I can become someone else, not out of pressure and desperation, but merely because a new life sounds fun or interesting or joyful.

Inspiration needs disease, injury, madness.

The evil queen was stupid to play Snow White's game. There's an age where a woman has to move on to another kind of power. Money, for example. Or a gun.

If you don't know what you want, you end up with a lot you don't.

But if you tell folks you're a college student, folks are so impressed. You can be a student in anything and not have to know anything.

Even if you tell yourself "Today I'm going to drink coffee the wrong way ... from a dirty boot." Even that would be right, because you chose to drink coffee from that boot. Because you can do nothing wrong. You are always right. Even when you say, "I'm such an idiot, I'm so wrong..." you're right. You're right about being wrong. You're right even when you're an idiot. No matter how stupid your idea, you're doomed to be right because it's yours.
