- It’s easy when you have no choice.
- Blue is said to be everyone’s favorite color, but who would want blue trees?
- Our parents are gone, but why do they wander so casually through our dreams?
- Wine the divine.
- Poetry is splendid, but pottery is more useful.
- Sorrow never dies. It sleeps, and sleeps lightly, awakened easily by a song, a face, a flower’s scent.
- Politics is solely about money—who has it, who wants it, who gets it.
- Beauty is only skin-deep, but good-looking intestines would be ridiculous.
- Sad street scene: Christmas trees thrown in the gutter. So ungrateful after all the joy they gave.
- A light bulb blowing out is traumatic, a reminder of all the dark out there.
- Of course. Tom Brady is Jack Kennedy—handsome, rich, Irish, New Englander. Why did it take so long to realize that?
- Warm is better than cold. Warm is the temperature of life. Cold is the other.
