Find the extraordinary inside the ordinary.

Family, that slippery word, a star to every wandering bark, and everyone sailing under a different sky.

I was born too late for steam trains and a lazy eye meant I'd never be an astronaut.

It wasn't about believing this or that, it wasn't even about good and evil and right and wrong, it was about finding the strength to bear the discomfort that came with being in the world.

I knew there was a story; once you find a dog with a fork through it, you know there's a story there.

... why I like timetables, because they make sure I don't get lost in time.

Things can be funny when people are uneasy. It softens them up and stops them falling asleep on the sofa. I like those moments where people half-smile and half-wince.
