Quotes

"We had a town child molester, his name was Jean Baptiste... He liked teenage boys... I was a teenage boy--he didn't like me, I felt a little bad."

"Child molesters are very tenacious people. They love molesting childs, it's crazy! It's like their favorite thing! When you consider the risk of being a child molester... there is no worse life available to a human than being a caught child molester. And yet they still do it! You can only really surmise that it must be really good. I mean, form their point of view! It must be amazing for them to risk so much!"
