Yeah,it just hurts sometimes. It usually don't...i can't feel anything below the middle of my back...
Johnny! Are you okay?
I don't want to die now. It ain't long enough. Sixteen years ain't long enough. I wouldn't mind it so much if there wasn't so much stuff i ain't done yet and so many things i ain't seen. It's not fair. You know what? The time we were in windrixville was the only time i've been away from our neighborhood...
I'm pretty bad off, ain't I, pony?
You'll be okay, you gotta be...
I won't be able to walk again. Not even on crutches.Busted my back...
You'll be okay...
You want to know something ponyboy? Im scared stiff. I used to talk about killing myself..

You ain't going to die, and don't get juiced up, because the doc won't let us see you no more if you do.
