Ankles Quote by Rachel Caine
“Claire was struggling through last summer’s diary volume when Myrnin popped in through the portal, wearing a big floppy black hat and a kind of crazy/stylish pimp coat that covered him from neck to ankles, black leather gloves, and a black and silver walking stick with a dragon’s head on it. And, on his lapel was a button that said, If you can read this, thank a teacher.”

![“Ive always been a big defender of [sippin] syrup. Even when [Pimp C] passed, when Screw passed, when Moe passed, I kinda made excuses. I said it was other things that killed them, just their whole lifestyle. Thats part of being a drug addict. You make excuses and try to validate what youre doing…” quote by Paul Wall](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ead/paul-wall-3293_addict_ive-always-been-a-big-defender-of-sippin_2912909.jpg)
