fun interesting pressure
I can become someone else, not out of pressure and desperation, but merely because a new life sounds fun or interesting or joyful.
past ice-cream ideas
Really, just looking around, you feel a twinge of pity for the poor souls who succeeded in getting past the Pearly Gates. One can't help but picture the lackluster VIP lounge in Heaven, a kind of nonalcoholic ice-cream social starring Harriet Beecher Stowe and Mahatma Gandhi. Hardly anyone's idea of a "with-it" social register.
wise men talking
Women are already born so far ahead ability-wise. The day men can give birth, that's when we can start talking about equal rights.
writing thoughtful dust
Alternating the thoughtful task of writing with the mindless work of laundry or dish washing will give you the breaks you need for new ideas and insights to occur. If you don't know what comes next in the story... clean your toilet. Change the bed sheets. For Christ sakes, dust the computer. A better idea will come.
fate night escaping
There's no escaping fate, it just keeps going. Day and night, the future just keeps coming at you.
beautiful brandy feels
You can't be beautiful," Brandy says about a thousand times, "until you feel beautiful.
snowflake fight-club-book yeah
Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can't teach God anything.
hate evil giving
Be famous. Be a big social experiment in getting what you don't want. Find value in what we've been taught is worthless. Find good in what the world says is evil. I'm giving you my life because I want the whole world to know you. I wish the whole world would embrace what it hates. Find what you're afraid of most and go live there.
people house matter
Jump to the day we'll all be dead and none of this will matter. Jump to the day another house will stand here and the people living there won't know we ever happened.
beautiful mother powerful
That's what I love about fire, how it would kill me as quick as anybody else. How it can't know I'm its mother. It's so beautiful and powerful and beyond feeling anything for anybody, that's what I love about fire.
years feelings might
Years of living in the hope that what you'll get will be better than what you have. Years of looking and feeling worse in the hope that you might look better.
people say-anything invisible-monsters
You can say anything if enough people will listen.
blue dollars velvet
Brandy is so attractive you could chop her head off and put it on blue velvet in the window at Tiffany's and somebody would buy it for a million dollars.
long firsts language
We've been speaking English as a second language so long that we've forgotten it as our first.
