I really love idiot, enlightened characters - these characters who fail to engage with the drama of their immediate circumstances; they fail to be reactive and enrolled by drama as it happens around them.

We’d turn our lives into a terrible adventure. A true-life horror story with a happy ending. A trial we’d survive to talk about.

If emotion can create a physical action, then duplicating the physical action can re-create the emotion.

May I never be complete. May I never be content. May I never be perfect.

they should let some people into the library by prescription only

We kind of deny the stages of life.
