Quote context

- Have you ever seen the inside of one of those places? The laughing and the tears and the cruel eyes studying you.

- My mother there?

- But she's harmless. She's as harmless as one of those stuffed birds.

- People always mean well. They cluck their thick tongues and shake their heads and suggest, oh, so very delicately.

- Of course, I've suggested it myself. But I hate to even think about it. She needs me.

- Thank you.

- Thank you, Norman.

- Norman.
