“Forget about showering with my fellow students in Tribeca Alternative’s prison-style showers—one nozzle for four to six girls at a time—in the locker room.
It was impossible to work up a sweat during what passed for physical education class at TAHS, so there was no need to shower, anyway.
Well, impossible for me, considering that, in the past, whenever a volleyball or whatever came near me,
I’d always make sure to step calmly away to avoid it.
See? No sweat. No need for a shower. Problem solved.”

“Of all the questions we leave unanswered the one that comes back to haunt us the most is: 'What if…'
What if I'd married my college sweetheart
What if I had the good sense not to?
What if I had been born in this job market?
What if...
What if I'd planned a little less?
What if I'd lived a little more?
What if I'd chucked it all and started my own company?
'What ifs' are never idle fantasy. These are our hopes, dreams and desires.
Logic and reason are the naphthalene balls we use to pack them away into a sandook called 'Someday'. But when that day comes we are too old, too poor, too tired or too lazy.”
