"The phone rang. Softly, in actuality, yet it seemed loud and ominous, as phones do at night in dark hotel rooms." - Douglas Adams "I am thankful once again to strip off an old life, as I so often have during these years. I look back upon a soldier, a murderer, a man almost murdered, a man resurrected, a prisoner, a wanderer." - Douglas Adams "...a private hell was something you lived with alone, even when someone else's casual questions nudged old, raw wounds within yourself." - Douglas Adams
