  • “What if you lived your entire life completely without urgency? You went to classes, you ate your meals, on Saturday nights a boy you didn’t love took you to the movies; now and then you actually had a conversation with someone. The rest of the time —the hours that weren’t accounted for—you spent waiting for something to happen to you; when you were particularly desperate, you went out looking for it.”
—   Joyce Johnson - Come and Join the Dance
