The born-yesterday French-besotted faddists, addicted sniffers of wet printer's ink, think they're starting on the ground floor; so they're condemned to another hundred years of trial and error. The rest of us can safely ignore them.
I don't know, it's dorky. Just like quotes and stuff. Something I want to see everyday or something I want to be there. I don't know. I can put a hole in the wall if I want. It's mine. It's very simple. It's a very tiny house, but I can do whatever I want to. I can rip up the terrible vinyl floor and recycle it. Just create a good space. A quiet place to be.
The American woman's concept of marriage is a clearly etched picture of something uninflated on the floor. A sleeping-bag withoutair, a beanbag without beans, a padded bra without pads.

If a woman isn't feeling sexual with herself, she won't respond to advances from any partner, male or female. When this woman goes dancing, she's finding a connection with her own erotic self. It might be about being on a dance floor, feeling free, not having to feel at all responsible for anybody else's well-being. For other people, it might be about going on a hike for four days by herself and reconnecting with nature and strength and endurance and beauty.
I loved being around live rocking music, but I never knew what to do with myself socially at a show or club. I discovered that the dance floor was the perfect place to hide in plain sight.
People have a different idea of how movies are made than they really are. On a certain level, everyone throws ideas into the hopper.

But truly, it is a room like any other, four glaring white walls and a dark hard floor, and if you don't try to get out, it is possible to remain in it. Once you tried to get out, you. . . couldn't. . . stand. . . it. Don't think of getting out.

Rachel, you take her,” my mother said, clearly uncomfortable. “She might like you. ” “No. Mom, no!” I protested, but it was my mother we were talking about, and it was either take the baby or have her hit the floor.

I got in a fight one time with a really big guy, and he said, 'I'm going to mop the floor with your face. ' I said, 'You'll be sorry. ' He said, 'Oh, yeah? Why?' I said, 'Well, you won't be able to get into the corners very well. '
