And when the right young man comes along, he'll love you all the more for giftin' this sad planet with your light."

You're in the scene, not just watching it anymore, and the sense of presence is overwhelming.”

“When people of color are killed in the inner city, when homeless people are killed, when the "nobodies" are killed, district attorneys do not seek to avenge their deaths.
