"No one but a fool is always right."

-- David Hare

“Francie was ten years old when she first found an outlet in writing. What she wrote was of little consequence. What was important was that the attempt to write stories kept her straight on the dividing line between truth and fiction. If she had not found this outlet in writing, she might have grown up to be a tremendous liar.”
“I do know the older I get, the more I'm referencing music I heard as a kid.”
“And if you're not going to have a clear health threat, you don't want to panic people.”
“We must enlist our own snake and strike like a cobra against their vitals with an attack on Washington.”
“My head is bursting with the joy of the unknown. My heart is expanding a thousand fold.”
“In its attempt to crush the Black Panthers, the FBI engineered frequent arrests on the flimsiest of pretexts.”
“It's not that I don't respect my parents' authority or appreciate all that they did for me, but when I was 18 I was able to move out, and I was out. I feel like a different person since then; I mean, it's obviously a big turning point in life. I feel like I've established myself, and I'm a smarter and more mature for it.”
“A thankful outlook smoothes the rough edges off life.”
