“Father Tim told him the other day that everybody needed three things: Somebody to love - he had Grace and her mama an’ daddy an’ Sister Louise an’ all manner of people who come in th’ bookstore. Somethin’ to do - look at the job he had, livin’ up here like he was ol’ Croesus hisself. An’ somethin’ to look forward to - as for that part, he had solved it by always, always keepin’ a good book underneath his candy jar.”
