ordinary little things don't scare the hell out of you, but they do. I see... my old friend, who used to skip classes and wander off with me to the old graveyard, looking back at me, still putting himself and me through hell. And I see a frightened man who doesn't realize how beautiful he is!"
