It's the distance between moving into the cul-de-sac and having your next door neighbor trust you to keep an eye on her preschool daughter for a few minutes while she runs out to the post office.

― Jodi Picoult, Sing You Home

“Believe me, Being gay is not a choice. Noone would choose to make life harder than it has to be.”
