By Charles Caruso
- Live and yearn.
- Even the brightest gold tarnishes.
- Your politics reveal your whole view of life.
- Is extra virgin anything like slightly pregnant?
- A writer is at his best while writing. The rest of the time he’s just as dumb as everyone else.
- As silent as snow on a Sunday morning.
- Christmas lights are man’s defiance of death.
- Telephones: We touch numbers on a plastic object and talk to a friend we haven’t seen in 30 years.
- When a bar folds, friends scatter.
- Before five, the sounds in the street are the night ending.After five, they’re the day beginning.
- An apartment is not a home. A house is a home.
- A girl who would die before wearing patched jeans gleefully tears them to shreds to be in fashion.
