Clarity Quote by David Ellis
““A clearheaded man might think that his body is telling him something. But clarity of thought is not something with which I have a lot of experience lately. I'm trying. Lord knows, I'm trying, because I need to get ahead of my murderous client, and I'm miles behind. I feel like I'm running in place. I feel like I woke up in a strange place, unsure of how I got there and not sure how to find my way back.””
