Patti Smith
“I had no concept of what life at the Chelsea Hotel would be like when we checked in, but I soon realized it was a tremendous stroke of luck to end up there. We could have had a fair-seized railroad flat in the East Village for what we were paying, but to dwell in this eccentric and damned hotel provided a sense of security as well as a stellar education. The goodwill that surrounded us was proof that the Fates were conspiring to help their enthusiastic children.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Barack Obama
“I suspect that God’s plan, whatever it is, works on a scale too large to admit our mortal tribulations; that in a single lifetime, accidents and happenstance determine more than we care to admit; and that the best we can do is to try to align ourselves with what we feel is right and construct some meaning out of our confusion, and with grace and nerve play at each moment the hand that we’re dealt.”
Barack Obama, A Promised Land

Patti Smith
“Sometimes I just wanted to raise my hands and stop. But stop what? Maybe just growing up.”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Patti Smith
“Christmas was coming and there was a pervasive melancholy, as if everyone simultaneously remembered they had nowhere to go. Even”
Patti Smith, Just Kids

Nita Prose
“My truth is not the same as yours because we don’t experience life in the same way.”
Nita Prose, The Maid
