Amplified Quote by Tara Kelly
““Do you have a name I asked?" I asked. "Yes." He stared back at me, blinking. "What is it?" "Clover." He looked away and typed something into the computer. His mouth kept twitching, like he was trying to hold in laughter. "Seriously?" He pushed his sleeve up, giving me a view of a blue clover tattooed on his forearm. "I'm half Irish." And half shithead.””

![“We [Raymond and Meursault] stared at each other without blinking, and everything came to a stop there between the sea, the sand, and the sun, and the double silence of the flute and the water. It was then that I realized that you could either shoot or not shoot.” quote by Albert Camus](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/2e8/albert-camus-47_flutes_we-raymond-and-meursault-stared-at-each_74181.jpg)
