"It's OK," I said, reaching into my pocket for a lighter.
"No Pudge, it's not," he said throwing down his cigarette and standing up, suddenly pissed. "Goddamn it! God, how did this happen? How could she be so stupid! She just never thought anything through. So goddamned impulsive. Christ. It is not OK. I can't believe she was so stupid!"
"We should've stopped her," I said.
He reached into the stall to turn off the dribbling shower and then pounded an open palm against the tile wall. "Yeah, I know we should have stopped her, damn it. I am shit sure keenly aware that we should have stopped her. But we shouldn't have had to. You had to watch her like a three-year-old. You do one thing wrong and then she just dies. Christ! I'm losing it. I'm going on a walk."
...
"Yeah. Yeah. I might. You never know. It's just. It's like. POOF. And you're gone"

"It was the central moment of Alaska's life, when she cried and told me she messed everything up. I knew what she meant now. And when she said she failed everyone, I knew whom she meant. It was the everything and everyone of her life.... there comes a time that we realise that our parents cannot save themselves or save us, that everyone who wades through time eventually gets dragged out to sea by the undertow - that in short, we are all going. So she became impulsive, scared by her inaction into perpetual action."
