>He walked out in the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world. The cold relentless circling of the intestate earth. Darkness implacable. The blind dogs of the sun in their running. The crushing black vacuum of the universe. And somewhere two hunted animals trembling like ground-foxes in their cover. Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it.

The judge knelt down and spat in the sand.
There is two types of men, he says. The broke and the broken.
Before you can be broke you gots to be broken. And every good buck gets broken.
The judge took a piss and started dancing. And he danced until the sun came up.

Popeye gave his cigarette one last pull and tossed it out the window. Well, that's the long and short of it. I should of known said Billy Fourfingers, never guess'd it'd be niggers. Popeye turned up the radio and stretched back and pulled his stetson down over his face and said: shut up and and drive Billy.

Truly, this is no country for oldmen.

You guys are stupid. McCarthy's prose in The Road is simpler than usual, but he goes with sentences like this one, which are perfect both in terms of sound and lyricism. If you stop at the meaning and can't see the sheer beauty of a sentence like this, you need to leave this board and never come back.
