Quotes by Lillian Stone (?)

“Gel pens weren’t invented until the mid-eighties. Still, think of how they might’ve jazzed up historical documents had they dawned in an earlier era. Imagine if the Founding Fathers had asserted man’s inalienable rights in bubble gum–scented gel ink.”
― Lillian Stone, Everybody's Favorite: Tales from the World’s Worst Perfectionist – A Wry and Self-Deprecating Essay Collection on Growing Up, Anxiety, and Religious Trauma
