Most of life is so dull it is not worth discussing, and it is dull at all ages. When we change our brand of cigarette, move to a new neighborhood, subscribe to a different newspaper, fall in and out of love, we are protesting in ways both frivolous and deep against the not to be diluted dullness of day-to-day living.
Truman CapoteMany universities have asked me to come for a semester but I don't want to do it because I don't have the patience.
Truman CapoteYou know the days when you get the mean reds? Paul Varjak: The mean reds. You mean like the blues? Holly Golightly: No. The blues are because youโre getting fat, and maybe itโs been raining too long. Youโre just sad, thatโs all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly youโre afraid, and you donโt know what youโre afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?
