You have to work to carve out your own little corner, and I’m certainly smacking my head against the wall trying to make a dent. I just hope I don’t get brain-damaged before I get there

I realized a career is built as much on what you don’t do as what you do do.

Built Careers Much Realized
If one person starts crying, I’ll cry. If one person has no money, I’ll give them mine. If I had a bicycle growing up, I always felt incredibly guilty when I see someone sitting at the bus stop.

I’m not attracted to dangerous men. I’m attracted, apparently, to height. One ex was 6’6; the one before was 6’4, then 6’3. I like freakishly tall people.

I don’t believe in rules. I would be happy to be climbing a pyramid when I’m 70. And I know I will be.

I like people who are fit. I figure if I work out, you can at least return the favor. Would I go out with a meathead? No.
