“Now she faced a gulf between career woman and happily retired with no straight path from here to there. A trace of worry ran up her spine, her career as a project planner”

Kathryn’s Quotes

“Rather than a fantasy of being rich and famous, which capitalism tells us is the goal of our lives, we cultivate a fantasy of everyone having what they need and being able to creatively express the beauty of their lives.”
