All in the interest of it being cheap.

I watched the sheets breathe when she breathed, like how Dad used to say that trees inhale when people exhale, because I was too young to understand the truth about biological processes.

If people thought about food more like how we think about the environment, a lot of people would be eating differently and the whole system would look a lot different.

I regret that it takes a life to learn how to live.

Time was passing like a hand waving from a train that I wanted to be on.
