“They were no longer young men with all of it before them. Jack had filled out through the shoulders and hams, Ennis stayed lean as a clothes-pole, stepped around in worn boots, jeans and shirts summer and winter, added a canvas coat in cold weather. A benign growth appeared on his eyelid and gave it a drooping appearance, a broken nose healed crooked.”
~From the short story “Brokeback Mountain” by Annie Proulx
