“Dating becomes a cutthroat game of musical chairs with everyone scrambling for available partners to avoid standing alone at 30 when the music stops.”
Robyn Louis, Songs About Boys: The romantic musings and misadventures of my 20s

“A woman who is willing to be herself and pursue her own potential runs not so much the risk of loneliness as the challenge of exposure to more interesting men and people in general.”
Lorraine Hansberry

“When you're single, you are often buried in time, your mouth and eyes and ears stuffed with it.

Kate Bolick, Spinster: Making a Life of One's Own

“Dating becomes a cutthroat game of musical chairs with everyone scrambling for available partners to avoid standing alone at 30 when the music stops.”
