Low Key: Even better with a death sentence. Bang. Worst has already happened. You get a few days to let it sink in, and then you're riding the cart on the way to do your dance on nothing. This country went to hell when they stopped hanging folks. No gallows dirt, no gallows deals.

Shadow: No gallows humor.

Low Key: Yeah. Funniest fucking shit in the world.

Mr. World: Have we met?

Wednesday: Do not talk to him. Do not say a word. Do not tell him anything.

Mr. World: You don't have to. I already know you.

Shadow: No you don't.

Mr. World: You're a person. I know people, everything about all of them. You have a name: Shadow Moon. You have a blood type and a recurring nightmare: B-positive and an orchard of bones. You prefer swiss to cheddar and can't abide the tines of two forks touching. And this is the face you make when you masturbate. The same as your mother, who had 86 sexual partners throughout her life. Everything that happens is recorded and stored and recalled in the Book of Life.

Shadow: Did you always believe?

Jesus: Did I always believe? I am belief, Shadow. I don't know how not to believe.

Jesus: Even if you don't believe, you cannot travel in any other way then the road your senses show you. And you must walk that road to the end.
