Me. I was just another one of the lost back where I belonged -- Back in L.A -- I could have kissed the ground -- I resisted the impulse. Besides, it was drink I craved, and I had to be back in my kind of town -- Hollywood. Everyone thinks it's the playground of the stars, but they pushed on years ago. Now it's my kind of place -- dangerous -- with pimps, whores without class, rip-off artists, and other hard-core turf shattered types entertaining fantasies too desparate to mention -- just naked reality twenty-four hours a day. I've always had a love affair with the streets."

They are the real people of this world and I was proud to be in their company."

• (Charles Serking) "Cass had that special look that got to me. Like she'd been blown away by the winds of eternity and was swimming back against the current. There was something mysterious going on and I plunged right in. I was in over my head, my mind kept telling me. I had to come up for some air. But Cass was like fluid fire and her flesh had already sucked me in. I had to get away from her before I got burned. But that was like trying to climbe out of a whirlpool --"

• (Charles Serking) "Not many have style. Not many can keep style. I have seen dogs with more style than men; though not many dogs have style. Cats have it in abundance."
