A Clean, Well-Lighted Place Quotes

"I am one of those who like to stay late at the café," the older waiter said. "With all those who do not want to go to bed. With all those who need a light for the night."
- old waiter

He disliked bars and bodegas. A clean, well-lighted café was a very different thing. Now, without thinking further, he would go home to his room. He would lie in the bed and finally, with daylight, he would go to sleep.
- narrator taliking about the old waiter

"He was in despair."
"What about?"
"Nothing."
"How do you know it was nothing?"
"He has plenty of money."
- conversation between the waters at the café
