"In Like A Rat, Goldstone is in quite a mess. In a way, it’s a tale of being young and reckless and alive but also quite sad with wanting. The comparison to herself as a rat was well done: eating food out of the garbage, running around at the night, and noticed by passive-aggressive neighbors. The inclusion of the abortion and the tiredness that clung to her in the normality of life that day was touching." — Sep 06, 2026 05:43AM

“Life is tragic simply because the earth turns and the sun inexorably rises and sets, and one day, for each of us, the sun will go down for the last, last time. Perhaps the whole root of our trouble, the human trouble, is that we will sacrifice all the beauty of our lives, will imprison ourselves in totems, taboos, crosses, blood sacrifices, steeples, mosques, races, armies, flags, nations, in order to deny the fact of death, the only fact we have. It seems to me that one ought to rejoice in the fact of death--ought to decide, indeed, to earn one's death by confronting with passion the conundrum of life. One is responsible for life: It is the small beacon in that terrifying darkness from which we come and to which we shall return.”

“Lonely, ain't it?
Yes, but my lonely is mine. Now your lonely is somebody else's. Made by somebody else and handed to you. Ain't that something? A secondhand lonely.”
