“You have to make friends with the dark.”

“Girl listens to radio. Girl finds music. Girl has whole other world.

Girl slips on headphones. World gone.”
― Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces

“Sometimes I feel like those guys in that weird play Hoffmeister made us read.

I think about what those two odd guys said.

You must go on.
I can’t go on.
You must go on.

Because what other choice is there, really?

You have to make friends with the dark.”
― Kathleen Glasgow, How to Make Friends with the Dark

“What’s really important is the essence of the life lived. A college degree isn’t going to tell me how well somebody lived, now is it? Does having a boat mean you lived a good life? Or a summerhouse? What about saving each valentine your son made or even working a roadside jam stand? A million, what do they call it?—selfies—on some silly website. What does it all mean, in the end?”
