“"I know" Helena said and this is another example of why behave this way? Things just poured out of her mouth lately, like vomit, and sometimes it actually was.”

“I didn't even know why I liked her. She was just there. I was used to her.”
Part I, Ch.9 - p.77

“Sometimes there just isn't enough vomit in the world.”
2005
Context: I think the government should be spying on all Arabs, engaging in torture as a televised spectator sport, dropping daisy cutters wantonly throughout the Middle East and sending liberals to Guantanamo.
But if we must engage in a national debate on half-measures: After 9-11, any president who was not spying on people calling phone numbers associated with terrorists should be impeached for being an inept commander in chief.
With a huge gaping hole in lower Manhattan, I'm not sure why we have to keep reminding people, but we are at war. (Perhaps it's because of the media blackout on images of the 9-11 attack. We're not allowed to see those because seeing planes plowing into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon might make us feel angry and jingoistic.)
Among the things that war entails are: killing people (sometimes innocent), destroying buildings (sometimes innocent) and spying on people (sometimes innocent).
That is why war is a bad thing. But once a war starts, it is going to be finished one way or another, and I have a preference for it coming out one way rather than the other.
“Sometimes the things that come out of my mouth are mortifying.”
As quoted in "Shopping With: Natasha Lyonne; Rough, Tough, But on a Road To Ladylike" by Nancy Hass, in The New York Times (9 July 2000) http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0DE6DE1738F93AA35754C0A9669C8B63&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=print
“I am stuffing your mouth with your
promises and watching
you vomit them out upon my face.”
