Dialogue

 * Desmond: I wanted out. I wanted my own life, to live my own way. 16 years old. And where was I going? No idea, just away. That's it, that was the plan, not much of one. They never guessed what I was doing, because I didn't know what I was doing. I just walked right out. Someone realized I was gone: they shouted, I started running.
 * William: Desmond! Desmond!
 * Desmond: I just started running and running: all that training was finally worth something. God, it was so dark when I left. And the forest... endless. I didn't dare take the roads.
 * Mother: Desmond? Where are you?
 * Desmond: Mother, calling out. Begging me to stay. But I wouldn't. I followed the hills, down until I hit a stream. I followed that to a river, and from the river to an old access road. Found a clearing after dark, fell asleep beneath the stars. Never had a quieter night. Not before or since. Walking, too scared to hitch a ride. What was I doing? Lost in the badlands for a day, felt like a week. Endless oceans of earth, can't believe a place could look so dead.
 * Desmond: I'm gonna die aren't I? I'm gonna die here.
 * Desmond: Finally met some girls from Illinois, so bubbly, so kind. One day drive to Omaha, another to Chicago. Then somewhere, someone said to me:
 * Man: If you got nothing, go to New York. That way, if you leave with nothing, people don't ask why. And if you leave with something, then you are one lucky son of a bitch.
 * Desmond: So that's where I went. New York City. Into skyscrapers and subways, into filth and folly, into the maddening crowds.
