Interesting quote from "Dark Sacred Night (A Ballard and Bosch Novel Book 1)"

Hi - I'm reading "Dark Sacred Night (A Ballard and Bosch Novel Book 1)" by Michael Connelly and wanted to share this quote with you.

"I just want what you've got, Renée. Not too many have it." "Not sure I know what you're talking about." "Yes, you do. You know. You have that thing—maybe one in a hundred have it. You've got scars on your face but nobody can see them. It's because you're fierce. You keep pushing. I mean, I'd be dog food right now if it wasn't for what you've got. So let's work together. Let's work cases. Badge, no badge, it doesn't matter. I'm past all of that now anyway. I don't know how much time I've got left, but whatever I have, I want to use it to go out there and find people like Dillon. And one way or another, take them off the board.""

Letters

My Dear Reggie,

In these dark days, men tend to look for little shafts of light that spill from Heaven.  My days are probably darker than yours, and I need, my God I do, all the light I can get. But I am a decent fellow, and I do not want to be mean and selfish about what little brightness is shed upon me from time to time.  So I propose to share with you a tiny flash that has illuminated my sombre life and tell you that God has given me a new Turkish colleague whose card tells me that he is called Mustapha Kunt.

We all feel like that, Reggie, now and then, especially when Spring is upon us, but few of us would care to put it on our cards.  It takes a Turk to do that.

— Sir Archibald Clerk Kerr, the serving Ambassador to the Soviet Union, in a letter to Lord Pombroke dated  6th April 1943
