“I write this sitting in the kitchen sink.”

“Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.”
― Nora Ephron

“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero

“These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite.
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.”
― William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
