More From Philip Roth

I'd seen sage bleed. i'd made sage bleed. not that it hurt him any; he healed so quickly...in smaller doses it has incredible healing powers. ben's voice rang out in my head. i remembered he said that earlier, about...the elixir of life.the crackpot, completely bogus, absolutely insane elixir of life.did it actually exist? had sage had some? enough to keep him alive, young, and speed-healing for the last five hundred years?and if so, had he used that time to find one woman, again and again in different incarnations, to love her...or destroy her?
Love Hurt Healing
When i look back on my childhood i wonder how i survived at all. it was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable irish catholic childhood.

Strangely enough, for many many years i didn't talk about my childhood and then when i did i got a ton of mail - literally within a year i got a couple of thousand letters from people who'd had a worse childhood, a similar childhood, a less-bad childhood, and the question that was most often posed to me in those letters was: how did you get past the trauma of being raised by a violent alcoholic?

Pleased to meet you." sage said, offering his hand. "the pleasure is all mine," rayna purred. "unless ofcourse, it's all clea's which is even better." sage smiled and might have even blushed a bit, which was highly entertaining.
Offering Hands Sage
Thanks for looking out for her, sage. you're okay. for a human." i almost laughed. "thanks." "you can say it too, you know." i walked over to latte and paused. "say what?" "that i'm okay...for a vampire," he explained. i shook my head, still smiling. "you'll have a hard time getting any alchemist to admit that. but i can say you're okay for an irreverent party boy with occasional moments of brilliance." "brilliant? you think i'm brilliant?" he threw his hands skyward. "you hear that, world? sage says i'm brilliant.
