"You broke me bodily. The heart ain't the half of it, And I'll never learn to laugh at it In my good natured way. In fact, I'm laughing less in general, But I learned a lot at my own funeral. And I knew you'd be the death of me, So I guess that's the price I pay."

-- Ani DiFranco

“When you're doing stand-up, you want to stand onstage and, to the extent that you can, uncomplicatedly entertain.”
