“How had she become one of those people who wears yoga pants all day? She used to make fun of those people.

But there is no man with a hammer, and the happy go on living, just a little fluttered with the petty cares of every day, like an aspen-tree in the wind -- and everything is all right.”
― Anton Chekhov, Selected Stories of Anton Chekhov
